Hydroxamate siderophores are biologically-synthesized, Fe(III)-specific ligands which are common in soil environments. In this paper, we report an investigation of their adsorption by the iron oxyhydroxide, goethite; their influence on goethite dissolution kinetics; and their ability to affect Pb(II) adsorption by the goethite surface. The siderophores used were desferrioxamine B (DFO-B), a fungal siderophore, and desferrioxamine D1, an acetyl derivative of DFO-B (DFO-D1). Siderophore adsorption isotherms yielded maximum surface concentrations of 1.5 (DFO-B) or 3.5 (DFO-D1) μmol/g at pH 6.6, whereas adsorption envelopes showed either cation-like (DFO-B) or ligand-like (DFO-D1) behavior. Above pH 8, the adsorbed concentrations of both siderophores were similar. The dissolution rate of goethite in the presence of 240 μM DFO-B or DFO-D1 was 0.02 or 0.17 μmol/g hr, respectively. Comparison of these results with related literature data on the reactions between goethite and acetohydroxamic acid, a monohydroxamate ligand, suggested that the three hydroxamate groups in DFO-D1 coordinate to Fe(III) surface sites relatively independently. The results also demonstrated a significant depleting effect of 240 μM DFO-B or DFO-D1 on Pb(II) adsorption by goethite at pH > 6.5, but there was no effect of adsorbed Pb(II) on the goethite dissolution rate.  相似文献

The effects of a number of inorganic anions (F−, HCO3 −, B(OH)4−, Cl−, I−) and of the siderophore DFO-B on the release of As from volcanic rocks were investigated in batch experiments. While previously reported field and laboratory data support a role of inorganic anions on As mobilization into aquifers, the role of siderophores on As-induced mobilization was less investigated. Fluoride, bicarbonate and DFO-B have shown a significant influence on the release of As from the rocks. Lava was mostly affected among the investigated rocks at pH 6 and 20°C by releasing 4% of its initial As content in the presence of 0.01 M F−and 10% in the presence of 500 μM DFO-B. The effect of fluoride was larger at pH 6 than at pH 8.5 for all the rocks. In the case of DFO-B, there was also a larger effect at pH 6 compared to pH 8 for the various rocks except tuff. Bicarbonate played a role under alkaline conditions while its effect was negligible at pH 6. Anion exchange processes in the presence of fluoride and bicarbonate and complexation processes in the presence of the siderophore DFO-B appear to be the major processes responsible for the release of arsenic from the rocks. The siderophore DFO-B plays mainly an indirect role on the As release by complexing Al, Fe and Mn, thus favoring the dissolution of the rocks and the consequent release of As bound to surface Al, Fe and Mn oxy-hydroxides. These findings suggest that ionic interactions with fluoride, bicarbonate and siderophore may be a further triggering factor in the mobilization of As from aquifer rocks.  相似文献

Microorganisms and higher plants produce biogenic ligands, such as siderophores, to mobilize Fe that otherwise would be unavailable. In this paper, we study the stability of arsenopyrite (FeAsS), one of the most important natural sources of arsenic on Earth, in the presence of desferrioxamine (DFO-B), a common siderophore ligand, at pH 5. Arsenopyrite specimens from mines in Panasqueira, Portugal (100-149 μm) that contained incrustations of Pb, corresponding to elemental Pb as determined by scanning electron microscopy-electron diffraction spectroscopy (SEM-EDX), were used for this study. Batch dissolution experiments of arsenopyrite (1 g L−1) in the presence of 200 μM DFO-B at initial pH (pH0) 5 were conducted for 110 h. In the presence of DFO-B, release of Fe, As, and Pb showed positive trends with time; less dependency was observed for the release of Fe, As, and Pb in the presence of only water under similar experimental conditions. Detected concentrations of soluble Fe, As, and Pb in suspensions containing only water were found to be ca. 0.09 ± 0.004, 0.15 ± 0.003, and 0.01 ± 0.01 ppm, respectively. In contrast, concentrations of soluble Fe, As, and Pb in suspensions containing DFO-B were found to be 0.4 ± 0.006, 0.27 ± 0.009, and 0.14 ± 0.005 ppm, respectively. Notably, the effectiveness of DFO-B for releasing Pb was ca. 10 times higher than that for releasing Fe. These results cannot be accounted for by thermodynamic considerations, namely, by size-to-charge ratio considerations of metal complexation by DFO-B. As determined by SEM-EDX, elemental sample enrichment analysis supports the idea that the Fe-S subunit bond energy is limiting for Fe release. Likely, the mechanism(s) of dissolution for Pb incrustations is independent and occurs concurrently to that for Fe and As. Our results show that dissolution of arsenopyrite leads to precipitation of elemental sulfur, and is consistent with a non-enzymatic mineral dissolution pathway. Finally, speciation analyses for As indicate variability in the As(III)/As(V) ratio with time, regardless of the presence of DFO-B or water. At reaction times <30 h, As(V) concentrations were found to be 50-70%, regardless of the presence of DFO-B. These results are interpreted to indicate that transformations of As are not imposed by ligand-mediated mechanisms. Experiments were also conducted to study the dissolution behavior of galena (PbS) in the presence of 200 μM at pH0 5. Results show that, unlike arsenopyrite, the dissolution behavior of galena shows coupled increases in pH with decreases in metal solubility at t > 80 h. Oxidative dissolution mechanisms conveying sulfur oxidation bring about the production of {H+}. However, dissolution data trends for arsenopyrite and galena indicate {H+} consumption. It is plausible that the formation of Pb species is dependent on {H+} and {OH−}, namely, stable surface hydroxyl complexes of the form (pH50 5.8) and for pH values 5.8 or above.  相似文献

Most studies agree that the dissolution rate of aluminosilicates in the presence of oxalic and other simple carboxylic acids is faster than the rate with non-organic acid under the same pH. However, the mechanisms by which organic ligands enhance the dissolution of minerals are in debate. The main goal of this paper was to study the mechanism that controls the dissolution rate of kaolinite in the presence of oxalate under far from equilibrium conditions (−29 < ΔGr < −18 kcal mol−1). Two types of experiments were performed: non-stirred flow-through dissolution experiments and batch type adsorption isotherms. All the experiments were conducted at pH 2.5-3.5 in a thermostatic water-bath held at a constant temperature of 25.0, 50.0 or 70.0 ± 0.1 °C. Kaolinite dissolution rates were obtained based on the release of silicon and aluminum at steady state. The results show good agreement between these two estimates of kaolinite dissolution rate. At constant temperature, there is a general trend of increase in the overall dissolution rate as a function of the total concentration of oxalate in solution. The overall kaolinite dissolution rates in the presence of oxalate was up to 30 times faster than the dissolution rate of kaolinite at the same temperature and pH without oxalate as was observed in our previous study. Therefore, these rate differences are related to differences in oxalate and aluminum concentrations. Within the experimental variability, the oxalate adsorption at 25, 50, and 70 °C showed the same dependence on the sum of the activities of oxalate and bioxalate in solution. The change of oxalate concentration on the kaolinite surface (Cs,ox) as a function of the sum of the activities of the oxalate and bioxalate in solution may be described by the general adsorption isotherm:

Bio-related techniques have been proved to be efficient and specific in eliminating impure minerals such as goethite, hematite and kaolinite from aluminum hydroxides in bauxite processing. In this study, the bacterium Paenibacillus polymyxa (P. polymyxa) mediated dissolution and flotation of bauxite were experimentally investigated. To disclose the contribution of adhered bacteria to these two processes, comparative experiments were designed, with one (and the other not) being dialyzed to prevent cells from contacting with bauxite. The results show that all the release rates of Al, Fe and Si are accelerated by the involvement of bacteria during 11 experimental days. More Al, Si and especially Fe are leached out in contact trial than in dialysis trial, and simultaneously, a large amount of Si-enriched flocs are formed. Further analysis indicates that with the adhesion of P. polymyxa and high molecular weight metabolites, Fe minerals are much more dissolvable than kaolinite. However, kaolinite can be floated easily with the mediation of adhered bacteria and metabolites. This study suggests that in bauxite biobeneficiation, sufficient contact between microbes and bauxite can facilitate the elimination of impurities such as iron and silicon.  相似文献

Biotite dissolution under conditions of high pH and high aluminum, sodium, and nitrate concentrations analogous to those found in tank wastes at the Hanford Site was investigated using continuously stirred flow-through reactors at 22 to 25 °C. Experiments were designed to simulate tank leaks into the Hanford vadose zone where Fe(II) from biotite is the dominant reducing agent available to immobilize certain contaminants. Both non-steady-state and steady-state dissolution kinetics were quantified; interest in non-steady-state kinetics derives from the inherently transitory nature of tank leaks. Biotite was conditioned in pH 8 solutions to simulate the alkaline environment of the Hanford sediment, and then reacted in pH 10-14 solutions, some including 0.055 M Al(NO3)3 and/or 2 M or 6 M NaNO3. Initial dissolution transients (intervals of rapid release rates that decay to slower steady-state rates) showed fast preferential release of K followed by near-stoichiometric release of Si, Al, and Mg, and slower release of Fe. Each increase in pH resulted in a second transient with the greatest amounts of Si, Al, and K released at pH 14, followed by pHs 13, 12, 11, and 10. Fe release also was highest at pH 14, but unchanging at pHs 10-13 within experimental error. Transient releases at high pH are attributed to dissolution of amphoteric secondary phases such as ferrihydrite that are inferred from saturation calculations and solid analyses to form during the conditioning interval. Transient release of Si was inhibited by the presence of 0.055 M Al(NO3)3; the effects of Al(NO3)3 and NaNO3 on the release rates of Al, Fe, Mg, and K were variable and generally outweighed by the effect of pH. Quasi-steady-state release rates were slowest at pH 11-12 (10−12.2 mol biotite m−2 s−1 for Si) and increased in either direction in pH away from this minimum (to 10−11.5 at pHs 8 and 14 for Si). Fe release rates at high pH were sufficient to account for observed Cr(VI) reduction at Hanford. The net release rates of the major framework cations, from which the biotite dissolution rate is inferred, may reflect the precipitation of secondary phases or the alteration of biotite to vermiculite. The most extensive solid-phase alterations were observed in Na-enriched solutions.  相似文献

This article reports an investigation of the temperature dependence of goethite dissolution kinetics in the presence of desferrioxamine B (DFO-B), a trihydroxamate siderophore, and its acetyl derivative, desferrioxamine D1 (DFO-D1). At 25 and 40°C, DFO-D1 dissolved goethite at twice the rate of DFO-B, whereas at 55°C, the behavior of the two ligands was almost the same. Increasing the temperature from 25 to 55°C caused little or no significant change in DFO-B or DFO-D1 adsorption by goethite. A pseudo-first-order rate coefficient for dissolution, calculated as the ratio of the mass-normalized dissolution rate coefficient to the surface excess of siderophore, was approximately the same at 25 and 40°C for both siderophores. At 55°C, however, this rate coefficient for DFO-D1 was about half that for DFO-B. Analysis of the temperature dependence of the mass-normalized dissolution rate coefficient via the Arrhenius equation led to an apparent activation energy that was larger for DFO-B than for DFO-D1, but much smaller than that reported for the proton-promoted dissolution of goethite. A compensation law was found to relate the pre-exponential factor to the apparent activation energy in the Arrhenius equation, in agreement with what has been noted for the proton-promoted dissolution of oxide minerals and for the complexation of Fe3+ by DFO-B and simple hydroxamate ligands in aqueous solution. Analysis of these results suggested that the siderophores adsorb on goethite with a only single hydroxamate group in bidentate ligation with an Fe(III) center.  相似文献

Previous research by our group (e.g., [Chem. Geol. 132 (1996) 25; Geochim. Cosmochim. Acta 64 (2000) 1363]) has shown that an aerobic Pseudomonas mendocina bacterium enhances Fe(hydr)oxide dissolution in order to obtain Fe under Fe-limited conditions. The P. mendocina is incapable of utilizing Fe as a terminal electron acceptor and requires several orders of magnitude lower Fe concentrations than do dissimilatory Fe reducing bacteria. The research reported here compared the effects of the P. mendocina on dissolution of well and poorly ordered Clay Minerals Society Source Clay kaolinites KGa-1b and KGa-2, respectively, under Fe-limited conditions. KGa-1b and KGa-2 contain 0.04 and 0.94 bulk wt.% Fe, respectively, and their surface Fe/Si atomic RATIOS=0.008 and 0.012. Following strong cleaning of the kaolinites in 5.8 M HCl at 85 °C, the surface Fe/Si atomic ratios decreased to 0.004 and 0.008, respectively. Both kaolinites also developed a Si-enriched surface precipitate upon strong cleaning.

Because the P. mendocina take up Fe, we could not measure Fe release from the kaolinite directly, but rather had to monitor it indirectly by comparing microbial populations sizes under Fe-limited growth conditions. We found that microbial growth on uncleaned, weakly cleaned, and strongly cleaned kaolinites increased with the amount of Fe readily available to organic ligands as estimated by dissolution in 0.001 M oxalate (pH 3). This suggests that it is the amount of readily accessible Fe that controls Fe acquisition and hence microbial growth. The trend is based on only a relatively small range of kaolinite Fe contents, and the research thus needs to be expanded to include kaolinites with a broader range of bulk and surface Fe concentrations.

Significant enhancement of Al release was observed in the presence of the bacteria, along with generally some enhancement of Si release. This enhancement of kaolinite dissolution could be related to an observed pH increase from 7–8 to 9 in the presence of the bacteria and/or to production of Al chelating agents. The P. mendocina produce a variety of organic exudates, including siderophores [Chem. Geol. 132 (1996) 25; Geomicrobiology (2001b)], and further studies into the effects of the siderophores on Al complexation and on kaolinite dissolution are ongoing.  相似文献

高岭石对重金属离子的吸附机理及其溶液的pH条件   总被引：14，自引：0，他引：14  
高岭石对Cu^2+,Pb^2+离子的吸附实验及高岭石的溶解实验表明,高岭石对重金属离子的吸附有别于石英单一表面配位模式,离子交换和表面配位模式并存,并随溶液pH由酸性往碱性的变化发生规律性的演替：pH<6.5时主要表现为外圈层配位的离子交换吸附,且在pH<4时由于受到高岭石表层中铝的高溶出及溶液中较高离子强度的影响,高岭石对Cu^2+,Pb^2+离子的吸附率较低,pH为5～6时由于高岭石端面的荷电性为近中性,吸附率则有明显的提升并且表现为一个吸附平台;pH>6.5时离子交换和表面配位均为重要吸附机制,pH再升高时沉淀机制则起着重要作用。研究表明,pH调控高岭石-水界面溶解与质子化-去质子化反应过程,并影响着Cu^2+,Pb^2+离子的吸附行为。最后采用Sverjensky(1993)表面配位的物理模型对吸附结果作了描述。  相似文献

The main goal of this paper is to propose a new rate law describing the combined effect of pH (1 to 4.5) and temperature (25 to 70 °C) on smectite dissolution rate, under far from equilibrium conditions, as a step towards establishing the full rate law of smectite dissolution under acidic conditions. Dissolution experiments were carried out using non-stirred flow-through reactors fully immersed in a thermostatic water bath held at a constant temperature of 25.0°C, 50.0°C or 70.0°C ± 0.1°C. Smectite dissolution rates were obtained based on the release of silicon and aluminum at steady state. The results show good agreement between these two estimates of smectite dissolution rate. Low Al/Si ratios were obtained in experiments that were conducted at pH ≥4. These low Al/Si ratios are explained by precipitation of gibbsite and/or diaspore.Dissolution rate increases with temperature and decreases with increasing pH. Dissolution rates of experiments in which ΔGr ≤ −21 kcal mol −1, are not affected by deviation from equilibrium. Dissolution rates in most experiments are not affected by the addition of up to 0.3 M NaNO3 to the input solution.A simple model is used to describe the combined effect of pH and temperature on smectite dissolution rate. According to this model, dissolution rate is linearly proportional to the concentration of adsorbed protons on the mineral surface, and proton adsorption is described using a Langmuir adsorption isotherm. All experimental results at pH <4 were fitted to the model using a multiple non-linear regression. The resulting rate law is:

Weathering experiments using biotite and phlogopite in the presence of bacteria were conducted to better understand biotic dissolution kinetics and processes (proton- and ligand-promoted dissolution) under aerobic conditions. Miniature batch reactors (300 μl in microplate wells) were used at 24 °C for 3 days with and without bacterial strains. Abiotic experiments were performed with organic and nitric acids in order to calibrate the biotite-phlogopite chemical dissolution. An empirical model was used to fit the pH dependence for iron release rate (rFe) considering the influence of both protons and ligands from acidic to neutral conditions (pH ranging from 3 to 7): rFe=kH(aH+)m+kL(aL)1 where k is the apparent rate constant, aH+ and aL are the activities of protons and ligands, and m and l are the reaction orders. For both minerals in most cases at a given pH, the iron release rates in the presence of bacteria were in good agreement with rates determined by the chemical model and could be explained by a combination of proton- and ligand-promoted processes. Bacteria affect mineral dissolution and iron release rates through the quantities and nature of the organic acids they produce. Three domains were differentiated and proposed as biochemical models of mica dissolution: (1) below pH 3, only proton-promoted dissolution occurred, (2) in weakly acidic solutions both ligand- and proton-promoted mechanisms were involved, and (3) iron immobilization occured, at pH values greater than 4 for biotite and greater than 5 for phlogopite. This model allows us to distinguish the “weathering pattern phenotypes” of strains. Bacteria that are isolated from horizons poor in carbon appear more efficient at weathering micas than bacterial strains isolated from environments rich in carbon. Moreover, our results suggest that the mineral could exert a control on the release of organic acids and the “weathering pattern phenotypes” of bacteria.  相似文献

The dissolution rate of illite, a common clay mineral in Australian soils, was studied in saline-acidic solutions under far from equilibrium conditions. The clay fraction of Na-saturated Silver Hill illite (K1.38Na0.05)(Al2.87Mg0.46Fe3+0.39Fe2+0.28Ti0.07)[Si7.02Al0.98]O20(OH)4 was used for this study. The dissolution rates were measured using flow-through reactors at 25 ± 1 °C, solution pH range of 1.0-4.25 (H2SO4) and at two ionic strengths (0.01 and 0.25 M) maintained using NaCl solution. Illite dissolution rates were calculated from the steady state release rates of Al and Si. The dissolution stoichiometry was determined from Al/Si, K/Si, Mg/Si and Fe/Si ratios. The release rates of cations were highly incongruent during the initial stage of experiments, with a preferential release of Al and K over Si in majority of the experiments. An Al/Si ratio >1 was observed at pH 2 and 3 while a ratio close to the stoichiometric composition was observed at pH 1 and 4 at the higher ionic strength. A relatively higher K+ release rate was observed at I = 0.25 in 2-4 pH range than at I = 0.01, possibly due to ion exchange reaction between Na+ from the solution and K+ from interlayer sites of illite. The steady state release rates of K, Fe and Mg were higher than Si over the entire pH range investigated in the study. From the point of view of the dominant structural cations (Si and Al), stoichiometric dissolution of illite occurred at pH 1-4 in the higher ionic strength experiments and at pH ?3 for the lower ionic strength experiments. The experiment at pH 4.25 and at the lower ionic strength exhibited lower RAl (dissolution rate calculated from steady state Al release) than RSi (dissolution rate calculated from steady state Si release), possibly due to the adsorption of dissolved Al as the output solutions were undersaturated with respect to gibbsite. The dissolution of illite appears to proceed with the removal of interlayer K followed by the dissolution of octahedral cations (Fe, Mg and Al), the dissolution of Si is the limiting step in the illite dissolution process. A dissolution rate law showing the dependence of illite dissolution rate on proton concentration in the acid-sulfate solutions was derived from the steady state dissolution rates and can be used in predicting the impact of illite dissolution in saline acid-sulfate environments. The fractional reaction orders of 0.32 (I = 0.25) and 0.36 (I = 0.01) obtained in the study for illite dissolution are similar to the values reported for smectite. The dissolution rate of illite is mainly controlled by solution pH and no effect of ionic strength was observed on the dissolution rates.  相似文献

Siderophore-promoted iron acquisition by microorganisms usually occurs in the presence of other organic molecules, including biosurfactants. We have investigated the influence of the anionic surfactant sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) on the adsorption of the siderophores DFOB (cationic) and DFOD (neutral) and the ligand EDTA (anionic) onto goethite (α-FeOOH) at pH 6. We also studied the adsorption of the corresponding 1:1 Fe(III)-ligand complexes, which are products of the dissolution process. Adsorption of the two free siderophores increased in a similar fashion with increasing SDS concentration, despite their difference in molecule charge. In contrast, SDS had little effect on the adsorption of EDTA. Adsorption of the Fe-DFOB and Fe-DFOD complexes also increased with increasing SDS concentrations, while adsorption of Fe-EDTA decreased. Our results suggest that hydrophobic interactions between adsorbed surfactants and siderophores are more important than electrostatic interactions. However, for strongly hydrophilic molecules, such as EDTA and its iron complex, the influence of SDS on their adsorption seems to depend on their tendency to form inner-sphere or outer-sphere surface complexes. Our results demonstrate that surfactants have a strong influence on the adsorption of siderophores to Fe oxides, which has important implications for siderophore-promoted dissolution of iron oxides and biological iron acquisition.  相似文献

The reactivity of iron(III) oxyhydroxides as reflected by their tendency to dissolve is of great importance in the redox cycling of iron and the bioavailability of iron to phytoplankton in natural waters. In this study, various iron(III) oxyhydroxides were produced by oxygenation of iron(II) in the presence of solutes, such as phosphate, sulfate, bicarbonate, valeric acid, TRIS, humic and fulvic acids, and in the presence of minerals, such as bentonite and δ-Al2O3 under conditions encountered in aquatic systems. The reactivity of the different iron(III) oxyhydroxides was subsequently assessed by means of a reductive dissolution using ascorbate and non-reductive dissolution using HQS (8-hydroxyquinoline-5-sulfonic acid) or oxalate. The experimental results show that the iron(III) oxyhydroxides with a low degree of polymerization exhibit higher reactivity than those with a high degree of polymerization or with high crystallinity. The quantity of active surface sites and the coordination arrangement of the functional groups at the surface of the iron(III) oxyhydroxides, especially the extent of the endstanding -OH groups per iron(III) ion determine the reactivity of iron(III) oxyhydroxides toward dissolution.Surfaces, such as clay and aluminum oxides, not only accelerate the oxygenation reaction of iron(II), but also induce the formation of iron(III) oxyhydroxides which are more active toward the dissolution reactions. Polymerization of iron(III) oxyhydroxides on the surfaces occurs predominantly in two dimensions rather than in three dimensions.In a laboratory experiment, the iron(III) oxyhydroxide formed in the presence of TRIS can be reduced by fulvic acid in a closed system under the following conditions: Fe(OH)3(s) 0.01 g/l, fulvic acid 5 mg/l, pH 7.5, 20°C. The kinetics of the reaction depend on the reactivity of iron(III) oxyhydroxide and reducing power of fulvic acid. Although reductants other than fulvic acid may be of importance in antural waters, this result provides the laboratory evidence that the >FeIII-OH/Fe(II) is able to act as an electron transfer mediator for the oxidation of natural organic substances, such as fulvic acid, by molecular oxygen either in the absence of microorganisms or as a supplement to microbial activity.  相似文献

Microorganisms play an important role in As mobilization into groundwater by directly influencing As speciation or indirectly inducing solubilisation from As-bearing phases, such as Fe, Mn and Al oxides. Iron oxide dissolution could also be induced by siderophores, small-molecule compounds produced by microorganisms to favour Fe uptake. Well waters exceeding the potable water limit of 10 μg As L−1 (0.133 μM) have been widely reported in geothermal areas. Mechanisms responsible for these high As concentrations have not yet been thoroughly elucidated and the complexity of As mobilization in volcanic aquifers is still open to multiple interpretations. The present study was based on batch release experiments aimed at verifying and quantifying the effect of siderophores on As mobilization from volcanic rocks (lava, tuff, peperino and fallout deposit) at different pH and ligand concentration. In the experiments the siderophore trihydroxamate desferroxamine B (Dfob) was used and its effect on As release from volcanic rocks was manifest after the first days. The most favourable pH for As release was pH 6 while concentrations above 250 μM Dfob considerably enhanced As and Fe concentrations in solution. The As release from rocks was between 2.0–10% at pH 6 and 2.4–8.8% at pH 8. The As/Fe ratio in solution changed with time suggesting different release mechanisms and higher mobility of As compared to Fe during the first phase of the experiment. The presence of siderophore increased Fe dissolution rates up to 10 orders of magnitude. The As release correlated with Al, Mn, Fe, Si, V, Ga and Sb and the release of all these elements increased with increasing Dfob concentration. In alkaline environments also Cu, Zn and Pb were mobilized. The presence of siderophores represents a possible trigger for As mobilization from iron binding minerals to the water phase, with interesting implications for groundwater quality, plant uptake and bacterial communities.  相似文献

A study of the pattern of dissolution of synthetic and natural Fe oxides in 6 M HCl indicates that the rate of element release from synthetic Fe oxides is strongly influenced by mineralogy and the level of element incorporation. Synthetic maghemite (γ-Fe2O3) samples are subject to much more rapid dissolution than goethite (FeOOH) and hematite (α-Fe2O3). In samples dominated by hematite and maghemite, Cu, Zn and particularly Pb, in comparison to Fe, are preferentially released during the early stages of dissolution. Similar patterns are apparent from the dissolution of hematite- and maghemite-dominated samples derived from natural gossan. Comparison of XRD scans with data from the dissolution of natural gossan samples transformed by incremental heating to hematite- and maghemite-dominated assemblages suggests that the degree of crystallinity may also be a significant factor in the release of elements incorporated in the Fe oxides. Ferruginous materials made up of varying proportions of goethite, hematite, maghemite, kaolinite and quartz are important sampling materials in a range of regolith environments. These are products of complex chemical and mechanical mobilization over long periods of geological time. If the patterns of Fe oxide dissolution in 6 M HCl and the release of incorporated metals reflect stability in such weathering regimes, knowledge of the retention characteristics of incorporated metals in different Fe oxide phases, as indicated by this study, will be useful in the planning and interpretation of geochemical surveys in such regions.  相似文献

Clay minerals from different Cretaceous stratigraphic successions of Egypt were investigated using XRD,DTA,dissolution analysis(DCB),IR,Moessbauer and X-band Electron Spin Resonance(ESR) spectroscopies.The purity of the samples and the degree of structural order were determined by XRD.The location of Fe in the octahedral sheet is characterized by absorption bands at-875cm^-1 assigned as Al-OH-Fe which is present after chemical dissolution of free iron.The Moessbauer spectra of these clays sow two doublets with isomer shift and quadrupole splitting typical of octahedral coordinated Fe^3 ,in addition to third doubler with hyperfine parameter typical of Fe^2 in the spectra of Abu-Had kaolinite (H)sample.6-lines magnetic hyperfine components which are consistent with those of hematite are confirmed in the spectra of both Isel and Rish kaolinite samples.Goethite was confirmed by both IR and DTA.Multiple nature of ESR of these clays suggested structural Fe in distorted octaedral symmetry and as non-structural Fe.Little dispersion and low swelling indices as well as incomplete activaiton of investigated montmorillonite samples by NaCO3 appear to be due to incomplete disaggregation of montmorillonite particles.This can be explained by the ability of Fe-gel to aggregate the montmorillonite into pseudo-particles and retard the rigid-gel structure.However,extraction of this ferric amorphous compound by dithonite treatment recovers the surface properties of the montmorillonite samples.On the other hand,amounts and site occupation of Fe associated with kaolinite samples show a negative correlation with the parameters used to describe the degree of crystalline perfection,color,brightness and vitrification range of these kaolinite samples.  相似文献
