Abiotic Fe(II) oxidation by O commonly occurs in the presence of mineral sorbents and organic matter (OM) in soils and sediments; however, this tertiary system has rarely been studied. Therefore, we examined the impacts of mineral surfaces (goethite and γ-AlO) and organic matter [Suwannee River fulvic acid (SRFA)] on Fe(II) oxidation rates and the resulting Fe(III) (oxyhydr)oxides under 21 and 1% pO at pH 6. We tracked Fe dynamics by adding Fe(II) to Fe-labeled goethite and γ-AlO and characterized the resulting solids using Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy. We found Fe(II) oxidation was slower at low pO and resulted in higher-crystallinity Fe(III) phases. Relative to oxidation of Fe(II) alone, both goethite and γ-AlO surfaces increased Fe(II) oxidation rates regardless of pO levels, with goethite being the stronger catalyst. Goethite surfaces promoted the formation of crystalline goethite, while γ-AlO favored nano/small particle or disordered goethite and some lepidocrocite; oxidation of Fe(II) alone favored lepidocrocite. SRFA reduced oxidation rates in all treatments except the mineral-free systems at 21% pO, and SRFA decreased Fe(III) phase crystallinity, facilitating low-crystalline ferrihydrite in the absence of mineral sorbents, low-crystalline lepidocrocite in the presence of γ-AlO, but either crystalline goethite or ferrihydrite when goethite was present. This work highlights that the oxidation rate, the types of mineral surfaces, and OM control Fe(III) precipitate composition.
在土壤和沉积物中,O 通常会在矿物吸附剂和有机物 (OM) 的存在下促进非生物 Fe(II) 氧化;然而,这个三元系统很少被研究过。因此,我们研究了矿物表面(针铁矿和γ-AlO)和有机物[苏万尼河富里酸 (SRFA)]对 Fe(II) 氧化速率的影响,以及在 pH 值为 6 时 21%和 1% pO 下形成的 Fe(III)(氧氢)氧化物。我们通过向 Fe 标记的针铁矿和γ-AlO 中添加 Fe(II) 来跟踪 Fe 动力学,并使用 Fe Mössbauer 光谱法对生成的固体进行了表征。我们发现,在低 pO 下,Fe(II) 的氧化速度较慢,生成的 Fe(III) 相结晶度较高。与单独氧化 Fe(II)相比,无论 pO 水平如何,针铁矿和γ-AlO 表面都能提高 Fe(II)的氧化速率,其中针铁矿是更强的催化剂。针铁矿表面促进了结晶针铁矿的形成,而γ-AlO 则有利于纳米/小颗粒或无序针铁矿和一些纤铁矿的形成;单独氧化 Fe(II)有利于纤铁矿的形成。除了在 21% pO 下的无矿物体系外,SRFA 降低了所有处理中的氧化速率,并且 SRFA 降低了 Fe(III) 相结晶度,在没有矿物吸附剂的情况下有利于低结晶水铁矿的形成,在存在γ-AlO 的情况下有利于低结晶纤铁矿的形成,但当存在针铁矿时,有利于结晶针铁矿或水铁矿的形成。这项工作强调了氧化速率、矿物表面类型和 OM 控制 Fe(III)沉淀组成。
