| Abstract | The abiotic reduction of X-ferrihydrite (X-FH, where X = 0, As, Mo, or Ni at various Fe/X molar ratios) was investigated by reacting Fe(II)(aq) at solution concentrations of 0.5 mM or 10 mM and at target pH values of 8 or 10 (using lime water as a base) for 7 days. Under all reaction conditions tested, the measured pH was always lower than the target; this difference was greatest for As-FH (at up to 5 pH units). The control FH sample behaved as expected and transformed to lepidocrocite (LP) and goethite (GT) phases. For As-FH, the sample containing less As (Fe/As = 32.9) transformed to LP–GT phases but phase transformation in the sample with more As (Fe/As = 4.47) was inhibited. Solution concentrations of As were below the detection limit for the Fe/As 32.9 sample but As release was evident for the Fe/As 4.47 sample. For Mo-FH, phase transformation to LP–GT phases was observed at lower target pH (8) conditions under both reacting Fe(II)(aq) concentrations. At the higher target pH (10) and using 0.5 mM Fe(II)(aq), phase transformation inhibition was observed for Mo-FH varieties that contained both high (Fe/Mo 12.5) and low (Fe/Mo 31.5) concentrations of Mo. This is the first time an element forming an outer-sphere complex on FH (e.g., Mo) has been shown to retard phase transformation; such phenomena are usually observed for metalloids that form inner-sphere complexes with FH (e.g., As). Under all conditions, Mo was released into solution (up to 340 ppm) and under some conditions was then readsorbed by the solid phase. Finally, all Ni-FH samples exhibited phase transformation under the reaction conditions tested; however, magnetite (MG) and a green rust-like phase were observed in addition to the LP–GT phases. Under all reaction conditions, the largest amount of Ni was released into solution on the first day of reaction, after which the amount in solution decreased with time due to its readsorption into the solid phase. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
