Trophic Diversity in Duckweed: Mixotrophy, More Than the Sum of its Extremes
In the context of rising DOC in aquatic environments, mixotrophic duckweed may impact carbon cycling by acting as either a carbon sink, as they absorb CO2 through photosynthesis, or a carbon source, as they release CO2 through respiration of absorbed DOC, which depends on DOC concentration, light availability, temperature, and other environmental ...

Humic acid removal by electrocoagulation: characterization of aluminum species and humic acid
In this study, the different aluminum (Al) species generated during electrocoagulation (EC), the humic acid (HA) removal, and the change in HA characteristics were evaluated. The results show that the distribution of monomeric Al species (Ala), medium polymer Al species (Alb), and colloidal or solid Al species (Alc) was dependent on initial pH and ...

Adsorption of Forever Chemical Pollutants: The Physical Chemistry of PFAS Near Surfaces
Current adsorption‐based remediation techniques for removing per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) from water are limited by knowledge gaps on PFAS behavior near solid surfaces. This review provides a state of the art on theoretical and experimental aspects of PFAS adsorption.

Heavy metal distribution between fractions of humic substances in heavily polluted soils
Soil organic matter is important in controlling heavy metal behaviour in soils. This study aims to determine the distribution of organically bound Cd, Pb, and Zn between humic and fulvic acids in 20 samples of heavily polluted Fluvisols.

Sorption of Neodymium from Nitrate Solutions by Humic Acids-Based Sorbent
This work obtained a sorbent based on humic acids (HA) isolated from oxidized brown coals of the Maikuben deposit. The study of humic acids by IR spectroscopy showed the presence of various functional groups (OH-, COOH-) in the sorbent, which can enter

Chemical and wettability studies on coal, humic acid and cyclized humic acid
Abstract Investigation of properties such as wettability of coal is often complicated by variations in the surface chemistry of coal samples during their preparation, storing and pretreatments. It is the aim of this study to prepare hydrophobic and hydrophilic derivatives of a single parent coal by chemical methods selected for rupturing and closing ...

Soil pH and Solubility of Aluminum, Iron, and Phosphorus in Ultisols: the Roles of Humic Acid [PDF]
Soil reaction (pH), aluminum (Al), iron (Fe) and phosphorus (P) are the soil properties that are related to each other. Their role on the growth and development of plant is very significant.
