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.

An in situ quick-EXAFS and redox potential study of the Fe(II)-catalysed transformation of ferrihydrite

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the kinetics of the Fe(II)-accelerated conversion of ferrihydrite to goethite using quick-scanning X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) and measured the associated changes in oxidation reduction potential (ORP).
Journal ArticleDOI

Abiotic U(VI) reduction by sorbed Fe(II) on natural sediments

TL;DR: In this article, the extent of 57Fe oxidation decreased with increasing 57Fe(II) uptake, such that 98% was oxidized at 7.3μmol/g Fe and 41% at 39.6% of Fe, indicating that the sediments had a limited capacity for oxidation of Fe(II).
Journal ArticleDOI

QSAR study of the reduction of nitroaromatics by Fe(II) species.

TL;DR: Results of experiments in which the surface area loading of ferric oxides was systematically varied indicate that the reactivity of mineral-surface-associated Fe( II), Fe(II)surf, toward the reduction of p-cyanonitrobenzene (CNNB) decreased in the order hematite > goethite > lepidocrocite > ferrihydrite and the surface density did not play a crucial role in determining the observed reactivity trend.

Mineral- and Base-Catalyzed Hydrolysis of Organophosphate Flame Retardants: Potential Major Fate-Controlling Sink in Soil and Aquatic Environments.

TL;DR: Hydrolysis of six OPFRs and three structural analogues in the absence and presence of metal (hydr)oxide minerals suggests that mineral-catalyzed hydrolysis may be a major fate-controlling sink in natural environments.
Journal ArticleDOI

Uranium(VI) interactions with mackinawite in the presence and absence of bicarbonate and oxygen.

TL;DR: Near-neighbor coordination consisting of uranium-oxygen and uranium-uranium distances indicates the formation of uraninite in the presence and absence of bicarbonate, suggesting reductive precipitation as the dominant removal mechanism.
