A new regulation has been proposed that would lower the acceptable level of arsenic in drinking water from the current standard of 50 ppb. Therefore, research into effective arsenic removal treatment is important, especially for hard to treat waters with high concentrations of silica. The first phase of research was designed to determine if sand ballasted coagulation is a viable means of removi...

The aim of this study is to determine the adsorption performance of three types of adsorbents for removal of As(V) from water: Bayoxide® E33 (granular iron(III) oxide), Titansorb® (granular titanium oxide) and a suspension of precipitated iron(III) hydroxide. Results of As(V) adsorption stoichiometry of two commercial adsorbents and precipitated iron(III) hydroxide in tap and demineralized wate...

Ferric hydroxide supported Au prepared with co-precipitation without heat treatment could be a very effective catalyst for selective CO oxidation in the presence of H2 at lower temperatures.

The magnetic moment of catalase is 4.6 +/- 0.3, nearly the same as that of ferric hemoglobin hydroxide. If the moment be due to electron spin alone without orbital contribution, 3 free electrons would give rise to 3.9 magnetons.
