The geochemical partitioning and bioavailability of trace metals in marine sediments

Creator:: Oakley, Stewart M.
Abstract:: Trace metals in the aquatic environment are generally concentrated on the surface of solid geochemical phases which eventually become incorporated into estuarine and marine sediments. The mechanism of trace metal concentration is believed to be adsorption with various geochemical phases such as hydrous metal oxides, clays, and organic matter. Metals...

Estuarine sediment controls on trace metal distributions

Creator:: Davies-Colley, Robert J.
Abstract:: Sediments are the major compartment in aquatic environments for many materials of toxic or nutrient concern. The lack of knowledge of the phase associations of toxic metals in sediments is the largest deficiency in our understanding of the environmental hazard posed by metal contamination. This study examined the sedimentary partitioning...

Preparation and laboratory evaluation of stationary-phase iron-oxide-based adsorbents for removal of metals from waste waters

Creator:: May, Michael Lee
Abstract:: Several potential sorbent materials containing iron oxides were prepared and evaluated for potential to remove divalent metals from waste waters. These included a ferrihydrite-coated sand, maghemite incorporated in Dowex[Trademark] ion exchange resin, gothite and two thermally activated ferrihydrites. Attempts to prepare sorbents from steel shot by coating with ferrihydrite or...

Multi-metal equilibrium sorption and transport modeling for copper, chromium, and arsenic in an iron oxide-coated sand, synthetic groundwater system

Creator:: Osathaphan, Khemarath
Abstract:: The mixed metal compound, Chromated Copper Arsenate, or CCA, has been widely used as a wood preservative. The metal ions in CCA, CrO²⁻₄, Cu²⁺, and AsO³⁻₄, have been found in contaminated surface and subsurface soils and groundwater nearby some wood preservative facilities and nearby wood structures. Iron oxides are a...

Chromium (VI) sorption in soils : chemical behavior and solute transport modeling

Creator:: Schroth, Martin Herbert
Abstract:: Chromium spills on soils are causing severe groundwater contamination problems. To increase the performance of cleanup methods, the chemical behavior of chromium in soils and its transport through soils have to be understood. The objectives of this research were to investigate the sorption characteristics of chromium(VI) in soil and to...

Oregon coastal lake study : phosphorus loading and water quality implications

Creator:: Blair, Michael Stuart
Abstract:: A study of phosphorus loading and water quality implications was conducted for the Oregon coastal lakes. The study was based on existing data for lake total phosphorus concentrations and for watershed land uses. A phosphorus mass-balance model was developed to predict lake total phosphorus concentrations from estimated phosphorus loading from...

Adsorption of hexavalent and trivalent chromium to a clayey silt soil : batch kinetic and equilibrium studies

Creator:: Bean, Gregory R.
Abstract:: Chromium, an element of widespread use, is toxic in some forms. Improper disposal of waste chromium products has resulted in contamination of many sites throughout the United States, including the United Chrome Products Superfund site in Corvallis, Oregon. A better understanding of chromium chemistry is needed to facilitate the remediation...

Soil column desorption studies on a chromium contaminated soil

Creator:: Ball, Bruce L.
Abstract:: Soil column studies were performed on a chromium contaminated soil from the United Chrome Products Superfund Site currently undergoing a pump-and-treat cleanup process. The goal of the research was to provide insight into the feasibility of chemically changing the injection fluid of the pump-and-treat system to enhance hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI))...
