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.

Influence of Uranyl Speciation and Iron Oxides on Uranium Biogeochemical Redox Reactions

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the impact of speciation changes induced by dissolved Ca on the extent and rate of reduction of U(VI) in anaerobic environments, and examined the effect of Fe(III) (hydr)oxides (ferrihydrite, goethite and hematite) varying in free energies of formation on U reduction.

Effect of solubility on the determination of the protonable surface site density of oxyhydroxides.

TL;DR: The impact of the dissolved quantity of aluminum on the calculation of surface charge from titration experiments of hydrated gamma-alumina was investigated and two methods were developed to correct this effect: direct determination of aluminum in solution in batch Titration experiments and application of a dissolution rate model in continuous titration experiment.

Identification of Fluoride and Phosphate Binding Sites at FeOOH Surfaces

TL;DR: In this paper, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy was used to examine adsorption products formed on iron oxyhydroxide surfaces in aqueous solutions of sodium fluoride and monosodium phosphate.

Metallic iron for water treatment: leaving the valley of confusion

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors re-establishes the complex nature of the Fe0/H2O system while recalling that proper system analysis and chemical thermodynamics are the most confident ways to solve any conflicting situation in Fe0 environmental remediation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Influence of Acidic and Alkaline Waste Solution Properties on Uranium Migration in Subsurface Sediments

TL;DR: Results show that acidic or alkaline co-contaminant disposal with uranium can result in complex depth- and time-dependent changes in uranium dissolution/precipitation reactions and uranium sorption, which alter the uranium migration mass, concentration, and velocity.
