The catalytic properties of spores of a marine Bacillus known to oxidize divalent manganese were used to perform laboratory Mn(II) oxidation experiments at environmental conditions of pH and Mn(II) concentration. We found that at pH 7.8 the initial kinetics of Mn(II) oxidation facilitated by the spores was four orders of magnitude greater than that which would be expected for abiotic autocatalysis on a colloidal MnO2 surface. The rate progressively decreased as the spores became coated with manganese oxide, eventually becoming very near that predicted for abiotic surface catalysis. Transmission electron microscopic observations and oxidation state measurements of solids precipitated at pH 7.5 and [Mn(II)] < 50 nM indicated that the initial oxidation product was hausmannite (Mn3O4 or MnOx where x = 1.33) which aged to more highly oxidized MnO2 (x = 1.9) in the time scale of weeks. By utilizing spores to catalyze the oxidation rate, we were able to maintain our experimental system within the seawater range of pH and Mn(II) where highly oxidized manganese oxide precipitates are thermodynamically stable. In doing so we obtained, for the first time, laboratory precipitates with oxidation states similar to that found in marine particulate material. These results suggest that the concentration of manganese in seawater and the oxidation state of marine manganese oxides are controlled by the rapid precipitation of Mn3O4, which can be microbially mediated, followed by the disproportionation to MnO2.  相似文献

A novel manganese dioxide (MnO2) resin is suitable for the determination and decontamination of lead isotopes (208Pb, 207Pb, 206Pb) in aqueous solutions at trace concentrations. This is desirable due to the toxic nature and high abundance of lead in the environment. Current techniques are both time consuming, expensive and not suitable for low-level lead decontamination. The MnO2 resin has been demonstrated to pre-concentrate with extraction efficiency above 90% for a range of pH values, and with a mean extraction of 92.5% from fresh waters at a flow rate of 100?ml?min?1. The lead distribution coefficient is 1.3?×?104 (pH 7) with tolerance to calcium and sodium. Adsorption isotherms have been investigated and the resin shown to follow the Langmuir adsorption isotherm with a saturation point of 41.5?mg per g of MnO2 resin.  相似文献

The initial solid phase oxidation products formed during the oxidation of aqueous Mn(II) at 25°C were studied as a function of time. The analyses included morphology (TEM), mineralogy (x-ray diffraction), OMn ratio (iodometric method), oxidation state of manganese (XPS), and dissolved manganese. The initial solid formed under our conditions was Mn3O4 (hausmannite) which converted completely to γMnOOH (manganite) after eight months. βMnOOH (feitknechtite) appeared to be an intermediate in this transformation. The OMn ratio was initially 1.37 and increased to 1.49 over the same time span. Throughout the course of this study the XPS analyses showed that the surface of the solids (<50 Å) was dominated by Mn(III). The solution pH and dissolved manganese concentrations were consistent with disproportionation and oxidation reactions that favor the transformation of Mn3O4 to γMnOOH but not to γMnO2.  相似文献

Simultaneous in situ immobilisation of uranium (U) and radium (226Ra) by injectible amounts of grey cast iron (gcFe), nano-scale iron (naFe) and a gcFe/MnO2 mixture (1:1) was studied in batch and column tests. Both 0.5 g/L naFe and gcFe are effective in 226Ra and U removal from mine water, whereas MnO2 addition clearly increased the efficiency of gcFe for 226Ra and U immobilisation. In a column test with 0.6 wt% gcFe/MnO2 mixture (1:1), neither 226Ra nor U was detected in the effluent after replacement of 45 pore volumes. A sequential extraction under flow condition revealed 226Ra to be mostly occluded in manganese oxides. Uranium was mostly sorbed onto poorly crystalline iron hydroxides, but a significant part was found to be occluded in manganese oxides also. The results of this study suggest that MnO2 promotes iron hydroxide formation under slightly reducing environmental conditions resulting in an increased pollutant retention capacity.  相似文献

The sorption of silver by poorly crystallized manganese oxides was studied using synthesized samples of three members of the manganous manganite (birnessite) group, of different chemical composition and crystallinity, and a poorly organized γ-MnO2. All four oxides sorbed significant quantities of silver. The manganous manganites showed the greatest sorption (up to 0.5 moles silver/mole MnOx at pH 7) while the γ-MnO2 showed the least (0.3 moles silver/ mole MnOx at pH 7). Sorption of silver was adequately described by the Langmuir equation over a considerable concentration range. The relationship failed at low pH values and high equilibrium silver concentrations. The sorption capacity showed a direct relationship with pH. However, the rate of increase of sorption capacity decreased at the higher pH values.Silver sorption maxima. were not directly related to surface area but appeared to vary with the amount of occluded sodium and potassium present in the manganese oxide. The important processes involved in the uptake of silver by the four poorly crystallized manganese oxides ara considered to be surface exchange for manganese, potassium and sodium as well as exchange for structural manganese, potassium and sodium.  相似文献

Manganese oxides precipitated by bubbling air through 0.01 molar solutions of MnCl2, Mn(NO3)2, MnSO4, or Mn(ClO4)2 at a constantly maintained pH of 8.5 to 9.5 at temperatures of 25°C or higher consisted mainly of hausmannite, Mn3O4. At temperatures near 0°C, but with other conditions the same, the product is feitknechtite, βMnOOH, except that if the initial solution is MnSO4 and the temperature is near 0°C the product is a mixture of manganite, γMnOOH and groutite, αMnOOH.All these oxides are metastable in aerated solution and alter by irreversible processes to more highly oxidized species during aging. A two-step nonequilibrium thermodynamic model predicts that the least stable species, βMnOOH, should be most readily converted to MnO2. Some preparations of βMnOOH aged in their native solution at 5°C attained a manganese oxidation state of +3.3 or more after 7 months. Hausmannite aged at 25°C altered to γMnOOH. The latter is more stable than a or βMnOOH, and manganese oxidation states above 3.0 were not reached in hausmannite precipitates during 4 months of aging. Initial precipitation of MnCO3 rather than a form of oxide is likely only where oxygen availability is very low.Composition of solutions and oxidation state and morphology of solids were determined during the aging process by chemical analyses, X-ray and electron diffraction and transmission electron micrographs.  相似文献

Permanganate (MnO4−) has widely been used as an effective oxidant for drinking water treatment systems, as well as for in situ treatment of groundwater impacted by various organic contaminants. The reaction stoichiometry of As(III) oxidation by permanganate has been assumed to be 1.5, based on the formation of solid product, which is putatively considered to be MnO2(s). This study determined the stoichiometric ratio (SR) of the oxidation reaction with varying doses of As(III) (3-300 μM) and MnO4− (0.5 or 300 μM) under circumneutral pH conditions (pH 4.5-7.5). We also characterized the solid product that was recovered ∼1 min after the oxidation of 2.16 mM As(III) by 0.97 mM MnO4− at pH 6.9 and examined the feasibility of secondary heterogeneous As(III) oxidation by the solid product. When permanganate was in excess of As(III), the SR of As(III) to Mn(VII) was 2.07 ± 0.07, regardless of the solution pH; however, it increased to 2.49 ± 0.09 when As(III) was in excess. The solid product was analogous to vernadite, a poorly crystalline manganese oxide based on XRD analysis. The average valence of structural Mn in the solid product corresponded to +III according to the splitting interval of the Mn3s peaks (5.5 eV), determined using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The relative proportions of the structural Mn(IV):Mn(III):Mn(II) were quantified as 19:62:19 by fitting the Mn2p3/2 spectrum of the solid with the five multiplet binding energy spectra for each Mn valence. Additionally, the O1s spectrum of the solid was comparable to that of Mn-oxide but not of Mn-hydroxide. These results suggest that the solid product resembled a poorly crystalline hydrous Mn-oxide such as (MnII0.19MnIII0.62MnIV0.19)2O3·nH2O, in which Mn(II) and Mn(IV) were presumably produced from the disproportionation of aqueous phase Mn(III). Thermodynamic calculations also show that the formation of Mn(III) oxide is more favorable than that of Mn(IV) oxide from As(III) oxidation by permanganate under circumneutral pH conditions. Arsenic(III), when it remained in the solution after all of the permanganate was consumed, was effectively oxidized by the solid product. This secondary heterogeneous As(III) oxidation consisted of three steps: sorption to and oxidation on the solid surface and desorption of As(V) into solution, with the first step being the rate-limiting process as observed in As(III) oxidation by various Mn (oxyhydr)oxides reported elsewhere. We also discussed a potential reaction pathway of the permanganate oxidation of As(III).  相似文献

The competitive binding of rare earth elements (REE) to purified humic acid (HA) and MnO2 was studied experimentally using various HA/MnO2 ratios over a range of pH (3 to 8). MnO2, humic acid and REE solutions were simultaneously mixed to investigate the kinetics of the competitive reactions. Aqueous REE–HA complex is the dominant species whatever the experiment time, pH and HA/MnO2 ratio. The value of the distribution coefficients between MnO2 and solution (log KdRee/Mno2) increases with the HA/MnO2 ratio, indicating that part of the REE–HA complexes are adsorbed onto MnO2. The development of a Ce anomaly appears strongly limited in comparison with inorganic experimental conditions. Throughout the experimental run time, for HA/MnO2 ratios of less than 0.4, MnO2 acts as a competitor leading to a partial dissociation of the REE–HA complex. The majority of the dissociated REE is readsorbed onto the MnO2 surface. The readsorption of REE is expressed by an increased Ce anomaly on the log KdRee/Mno2 pattern as well as a change in shape of the coefficient distribution of REE between soluble HA and solution pattern (log KdRee/HA decrease for the heavy rare earth elements — HREE). Thus, REE are not only bound to MnO2 as a REE–HA complex, but also as REE(III). Moreover, the competition between HA and MnO2 for REE binding is shown to be higher at low pH (< 6) and low DOC/Mn ratio. This study partially confirms previous work that demonstrated the control of REE adsorption by organic matter, while shedding more light on the impact of pH as well as complexation reaction competition on long-term REE partitioning between solid surface and organic solutions. The latter point is important as regards to REE speciation under conditions typical of rock and/or mineral alteration.  相似文献

Strong enrichments of cobalt occur in marine manganese nodules, soils, wads, and natural and synthetic minerals such as hollandite, cryptomelane, psilomelane, lithiophorite, birnessite, and δ-MnO2. Previously, it was suggested that Co3+ ions in these minerals replace either Mn3+ or substitute for Fe3+ in incipient goethite epitaxially intergrown with δ-MnO2. Neither of these interpretations is now considered to be satisfactory on account of the large discrepancy of ionic radius between octahedrally coordinated low-spin Co3+ and high-spin Mn3+ or Fe3+ in oxide structures. The close agreement between the ionic radii of Co3+ and Mn4+ suggests that some cobalt substitutes for Mn4+ ions in edge-shared [MnO6] octahedra in many manganese(IV) oxide mineral structures. It is proposed that hydrated cations, including Co2+ ions, are initially adsorbed on to the surfaces of certain Mn(IV) oxides in the vicinity of essential vacancies found in the chains or sheets of edge-shared [MnO6] octahedra. Subsequently, fixation of cobalt takes place as a result of oxidation of adsorbed Co2+ ions by Mn4+ and replacement of the displaced manganese by low-spin Co3+ ions in the [MnO6] octahedra or vacancies.  相似文献

Chromium (Cr) is a heavy metal that exists in soils in two stable oxidation states, +III and +VI. The trivalent species is an essential nutrient, whereas the hexavalent species is highly toxic. This study investigated the environmental impact of CrIII potentially released into soil from wastes and various materials by determining the risk of oxidation of initially soluble inorganic CrIII into hazardous CrVI. The principal aim was to describe the pH-dependent mechanisms that regulate 1) the formation of CrVI from the easily soluble CrIII and 2) the potential bioavailability of CrIII and that of CrVI species produced in the oxidation of CrIII in agricultural soil (fine sand, organic carbon 3.2%). The amount of CrVI formed in oxic soil conditions was regulated by two counteracting reactions: 1) oxidation of CrIII into CrVI by manganese oxide (MnIVO2) and 2) the subsequent reduction of CrVI by organic matter back to CrIII. The effect of pH on this net-oxidation of CrIII and on the chemical availability of both CrIII and CrVI species was investigated in soil samples incubated with or without excessive amounts of synthetic MnO2, over the chemically adjusted pH range of 3.9–6.3 (+22 °C, 47 d). In soil subsamples without added MnO2, the net-oxidation of CrIII into CrVI (1 mM CrCl3 in soil suspensions, 1:10 w/V) was negligible. As for the MnO2-treated soils, at maximum only 4.7% of added CrIII was oxidized – regardless of the high oxidation potential of these subsamples. The lowest production of CrVI was observed under acidic soil conditions at pH ∼4. At low pH, the net-oxidation diminished as result of enhanced reduction of CrVI back to CrIII. At higher pHs, the oxidation was limited by enhanced precipitation (or adsorption) of CrIII, which lowered the overall amount of CrIII susceptible for oxidation. Moreover, the oxidation reactions by MnO2 were inhibited by formation of Cr(OH)3 coverage on its surface. The pH-dependent chemical bioavailability of added CrIII differed from that of the CrVI formed. At elevated pHs the chemical availability of CrIII decreased, whereas that of CrVI produced increased. However, the risk of CrVI formation through oxidation of the easily soluble inorganic CrIII was considered to be low in agricultural soils high in organic matter and low in innate MnO2.  相似文献

Oxidation of As(III) by natural manganese (hydr)oxides is an important geochemical reaction mediating the transformation of highly concentrated As(III) in the acidic environment such as acid mine drainage (AMD) and industrial As-contaminated wastewater, however, little is known regarding the presence of dissolved Fe(II) on the oxidation process. In this study, oxidation of As(III) in the absence and presence of Fe(II) by MnO2 under acidic conditions was investigated. Kinetic results showed that the presence of Fe(II) significantly inhibited the removal of As(III) (including oxidation and sorption) by MnO2 in As(III)-Fe(II) simultaneous oxidation system even at the molar ratio of Fe(II):As(III) = 1/64:1, and the inhibitory effects increased with the increasing ratios of Fe(II):As(III). Such an inhibition could be attributed to the formation of Fe(III) compounds covering the surface of MnO2 and thus preventing the oxidizing sites available to As(III). On the other hand, the produced Fe(III) compounds adsorbed more As(III) and the oxidized As(V) on the MnO2 surface with an increasing ratio of Fe(II):As(III) as demonstrated in kinetic and XPS results. TEM and EDX results confirmed the formation of Fe compounds around MnO2 particles or separated in solution in Fe(II) individual oxidation system, Fe(II) pre-treated and simultaneous oxidation processes, and schwertmannite was detected in Fe(II) individual and Fe pre-treated oxidation processes, while a new kind of mineral, probably amorphous FeOHAs or FeAsO4 particles were detected in Fe(II)-As(III) simultaneous oxidation process. This suggests that the mechanisms are different in Fe pre-treated and simultaneous oxidation processes. In the Fe pre-treated and MnO2-mediated oxidation pathway, As(III) diffused through a schwertmannite coating formed around MnO2 particles to be oxidized. The newly formed As(V) was adsorbed onto the schwertmannite coating until its sorption capacity was exceeded. Arsenic(V) then diffused out of the coating and was released into the bulk solution. The diffusion into the schwertmannite coating and the oxidation of As(III) and sorption of both As(V) and As(III) onto the coating contributed to the removal of total As from the solution phase. In the simultaneous oxidation pathway, the competitive oxidation of Fe(II) and As(III) on MnO2 occurred first, followed by the formation of FeOHAs or FeAsO4 around MnO2 particles, and these poorly crystalline particles of FeOHAs and FeAsO4 remained suspended in the bulk solution to adsorb As(III) and As(V). The present study reveals that the formation of Fe(III) compounds on mineral surfaces play an important role in the sorption and oxidation of As(III) by MnO2 under acidic conditions in natural environments, and the mechanisms involved in the oxidation of As(III) depend upon how Fe(II) is introduced into the As(III)-MnO2 system.  相似文献

To understand the retention of As on a natural manganese sand, the structural, textural and chemical properties of the solid were first investigated by combining scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), electron-energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), BET N2 gas adsorption, diffuse reflectance Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis. Manganese sand could be mainly described as a mixture of a phyllomanganate, lithiophorite [(Al,Li)MnO2(OH)2], and pyrolusite (MnO2). Iron particle, kaolinite and gibbsite type-phases were also observed. Particles organization led to the presence of a mesoporosity with pore diameters ranging from 100 to 200 Å and a specific surface area of 23 m2 g−1. Contact with an As(V) solution (0.67 mmol L−1) led to an average fractional surface coverage of 0.4. Both As (V) and (III) were present on the surface of the sand in a 1:1 ratio. As(V) was sorbed on lithiophorite-type particles through surface complexation type reaction. As(III) was thought to result from As(V) reduction mechanism on iron particles.  相似文献

The variation of major and rare earth elements and yttrium (REY) in the monomictic hardwater Lake Tiberias during the wet and dry seasons of the hydrological year was studied in two profiles. The average volume and Cl concentration of the known and unknown saline inflows of 1.6 × 107 m3 and 1.2 × 109 mol are derived by closing both balances. This brine corresponds to a mixture of 83% of groundwater from Cretaceous aquifers and 17% of very saline deep brine. Taking cycling of calcite in the hypolimnion into account, the settling rate of authigenic calcite is estimated to be 3.3 mol m−2 a−1.In the stratified lake of the dry season dissolved inorganic carbon increases by 490 μM at the thermo-/chemocline due to microbial reduction of SO42−, NO3−, chemical reduction of Fe(III) and MnO2 colloids, and cycling of calcite in the hypolimnion. REY distribution in the stratified water column is dominantly controlled by coprecipitation with calcite, hydrous ferric oxides and MnO2 in the epilimnion and cycling of these compounds in the hypolimnion. The positive Ce anomaly in the hypolimnetic water is produced by cycling of MnO2. The simulation of the increase of REY in the hypolimnion reveals that hydrous ferric and manganese oxides only play a negligible role except Ce. Only about 10% of REY from cycled matter enhance REY in solution. Most of the released REY are adsorbed by particular matter and thus settling on the floor of the lake.Different from Na, U, SO42− and SiO2, the other elements, in particular REY, increase in the mixed water column from the top to the lower third and mostly decrease thereafter toward the bottom in the mixed lake during the wet season. The behavior of REY is caused by some cycling of calcite and pH-dependent re-equilibration of REY bound to hydrous ferric and manganese oxides adsorbed by particular matter.  相似文献

电解二氧化锰废渣中的重金属元素在雨水淋滤下,通过地表径流对下游水生态系统及农业生态系统造成不同程度的环境污染和安全隐患,因此,准确测定电解二氧化锰废渣浸出液中的重金属元素含量具有重要的现实意义。电解二氧化锰废渣浸出液中的重金属元素含量通常很低,采用原子吸收光谱法、电感耦合等离子体发射光谱法测定,检出限通常难以满足测定要求。采用电感耦合等离子体质谱法(ICP-MS)测定,消除复杂质谱干扰面临挑战。本文采用电感耦合等离子体串联质谱(ICP-MS/MS)测定电解二氧化锰废渣浸出液中的重金属元素含量。电解二氧化锰废渣中6种重金属元素Cr、Ni、As、Cd、Hg、Pb经硫酸和硝酸混合酸浸出后直接采用ICP-MS/MS进行测定,利用串联质谱的O_2反应模式消除分析过程中Cr、Ni、As、Cd受到的质谱干扰,通过考察不同分析模式下~(52)Cr、~(60)Ni、~(75)As、~(111)Cd的背景等效浓度(BEC),评价质谱干扰对分析结果的影响。结果表明:在MS/MS模式下选择O_2为反应气,采用质量转移法和原位质量法可以消除~(52)Cr、~(60)Ni、~(75)As、~(111)Cd的所有质谱干扰。Cr、Ni、As、Cd、Hg、Pb检出限分别为3.06、9.31、3.50、2.72、2.03、1.89ng/L,加标回收率在95.6%～106.2%之间,相对标准偏差(RSD)≤3.9%。所建立的方法已应用于电解二氧化锰废渣浸出液中重金属元素的测定。  相似文献

The paper presents the results of study of ferromanganese carbonate rocks in the Sob area (Polar Urals), which is located between the Rai-Iz massif and the Seida–Labytnangi Railway branch. These rocks represent low-metamorphosed sedimentary rocks confined to the Devonian carbonaceous siliceous and clayey–siliceous shales. In terms of ratio of the major minerals, ferromanganese rocks can be divided into three varieties composed of the following minerals: (1) siderite, rhodochrosite, chamosite, quartz, ± kutnahorite, ± calcite, ± magnetite, ± pyrite, ± clinochlore, ± stilpnomelane; (2) spessartite, rhodochrosite, and quartz, ± hematite, ± chamosite; (3) rhodochrosite, spessartite, pyroxmanite, quartz ± tephroite, ± fridelite, ± clinochlore, ± pyrophanite, ± pyrite. In all varieties, the major concentrators of Mn and Fe are carbonates (rhodochrosite, siderite, kutnahorite, Mn-calcite) and chlorite group minerals (clinochlore, chamosite). The chemical composition of rocks is dominated by Si, Fe, Mn, carbon dioxide, and water (L.O.I.): total SiO2 + Fe2O 3 tot + MnO + L.O.I. = 85.6?98.4 wt %. The content of Fe and Mn varies from 9.3 to 55.6 wt % (Fe2O 3 tot + MnO). The Mn/Fe ratio varies from 0.2 to 55.3. In terms of the aluminum module AlM = Al/(Al + Mn + Fe), the major portion of studied samples corresponds to metalliferous sediments. The δ13Ccarb range (–30.4 to–11.9‰ PDB) corresponds to authigenic carbonates formed with carbon dioxide released during the microbial oxidation of organic matter in sediments at the dia- and/or catagenetic stage. Ferromanganese sediments were likely deposited in relatively closed seafloor zones (basin-traps) characterized by periodic stagnation. Fe and Mn could be delivered from various sources: input by diverse hydrothermal solutions, silt waters in the course of diagenesis, river discharges, and others. The diagenetic delivery of metals seems to be most plausible. Mn was concentrated during the stagnation of bottom water in basin-traps. Interruption of stagnation promoted the precipitation of Mn. The presence of organic matter fostered a reductive pattern of postsedimentary transformations of metalliferous sediments. Fe and Mn were accumulated initially in the oxide form. During the diagenesis, manganese and iron oxides reacted with organic matter to make up carbonates. Relative to manganese carbonates, iron carbonates were formed under more reductive settings and higher concentrations of carbon dioxide in the interstitial solution. Crystallization of manganese and iron silicates began already at early stages of lithogenesis and ended during the regional metamorphism of metalliferous sediments.  相似文献

Manganese carbonate can be converted to many kinds of manganese oxides when it is aerated in air and oxygen.Pure manganese carbonate can be changed into Mn3O4 and γ-MnOOH,and manganese carbonate ore can be converted to MnO2 under the air-aerating and oxygen-aerating circumstances.The oxidation process of manganese carbonate is a changing process of mineral association,and is also a converting process of valence of manganese itself.Not only equilibrium stat,but also nonequilibrium state are involved in this whole process,This process is an irreversible heterogeneous complex reaction,and oberys the nonequilibrium thermodynamic model,The oxidation rate of manganese cabonate is controlled by many factors,especially nonmanganese metallic ions which play an important role in the oxidation process of manganese carbonate.  相似文献

The crystal chemistry of Ni- and Co-bearing manganese oxides (lithiophorite and asbolane) has been investigated by X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy (XAS). The Mn oxides come from the lateritic weathering profiles of the ultrabasites of New Caledonia. The distinct behaviours of Ni and Co concern both oxidation states and local structures.The electronic structure and short range order around Co atoms do not depend on the nature of the Cocontaining phase. Co atoms are trivalent and 6-fold coordinated. Co-(O, OH) and Co-(Co, Mn) interatomic distances derived from EXAFS are equal to those found around Mn atoms which rules out the possibility of an adsorption of Co atoms directly above and below vacancies of MnO2 layers. The high structural order around Co contrasts with the structural disorder observed around Mn. Cobalt atoms do not occupy specific Mn sites and are not randomly distributed within the octahedral Mn layers.Unlike Co, Ni exhibits distinct surroundings in both phases. In asbolane, Ni atoms build partial Ni(OH)2 layers. Ni-OH distances are lower as compared with the free Ni hydroxide because of the formation of hydrogen bonds between Ni(OH)2 and MnO2 layers. In lithiophorite Ni atoms are located in the hydrargillite layer (Al(OH)3). Both chemical composition and structural considerations militate for a Ni for Li substitution in lithiophorite. Finally, evidence is given for the existence of a mixed-layering between lithiophorite and asbolane and the chemical variations generally observed in these Mn oxides are interpreted as a variable proportion of (Mn, Co)(O, OH2, Ni(OH)2 and (Al, Li, Ni)(OH)3 layers.  相似文献

Manganoan ilmenite was identified in Juina, Brazil kimberlitic rocks among other megacrysts. It forms oval, elongated, rimless grains comprising 8–30 wt.% of the heavy fraction. Internally the grains are homogeneous. The chemical composition of Mn-ilmenite is almost stoichiometric for ilmenite except for an unusually high manganese content, with MnO = 0.63–2.49 wt.% (up to 11 wt.% in inclusions in diamond) and an elevated vanadium admixture (V2O3 = 0.21–0.43 wt.%). By the composition, Mn-ilmenite megacrysts and inclusions in diamond are almost identical. The concentrations of trace elements in Mn-ilmenite, compared to picroilmenite, are much greater and their variations are very wide. Chondrite-normalized distribution of trace elements in Mn-ilmenite megacrysts is similar to the distribution in Mn-ilmenites included in diamond. This confirms that Mn-ilmenite in kimberlites is genetically related to diamond. The finds of Mn-ilmenite known before in kimberlitic and related rocks are late- or postmagmatic, metasomatic phases. They either form reaction rims on grains of picroilmenite or other ore minerals, or compose laths in groundmass. In contrast to those finds, Mn-ilmenite megacrysts in Juina kimberlites are a primary mineral phase with a homogeneous internal structure obtained under stable conditions of growth within lower mantle and/or transition zone. In addition to pyrope garnet, chromian spinel, picroilmenite, chrome-diopside, and magnesian olivine, manganoan ilmenite may be considered as another kimberlite/diamond indicator mineral.  相似文献

Manganese oxides, typically similar to δ-MnO2, form in the aquatic environment at near neutral pH via bacterially promoted oxidation of Mn(II) species by O2, as the reaction of [Mn(H2O)6]2+ with O2 alone is not thermodynamically favorable below pH of ~?9. As manganese oxide species are reduced by the triphenylmethane compound leucoberbelein blue (LBB) to form the colored oxidized form of LBB (λmax?=?623 nm), their concentration in the aquatic environment can be determined in aqueous environmental samples (e.g., across the oxic–anoxic interface of the Chesapeake Bay, the hemipelagic St. Lawrence Estuary and the Broadkill River estuary surrounded by salt marsh wetlands), and their reaction progress can be followed in kinetic studies. The LBB reaction with oxidized Mn solids can occur via a hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) reaction, which is a one-electron transfer process, but is unfavorable with oxidized Fe solids. HAT thermodynamics are also favorable for nitrite with LBB and MnO2 with ammonia (NH3). Reactions are unfavorable for NH4+ and sulfide with oxidized Fe and Mn solids, and NH3 with oxidized Fe solids. In laboratory studies and aquatic environments, the reduction of manganese oxides leads to the formation of Mn(III)-ligand complexes [Mn(III)L] at significant concentrations even when two-electron reductants react with MnO2. Key reductants are hydrogen sulfide, Fe(II) and organic ligands, including the siderophore desferioxamine-B. We present laboratory data on the reaction of colloidal MnO2 solutions (λmax?~?370 nm) with these reductants. In marine waters, colloidal forms of Mn oxides (<?0.2 µm) have not been detected as Mn oxides are quantitatively trapped on 0.2-µm filters. Thus, the reactivity of Mn oxides with reductants depends on surface reactions and possible surface defects. In the case of MnO2, Mn(IV) is an inert cation in octahedral coordination; thus, an inner-sphere process is likely for electrons to go into the empty e g * conduction band of its orbitals. Using frontier molecular orbital theory and band theory, we discuss aspects of these surface reactions and possible surface defects that may promote MnO2 reduction using laboratory and field data for the reaction of MnO2 with hydrogen sulfide and other reductants.  相似文献

Differential infrared studies indicate that interlayer hydroxyl ions are present in some manganese nodules where δMnO2 or 10Å manganite form the predominant mineralogical phase. In fossil ferromanganese sediments δMnO2 appears to be essentially dehydrated. Due to the poor spectral resolution and band overlap caused by mineral impurities, infrared spectroscopy offers little promise for identifying nodule mineralogy.  相似文献
