چکیده

This study investigated the effect of reaction time (minutes to months) on the surface coordination environment of Ni sorbed onto pyrophyllite using XAFS. The data suggest the appearance of multinuclear Ni complexes after a reaction time of minutes. As reaction time !>rogresses, these multinuclear Ni complexes increased in size «NNi-Ni 1.4-4.5). Ni-Ni bond distances (2.99-3.03 A) were similar to those for mixed Ni-AI hydroxides (3.03 A), but distinctively sboner than those for Ni(OHh(s) (3.09 A). We propose that the formation of mixed Ni-Al hydroxides may explain the observed bond distances and coordination nnmbers.

Mechanisms of Nickel Sorption on Pyrophyllite: Macroscopic and Microscopic Approaches

Retention of heavy metal ions on soil mineral surfaces is a crucial process for maintaining environmental quality. A thorough understanding of the sorption mechanisms of heavy metals on soil mineral surfaces is therefore of fundamental importance. This study examined Ni(Il) sorption mechanisms on pyrophyllite. The removal of Ni from solution was studied as a function of pH (pH = 5-8.5), initial...

Kinetics of Mixed Ni-Al Precipitate Formation on a Soil Clay Fraction

The kinetics of mixed Ni-Al layered double hydroxide (LDH) precipitate formation on a soil clay fraction was monitored using X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) spectroscopy. The kinetic behavior was monitored at pH 6.0, 6.8, and 7.5 in order to determine the effect of reaction pH on precipitate formation. XAFS analyses were performed on a Ni-reacted whole soil at pH 7.5 to determine the eff...

The kinetics of mixed Ni-Al hydroxide formation on clay and aluminum oxide minerals: A time-resolved XAFS study

In this study kinetic investigations were combined with X-ray Absorption Fine Structure (XAFS) measurements to determine Ni sorption processes on pyrophyllite, gibbsite, and montmorillonite over extended time periods (min-months). The kinetic investigations revealed that Ni sorption reactions (pH 5 7.5, [Ni]initial 5 3 mM, I 5 0.1 M (NaNO3)) were initially fast (8–35% of the initial Ni was remo...

Kinetics and Mechanisms of Pb(II) Sorption and Desorption at the Aluminum Oxide-Water Interface

The fate of Pb in the environment is highly dependent on sorption and desorption reactions on solid surfaces. In this study Pb sorption and desorption kinetics on γ-Al2O3 at pH 6.50, I ) 0.1 M, and [Pb]initial ) 2 mM were investigated using both macroscopic and spectroscopic measurements. X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) spectroscopy revealed a Pb-Al bond distance of 3.40 Å, consistent wi...

Stability of layered Ni hydroxide surface precipitates—A dissolution kinetics study

In recent years, studies have shown that sorption of metals onto natural materials results in the formation of new mineral-like precipitate phases. However, the stability of the precipitates and the potential long-term release of the metal back into the soil solution are poorly understood. Therefore, we investigated the influence of residence time and dissolution agent on the release of nickel ...
