Heavy metal (HM) pollution of soils is a globally important ecological and environmental
problem. Previous studies have focused on i) tracking pollution sources in HM-contaminated …

The mineral-organo composites control the speciation, mobility and bioavailability of heavy
metals in soils and sediments by surface adsorption and precipitation. The dynamic changes …

Adsorption and coprecipitation of organic matter with iron (hydr) oxides can alter iron (hydr)
oxide surface properties and their reactivity towards nutrient elements and heavy metals …

The availability of heavy metals in terrestrial environments is largely controlled by their
interactions with minerals and organic matter, with iron minerals having a particularly strong …

Iron (hydr) oxides and their association with organic matter significantly affect the mobility of
heavy metals in natural soils and sediments. However, the behavior of cadmium (Cd) during …

Heavy metals and humic acid are two important pollutants in surface and waste water
systems. In this study, fly ash, an industrial waste, is used as a low-cost adsorbent for …

Bacterially associated iron (hydr) oxide composites are widespread in natural environments,
and by analogy with isolated iron (hydr) oxides and bacteria, are important scavengers of …

The fate of trace elements in soils, sediments, and surface waters is largely determined by
their binding to reactive components, of which organic matter, metal oxides, and clays are …

In natural environments, the iron oxide transformation is associated with natural organic
matter (NOM) and heavy metals. However, there is still a lack of knowledge on the dynamic …

The interaction between copper ions (Cu2+), Strichen fulvic acid (FA), and goethite has
been studied with batch experiments in the pH range of 3–11. Similar systems with Ca2+ …
