Journal ArticleDOI
Role of metal-reducing bacteria in arsenic release from Bengal delta sediments
Farhana Islam,Andrew G. Gault,Christopher Boothman,David A. Polya,John M. Charnock,John M. Charnock,Debashis Chatterjee,Jonathan R. Lloyd +7 more
TL;DR: It is shown that anaerobic metal-reducing bacteria can play a key role in the mobilization of arsenic in sediments collected from a contaminated aquifer in West Bengal and that, for the sediments in this study, arsenic release took place after Fe(iii) reduction, rather than occurring simultaneously.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reactive azo dye reduction by Shewanella strain J18 143.
Carolyn I. Pearce,Carolyn I. Pearce,Robert Christie,Christopher Boothman,Harald von Canstein,James T. Guthrie,Jonathan R. Lloyd +6 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that whole cells of Shewanella J18 143 offer several advantages over other biocatalysts with the potential to treat azo dyes, including nitrate, pH, temperature, substrate concentration, and presence of an extracellular mediator.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of Progressive Anoxia on the Solubility of Technetium in Sediments
Ian T. Burke,Christopher Boothman,Jonathon R. Lloyd,Robert J.G. Mortimer,Francis R. Livens,Katherine Morris +5 more
TL;DR: X-ray absorption spectroscopy confirmed that TcO4- removal was due to reduction to hydrous Tc(IV)O2 in Fe(III)- and sulfate-reducing estuarine sediments and that a cascade of stable-element terminal-electron-accepting processes developed in microcosms due to indigenous microbial activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reoxidation behavior of technetium, iron, and sulfur in estuarine sediments
Ian T. Burke,Christopher Boothman,Jonathan R. Lloyd,Francis R. Livens,John M. Charnock,Joyce M. McBeth,Robert J.G. Mortimer,Katherine Morris +7 more
TL;DR: Results suggest that Tc reoxidation behavior is not directly coupled to Fe or S oxidation and that the extent of Tc remobilization is dependent on the nature of the oxidant.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microcosm depth profiles of arsenic release in a shallow aquifer, West Bengal
Andrew G. Gault,Farhana Islam,David A. Polya,John M. Charnock,John M. Charnock,Christopher Boothman,Debashis Chatterjee,Jonathan R. Lloyd +7 more
TL;DR: Arsenic mobilization and Fe(III) reduction in acetate-amended sediments collected from a range of depths from an aquifer with elevated groundwater arsenic concentrations in West Bengal were monitored over a 1 month period as mentioned in this paper.
