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.

Remobilization of authigenic uranium in marine sediments by bioturbation

TL;DR: In this article, sites characterized by a range of bottom-water oxygen (BWO) and organic carbon flux (OCF) were studied to understand the conditions that determine formation and preservation of authigenic U in marine sediments.

Reduction of TcO4- by sediment-associated biogenic Fe(II)

TL;DR: In this paper, the potential for reduction of 99TcO4−(aq) to poorly soluble TcO2 · nH2O(s) by biogenic sediment-associated Fe(II) was investigated with three Fe(III)-oxide containing subsurface materials and the dissimilatory metal-reducing subsural bacterium Shewanella putrefaciens CN32.

Electron transfer at the mineral/water interface: Selenium reduction by ferrous iron sorbed on clay

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the long-term kinetics of selenite ( Se(IV)O 3 - ) sorption to montmorillonite in the presence of Fe2+ under anoxic conditions.

The significance of surface complexation reactions in hydrologic systems: a geochemist's perspective

TL;DR: In this paper, the application of thermodynamic principles to quantify aqueous complexation reactions is described and a brief overview of a few of the methods that have been used to characterize reactive sites on mineral surfaces.

Fe(II) sorption on hematite: new insights based on spectroscopic measurements.

TL;DR: The spectroscopic demonstration of two distinctly different sorption endpoints, that is an Fe(III) coating formed from electron transfer or a stable, sorbed Fe(II) phase, challenges us to reconsider the authors' traditional interpretations and modeling of Fe( II) sorption behavior.
