Assessing the reactive surface area of soils and the association of soil organic carbon with natural oxide nanoparticles using ferrihydrite as proxy
(2020-09-09)
Assessment of the surface reactivity of natural metal-(hydr)oxide nanoparticles is necessary for predicting ion adsorption phenomena in soils using surface complexation modeling. Here, we describe how the equilibrium ...
Anti-platelet activity and chemical characterization by UPLC-DAD-ESI-QTOF-MS of the main polyphenols in extracts from Psidium leaves and fruits
(2021)
In Costa Rica, two species of Psidium fruits, P. guajava and P. friedrichsthalianum, are widely consumed as food and used in folk medicine. Although studies have revealed the health effects of these fruits, there has been ...
Evolution of the reactive surface area of ferrihydrite: time, pH, and temperature dependency of growth by Ostwald ripening
(2019-02)
Surface area is a crucial property of metal oxides for scaling ion adsorption phenomena. For ferrihydrite (Fh), the value is uncertain. Moreover, it rapidly changes with time, pH, and temperature. In this study, the dynamic ...
Microorganismos electroactivos en el agua residual de beneficiado de café (procesos redox de hierro)
Electroactive microorganisms in coffee processing wastewater (iron redox processes).”
(2024)
Introduction: Wastewater is often a good source for electrogenic bacteria, which are essential for Microbial Fuel Cells (MFCs). The electrons they release while metabolizing organic matter is evidence of their electrogenic ...
Estudio sobre cambios fisico-químicos durante la fermentación del pasto elefante en microsilos de laboratorio con tres niveles de melaza
(1981)
Physical and chemical changes during the fermentation of elephant grass with three levels of sugar cane molasses, in laboratory silos. The effect of the adition of sugar cane molasses on the chemical composition and nutritive ...
Boron adsorption to ferrihydrite with implications for surface speciation in soils: Experiments and modeling
(2020-07-29)
The adsorption and desorption of boric acid onto reactive materials such as metal (hydr)oxides and natural organic matter are generally considered to be controlling processes for the leaching and bioavailability of boron ...
Ternary complex formation of phosphate with Ca and Mg ions binding to ferrihydrite: Experiments and mechanisms
(2020-03-25)
Calcium (Ca) and magnesium (Mg) are the most abundant alkaline-earth metal ions in nature, and their interaction with ferrihydrite (Fh) affects the geochemical cycling of relevant ions, including phosphate (PO4). The ...
Surface area of ferrihydrite consistently related to primary surface charge, ion pair formation, and specific ion adsorption
(2020-01-20)
The specific surface area (SSA) of metal oxides is pivotal for scaling of surface phenomena. For ferrihydrite (Fh), the SSA can be assessed by probing the surface with ions that specifically adsorb (e.g. protons or phosphate). ...
High and low affinity sites of ferrihydrite for metal ion adsorption: Data and modeling of the alkaline-earth ions Be, Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba, and Ra
(2020-10-01)
The alkaline-earth metal ion series comprises Be, Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba, and Ra. Calcium (Ca) and magnesium (Mg) are the most abundant alkaline-earth metal ions in nature and their interaction with the mineral surfaces of metal ...
Carbonate adsorption to ferrihydrite: Competitive interaction with phosphate for use in soil systems
(2018-12)
Carbonate (CO3) interacts with Fe-(hydr)oxide nanoparticles, affecting the availability and geochemical cycle of other important oxyanions in nature. Here, we studied the carbonate–phosphate interaction in closed systems ...
