TLDR
In this paper, the authors measured the adsorption isotherms in solutions with ionic strengths of 0.01 at 25°C and measured over the arsenite and arsenate concentration range 10−7−10−3 M and the pH range 4−10.

A review of the source, behaviour and distribution of arsenic in natural waters

TL;DR: The scale of the problem in terms of population exposed to high As concentrations is greatest in the Bengal Basin with more than 40 million people drinking water containing ‘excessive’ As as mentioned in this paper.

Comparison of arsenic(V) and arsenic(III) sorption onto iron oxide minerals: implications for arsenic mobility.

TL;DR: The sorption data indicate that, under most of the chemical conditions investigated in this study, reduction of As(V) in the presence of HFO or goethite would have only minor effects on or even decrease its mobility in the environment at near-neutral pH conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Arsenite and Arsenate Adsorption on Ferrihydrite: Kinetics, Equilibrium, and Adsorption Envelopes

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared the adsorption behavior of arsenite and arsenate on ferrihydrite, under carefully controlled conditions, with regard to adaption kinetics and the influence of pH.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mechanisms of Arsenic Adsorption on Amorphous Oxides Evaluated Using Macroscopic Measurements, Vibrational Spectroscopy, and Surface Complexation Modeling.

TL;DR: In this study in situ Raman and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopic methods were combined with sorption techniques, electrophoretic mobility measurements, and surface complexation modeling to study the interaction of As(III) and As(V) with amorphous oxide surfaces.

Surface chemistry of ferrihydrite: Part 1. EXAFS studies of the geometry of coprecipitated and adsorbed arsenate

TL;DR: In this article, the As and Fe K-edges were collected from samples of two-line ferrihydrite with adsorbed (ADS) and coprecipitated (CPT) arsenate prepared over a range of conditions and arsenate surface coverages.

Surface ionization and complexation at the oxide/water interface

TL;DR: In this article, a method for determination of intrinsic ionization and complexation constants of oxide surface sites from potentiometric titration data is reported using these experimental properties and the stoichiometry of surface reactions, surface charge, σo, adsorption density, Γi, and diffuse layer potentials, ψd, at the oxide/water interface.
Journal ArticleDOI

A review of the arsenic cycle in natural waters

TL;DR: A review of the occurrence and cycling of arsenic in fresh waters is presented in this paper, where the possible microbially-mediated reactions of arsenic, including oxidation of arsenite, methylation of arsenic species, and reduction of arsenate, are discussed with reference to the locale of the reaction in the water column or in the sediments.
Journal ArticleDOI

Multiple-site adsorption of cd, cu, zn, and pb on amorphous iron oxyhydroxide

TL;DR: In this paper, the strength of binding between a given metal and the surface may vary by an order of magnitude or more from one site to another, suggesting that the surface is composed of many groups of binding sites.
Journal ArticleDOI

Methylated Forms of Arsenic in the Environment

TL;DR: Environmental samples were analyzed for arsenate and arsenite ions and the methylarsenic acids in nanogram amounts and Dimethylarsinic acid and methylarsonic acid were found in natural waters, bird eggshells, seashells, and human urine.
