Note on Colloidal Ferric Hydroxide in Sea Water

If a sol of colloidal ferric hydroxide is added to sea water, or if the hydroxide is formed in sea water by adding a solution of an iron salt, the aggregated molecules of hydroxide coalesce to form flocs which fall rather rapidly as a precipitate. When several thousand mg. of iron are added per cubic metre of sea water, flocculation is immediate; on adding 300-500 mg. Fe per m.3 in sufficiently...

Granular Ferric Hydroxide for Elimination of Arsenic from Drinking Water

90Y ferric hydroxide colloid.

At the Radiochemical Centre we have recently developed a new 90Y colloid which has greater stability than the currently available 90Y silicate colloid and appears from the results of animal tests to be suitable for the treatment of rheumatoid knee joint effusions. In this report the need for a new 90Y colloid is assessed and the preparation and properties of the new colloid are described. Curre...

nitrate removal from water using granules ferric hydroxide absorbent

background: one of the major sources of drinking water contamination is nitrate. nitrate concentrations of more than the standard levels (45mgl -1 based on nitrate) could cause methemoglobinemia in children. the aim of this study is to investigate the nitrate adsorption on granular ferric hydroxide (gfh). also in this study, the effect of factors such as initial concentration of nitrate, contac...

Corrosion of Concrete in Sea Water (RESEARCH NOTE)

Attack and disintegration of concrete structures under the influence of aggressive fluids, wet gases, etc. are understood as corrosion of concrete. The corrosion of concrete is a chemical, colloidchemical process, yet often a physico-chemical one, while that of reinforced concrete supported oil platforms are subjected to marine environment in the Persian Gulf and therefore corroded. In the pres...
