Abstract in another language
Effect of dissolved ferrous iron [Fe(II)aq = 0–1.0 mM] on stability of schwertmannite containing ≈40 wt% Fe(III) and 15 wt% SO4 2− [with and without 0.92 wt% sorbed As(III)] was investigated in anoxic alkaline conditions at pH 8 for 154 h. New product formation, sulfate, iron, and arsenic release kinetics were examined using diffractogram, microscopic, spectroscopic and geochemical techniques. Both schwertmannite types were incompletely transformed to lepidocrocite with a platy tabular morphometry. Product formation was accelerated with increased Fe(II)aq, while sorbed As(III) markedly hindered lepidocrocite formation. Almost 50–57 % of the SO4 2− was released from schwertmannite within 154 h in the absence of Fe(II)aq, while its presence inhibited its release. Some of the sorbed As(III) was released during lepidocrocite formation with a maximum in the presence of 1.0 mM Fe(II)aq (0.02 %, 21 µg L−1), presumably due to catalytic action of Fe(II)aq on schwertmannite dissolution, which likely re-precipitated as lepidocrocite with considerable surface-adsorbed SO4 2−.
