Abstract

Because of its toxicity, arsenic is of considerable environmental concern. Its solubility in natural systems is strongly influenced by adsorption at iron oxide surfaces. The objective of this study was to compare the adsorption behavior of arsenite and arsenate on ferrihydrite, under carefully controlled conditions, with regard to adsorption kinetics, adsorption isotherms, and the influence of pH on adsorption. The adsorption reactions were relatively fast, with the reactions almost completed within the first few hours. At relatively high As concentrations, arsenite reacted faster than arsenate with the ferrihydrite, i.e., equilibrium was achieved sooner, but arsenate adsorption was faster at low As concentrations and low pH. Adsorp tion maxima of approximately 0.60 (0.58) and 0.25 (0.16) mol As mol Fe -1 were achieved for arsenite and arsenate, respectively, at pH 4.6 (pH 9.2 in parentheses). The high arsenite retention, which precludes its retention entirely as surface adsorbed species, indicates the likelihood that ferrihydrite was transformed to a ferric arsenite phase, although this possibility has yet to be confirmed by spectroscopic studies. The general trend at initial arsenic concentrations ≥0.27 mol As kg -1 ferrihydrite within the pH range of 4−9 was increasing arsenite adsorption and decreasing arsenate adsorption with increasing pH. At initial As concentrations of 0.27−0.80 mol As kg -1 ferrihydrite, the adsorption envelopes crossed at approximately pH 6−7.5, i.e., adsorbed arsenate concentrations were relatively greater than adsorbed arsenite concentrations at lower pH values whereas adsorbed arsenite was greater at higher pH. At the highest initial arsenic concentration of 13.3 mol As kg -1 ferrihydrite, a distinct adsorption maximum was observed for arsenite adsorption at approximately pH 9.0, which corresponds closely to the first p K a (9.2) of H 3 AsO 3 0, whereas there was a continuous drop in arsenate adsorption with increasing pH from 3 to 11.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
