To describe the binding of protons and metals to humic substances, the Stockholm Humic
Model (SHM) has been developed. The model employs a discrete-site approach similar to …

Dissolved organic matter (DOM) and hardness cations are two common constituents of
natural waters that substantially impact water treatment processes. Anion exchange …

In this study, a system consisting of Pb, Cu and Cd as typical heavy metal pollutants, and
purified Aldrich humic acid as a representative of natural organic materials were selected as …

The inhibition of calcite precipitation by natural organic material (NOM) in solutions seeded
with calcite was investigated using a pH-stat system. Experiments were carried out using …

Natural organic matter (NOM) is capable of interfering with Fe hydrolysis and influencing the
size, morphology, and identity of Fe precipitates. Conversely, Ca2+ raises surface potential …

The interactions of metal cations (Al, Ba, Ca, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mg, Mn, Ni, Pb, Zn) with
solid humic acids (HAs) were investigated in a batch arrangement. The sorption of metals on …

Hardness and DOC removal in a single ion exchange unit operation allows for less
infrastructure, is advantageous for process operation and depending on the water source …

A simple surface complexation model, the double-layer model (DLM), was used to describe
the sorption of Cu (II) on a lignocellulosic substrate extracted from wheat bran. The solid was …

Bone-targeted therapies have been the choice of treatments for cancer metastases in bone
to minimize skeletal morbidity and preserve patients' quality of life. Rhein is of particular …

The sorption of copper ions onto natural bamboo sawdust with cellulose–lignin polymeric
structure strongly depends on pH. The adsorption capacity for copper ions increases as …
