TLDR
The 2011 WHO Guidelines for Drinking-Water Quality (fourth edition) advised a health-based value of 70μg/L for Mo but this is no longer promulgated as a formal guideline value as WHO consider such concentrations to be rarely found in drinking water as discussed by the authors.

Cadmium in soils and groundwater: A review.

TL;DR: The elevated mobilization potential, e.g., through competition and ligand induced desorption, is the reason for faster Cd release from soil into groundwater than other heavy metals.

The impact of igneous bedrock weathering on the Mo isotopic composition of stream waters: Natural samples and laboratory experiments

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of igneous crustal rock weathering on the aquatic δ 98 / 95 Mo signal was investigated by comparing stream water and bedrock Mo isotope data to results of bulk rock leach experiments.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molybdenum-Doped Manganese Oxide as a Highly Efficient and Economical Water Oxidation Catalyst

TL;DR: In this paper, a facile co-precipitation method, followed by thermal postsynthetic treatment in N2/air, was developed to synthesize molybdenum-doped α-Mn2O3 materials.

Molybdenum Burial Mechanism in Sulfidic Sediments: Iron-Sulfide Pathway

TL;DR: In this paper, the composition and stability of colloidal FeMoS4 precipitates formed at mildly basic pH and H2S(aq) > 10-5 M were determined.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Sealing Step in Aluminum Anodizing: A Focus on Sustainable Strategies for Enhancing Both Energy Efficiency and Corrosion Resistance

TL;DR: In this paper, the second highest energy consuming step in aluminum anodization and a step with significant environmental impacts has been critical reviewed in this systematic review, focusing on the need to reduce both the energy input in the anodic oxide process and environmental implications.

Role of the rumen in copper and thiomolybdate absorption

TL;DR: Evidence is provided that in the absence of available Cu all classes of thiomolybdates can be absorbed into the animal rapidly though the rumen wall or via the small intestine and that the tetra-thiomolybdate form is the most potent Cu binder with decreased potency with decreasing S in the compound.

Geochemical and anthropogenic enrichments of Mo in sediments from perennially oxic and seasonally anoxic lakes in Eastern Canada

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors measured the vertical distributions of Mo, Fe, Mn, sulfide, sulfate, organic carbon, major ions, and pH in sediment porewater from one perennially oxic and three seasonally anoxic lacustrine basins in Eastern Canada, as well as those of Mo and acid volatile sulfide in sediment cores from the same sites.

Reduction of molybdate by sulfate-reducing bacteria.

TL;DR: It is suggested that the occurrence of poorly crystalline Mo-sulfides in black shale may be a result from SRB reduction and selective enrichment of Mo in paleo-seawater.

Molybdenum Adsorption by Aluminum and Iron Oxides and Humic Acid

Allan Bibak, +1 more
- 12 Oct 1994 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the adsorption of molybdenum(VI) by synthetic aluminum oxide, ferrihydrite, goethite, extracted humic acid and a sandy soil sample was determined as a function of Mo concentration (0-1.2 mmol/L) and pH (3.5-8).

Tracing euxinia by molybdenum concentrations in sediments using handheld x-ray fluorescence spectroscopy (HHXRF)

TL;DR: In this article, a handheld x-ray absorption spectroscopy (HHXRF) on both rock-powders and rock surfaces provides a powerful tool for laboratory or field-based, geochemical characterization of molybdenum content and the tracing of euxinic depositional conditions.
