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
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.

Ion binding to natural organic matter : competition, heterogeneity, stoichiometry and thermodynamic consistency
David G. Kinniburgh,Willem H. van Riemsdijk,Luuk K. Koopal,Michal Borkovec,Marc F. Benedetti,Marcelo Javier Avena +5 more
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.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of humic acid adsorption on pH-dependent surface charging and aggregation of magnetite nanoparticles
Erzsébet Illés,Etelka Tombácz +1 more
TL;DR: The pH-dependent adsorption of humic acid (HA) on magnetite and its effect on the surface charging and the aggregation of oxide particles were investigated and nanoparticles are stabilized in a way of combined steric and electrostatic effects.

TL;DR: The literature findings reveal that dEfOM removal by advanced treatment processes depends on the type and the amount of organic compounds present in the aqueous matrix, as well as the operational parameters and the removal mechanisms taking place during the application of each treatment technology.
Journal ArticleDOI
In situ high resolution measurements of fluxes of ni, cu, fe, and mn and concentrations of zn and cd in porewaters by dgt
TL;DR: In this article, diffusion gradients in thin films (DGT) was used to measure in situ fluxes of metals at fine spatial resolution (1.25 mm) in the surface sediments (029 cm) and immediately overlying water of Esthwaite Water, UK.

Dynamic speciation analysis and bioavailability of metals in aquatic systems
Herman P. van Leeuwen,Raewyn M. Town,Jacques Buffle,R.F.M.J. Cleven,William Davison,Jaume Puy,Willem H. van Riemsdijk,Laura Sigg +7 more
TL;DR: It is shown that a common dynamic interpretation framework, based on rigorous flux expressions incorporating the relevant diffusion and reaction steps, is applicable for a suite of sensors that span a range of time scales.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biogeochemical controls on metal behaviour in freshwater environments
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors consider the biological influence on metal behavior in aqueous environments and propose a mechanistic approach to understand the mechanisms underlying metal dynamics, which encompasses both the geochemical and biological components of this dynamic and complex cycle.

Predicting the bioavailability of metals and metal complexes: Critical review of the biotic ligand model
TL;DR: A review of the fundamental basis of the Biotic Ligand Model (BLM) can be found in this article, where several documented examples of failures of the BLM are discussed.
