Minerals and organic matter (OM) may form intricate associations via myriad interactions. In
soils, the associations of OM with mineral surfaces are mainly investigated because of their …

This contribution critically reviews the state of knowledge on interactions of natural colloids
and engineered nanoparticles with natural dissolved organic materials (DOM). These …

The addition of iron is a convenient way for removing phosphorus from wastewater, but this
is often considered to limit phosphorus recovery. Struvite precipitation is currently used to …

The quality and quantity of natural organic matter (NOM) has been observed to evolve which
poses challenges to water treatment facilities. Even though NOM may not be toxic itself, its …

The increasing application of iron-based nanoparticles (NPs), especially high
concentrations of zero-valent iron nanoparticles (nZVI), has raised concerns regarding their …

The environmental processes of metallic nanoparticles (MNPs) have been widely
investigated in the literature where the importance of natural organic matter (NOM) was often …

Nanoscale zero-valent iron (NZVI) particles, applied for in-situ subsurface remediation, are
inevitable to interact with various microbes in the remediation sites directly or indirectly. This …

Iron is a source of interference in the spectroscopic analysis of dissolved organic matter
(DOM); however, its effects on commonly employed ultraviolet and visible (UV–vis) light …

Goethite, hematite, ferrihydrite, and other iron oxides bind through various sorption reactions
with humic substances (HS) in soils creating nano-, micro-, and macro-aggregates with a …

Oscillating redox conditions are a common feature of humid tropical forest soils, driven by an
ample supply and dynamics of reductants, high moisture, microbial oxygen consumption …
