Mercury speciation in Galveston Bay, Texas: the importance of complexation by natural organic ligands

Seunghee Han
TL;DR: Han et al. as discussed by the authors developed a competitive ligand equilibration-solvent solvent extraction (CLE-SSE) method to determine organically complexed mercury species in estuarine water.

Determinação de carbaril utilizando testes ELISA (Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) e CLAE com detecção por arranjo de diodos

TL;DR: In this article, the results suggested that the high fulvic acid concentration (ž³30 mg L-1) and acidic pH conditions (pH 4.0) interfere with the signal detection decreasing the method sensitivity.

Dendroremediation of Trinitrotoluene (TNT). Part 2: Fate of TNT in Morphological Compartments of Trees

TL;DR: In this paper, the long-term existence of the environmental contaminant 2,4,6trinitrotoluene (TNT) and the necessity for the use of trees in sustainable phytoremediation strategies are described in the first part of this paper.

Chemisch/biologische Testmethoden zur Abschätzung des Umweltverhaltens

TL;DR: In this paper, Bordg et al. present a Prozeβ der Entcalcifizierung relativ langsam fortschreitet, in Zusammenhang mit reifung von Sedimenten, wachsenden Sedimentationsraten and zunehmender Entwasserung beobachtet.

The role of inorganic colloids in the transport of toxic metals through the environment

TL;DR: Inorganic colloids are considered as potential transporters of toxic metals in the geosphere as mentioned in this paper, and if inorganic colloid are stable and able to adsorb toxic metals they may improve their apparent solubility.

WHAM—a chemical equilibrium model and computer code for waters, sediments, and soils incorporating a discrete site/electrostatic model of ion-binding by humic substances

E. Tipping
TL;DR: The WHAM (Windermere Humic Aqueous Model) as mentioned in this paper is a simple inorganic speciation code for aqueous solutions that combines Humic Ion-Binding Model V with a simple, inorganic inorganic specciation code.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ion binding to natural organic matter : competition, heterogeneity, stoichiometry and thermodynamic consistency

TL;DR: The NICCA-Donnan model as mentioned in this paper is a semi-empirical model that is similar to the NICA-donnan model except that it introduces an additional degree of scaling that ensures thermodynamic consistency and allows for variable stoichiometry of binding, which implicitly accounts for the large degree of chemical heterogeneity of humic particles.
Journal ArticleDOI

A unifying model of cation binding by humic substances

TL;DR: Model V describes the binding of ions by humic substances in terms of complexation at discrete sites, modified by electrostatic attraction and/or repulsion, and also takes account of nonspecific binding due to counterion accumulation.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Generalized Description of Aquatic Colloidal Interactions: The Three-colloidal Component Approach

TL;DR: In this article, the physicochemical properties of the different groups of colloids are described, and the role of each colloid class is discussed with respect to homoaggregation (aggregation within a given colloid) and hetero-aggregation among different colloid types.
