Sorption phenomena in subsurface systems: Concepts, models and effects on contaminant fate and transport
TLDR
In this article, current levels of understanding of the reactions and processes comprising sorption phenomena are discussed, as well as the forms and utilities of different models used to describe them, and the translation of these concepts into functional models for characterizing sorption rates and equilibria.About:

Mechanisms of Slow Sorption of Organic Chemicals to Natural Particles
TL;DR: The use of equilibrium expressions for sorption to natural particles in fate and transport models is often invalid due to slow kinetics and diffusion limitations appear to play a major role.

Multiple‐Rate Mass Transfer for Modeling Diffusion and Surface Reactions in Media with Pore‐Scale Heterogeneity
Roy Haggerty,Steven M. Gorelick +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a multirate model is proposed to model small-scale variation in rates and types of mass transfer by using a series of first-order equations to represent each of the mass transfer processes.

Kinetics of adsorption of metal ions on inorganic materials: A review
TL;DR: An attempt has been made to discuss the kinetics of adsorption of metal ions on inorganic solids on the basis of published reports, and the values of the kinetic rate coefficients indicate the speed at which the metal ions adsorb on the materials.
