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.

Uranium mobility in organic matter-rich sediments: A review of geological and geochemical processes

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors identify U-OM bond values that are in agreement, relatively strong, independent from ionic strength and which may facilitate either U mobilisation or immobilisation, depending on environmental conditions.

Microbial reduction of iron(III) oxyhydroxides: effects of mineral solubility and availability

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the microbial reduction kinetics of Fe(III) iron oxyhydroxides and found that the solubility appears to be a rate-controlling parameter in both the abiotic and enzymatic reduction.

Redox Transformation of Arsenic by Fe(II)-Activated Goethite (α-FeOOH)

TL;DR: In the simultaneous presence of Fe(III) oxyhydroxides and Fe(II), as commonly observed in environments inhabited by iron-reducing microorganisms, As( III) oxidation can occur, which potentially explains the presence of As(V) in reduced groundwater aquifers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reduction of Polyhalogenated Methanes by Surface-Bound Fe(II) in Aqueous Suspensions of Iron Oxides

TL;DR: The ratio of halogenated products and formate formed is indicative of the relative importance of initial one- or two-electron-transfer processes, respectively, and was found to depend on the type of iron oxide mineral also.

Uranium solution-mineral equilibria at low temperatures with applications to sedimentary ore deposits

TL;DR: The Gibbs free energies, enthalpies and entropies of 42 dissolved uranium species and 30 uranium-bearing solid phases have been critically evaluated from the literature and estimated when necessary for 25°C.
