Iron (Fe) is the fourth most abundant element in the earth's crust and plays important roles in
both biological and chemical processes. The redox reactivity of various Fe (II) forms has …

The technology of integrating nanoscale zero-valent iron (nZVI) and functional anaerobic
bacteria has broad prospects for groundwater remediation. This review focuses on the …

Organic matter (OM) is present in most terrestrial environments and is often found
coprecipitated with ferrihydrite (Fh). Sorption or coprecipitation of OM with Fe oxides has …

Ferrihydrite is a nanocrystalline Fe (hydr) oxide and important sink for environmental
contaminants. Although Fe (hydr) oxides are rarely pure in natural systems, little is known …

Microbial reduction of Fe (III) minerals at neutral pH is faced by the problem of electron
transfer from the cells to the solid-phase electron acceptor and is thought to require either …

Despite mounting evidence for biogeochemical interactions between iron and nitrogen, our
understanding of their environmental importance remains limited. Here we present an …

Vivianite, a ferrous phosphate mineral, can be an important phosphorus (P) sink in non-
sulfidic, reducing coastal sediments. The Fe in the crystal structure of vivianite can be …

Electron transfer to ferric iron in (oxyhydr-) oxides (hereafter iron oxides) is a critical step in
many processes that are central to the biogeochemical cycling of elements and to pollutant …

An original rationale is proposed to explain the controversial role of aluminum, a common
substitutive element in ferrihydrite (Fh), on arsenic adsorption. The adsorption of arsenic on …

Chromium (Cr) leached from iron (Fe)(oxyhydr) oxide-rich tropical laterites can substantially
impact downstream groundwater, ecosystems, and human health. However, its partitioning …
