TLDR
In this article, the authors investigated the kinetic effect of specific adsorption interactions on the chemical reduction of uranyl (UVIO22+) by ferrous iron, and derived a rate law for surface-catalyzed U(VI) reduction by Fe(II), d[U(VI)] dt =−k[≡ Fe III OFe II OH 0 ][U( VI)] ads where the bimolecular rate constant k has a value of 399 ± 25 M−1 min−1 at 25°C.

Biogeochemical aspects of uranium mineralization, mining, milling, and remediation

TL;DR: A review of the hydrometallurgical processes by which U is extracted from ore, the biogeochemical processes that can affect the fate and transport of U and associated elements in the environment, and possible remediation strategies for site closure and aquifer restoration can be found in this paper.

Distinguishing Abiotic and Biotic Transformation of Tetrachloroethylene and Trichloroethylene by Stable Carbon Isotope Fractionation

TL;DR: Reactions were investigated by calculation of the apparent kinetic isotope effect for carbon (AKIEc), and the results suggest that differences in isotope fractionation for abiotic and microbial dechlorination resulted from the differences in rate-limiting steps during the de chlorination reaction.

Iron Oxide Surface-Catalyzed Oxidation of Ferrous Iron by Monochloramine: Implications of Oxide Type and Carbonate on Reactivity

TL;DR: The kinetics of the reactions between Fe(II) and monochloramine in the presence of a variety of iron oxide surfaces are examined, finding differences in the activity of these oxides to result from variations in the amount of Fe( II) sorbed to each of the oxides and to dissimilarities in the surface site densities of the Oxides.

Photoinduced oxidation of arsenite to arsenate in the presence of goethite.

TL;DR: Results suggested that in the oxic environment ferrous iron, which formed via the photoinduced oxidation of As(III) in the presence of goethite, was heterogeneously oxidized to ferric iron by dissolved oxygen.

Biogenic U(IV) oxidation by dissolved oxygen and nitrate in sediment after prolonged U(VI)/Fe(III)/SO42− reduction

TL;DR: Examination of the effect of different oxidants on biogenic U(IV) oxidation in sediment that experienced significant sulfate reduction in addition to Fe(III) and U(VI) reduction found increased pore water channeling, which was more pronounced during oxidation with nitrate.
