Humification and Humic Acid Composition of Suspended Soil in Oligotrophous Environments in South Vietnam

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Soil Science, 2018
Humification is considered to be a global process that is implemented in soils and organic sediments and also in natural water and air. The term “suspended soils” has become increasingly common in recent years.

Long-Term Effect of Soil Use and Management on Organic Carbon and Aggregate Stability

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Ciência do Solo, 2018
: The conversion of native grassland into farmland causes changes in the soil. Tillage has profound effects on soil organic matter. The intensification of soil tillage decreases soil quality by reducing aggregate stability.

Quantification of refractory organic substances in freshwaters: further insight into the response of the voltammetric method [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
A recently published method for quantifying refractory organic matter (often referred to as humic substances) in freshwaters was applied to a wide range of International Humic Substance Society (IHSS) humic compounds in order to (i) gain a better ...

Evaluating the Impact of Cellulose Nanocrystals on the Performance of Polycarbonate Thin‐Film Nanocomposite Membranes for Treating Oily Wastewater

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A new type of thin‐film nanocomposite (TFN) membrane was synthesized by incorporating cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) into a polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) top layer on a polycarbonate (PC) substrate via dip‐coating. The synthesized TFC and TFN membranes (PC/PVA TFC and PC/PVA‐CNC TFN membranes) were evaluated using contact angle measurement, field ...

Sustainable Graphene Oxide–Intercalated Bentonite Composite for the Effective Removal of Imidacloprid From Water: Adsorption Performance, Isotherm, and Kinetics

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Water is a fundamental necessity for our existence, but its rapid contamination is causing devastating effects on the environment and health of living species worldwide. Adsorptive removal of pollutants is one of the popular water treatment techniques because of its simplicity, affordability, and the broad range of available adsorbents.

Performance of Polysulfone/PANI Membrane for Humic Acid Separation

open access: yesChemical Engineering Transactions, 2017
The effect of polymer mixed matrix membrane was investigated by mixing Polyaniline (PANI) in Polysulfone (PSf) membrane for humic acid separation. The purpose addition of PANI in PSf was to improve the membrane hydrophilicity and increase membrane ...

Quantifying measures to limit wind driven resuspension of sediments for improvement of the ecological quality in some shallow Dutch lakes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Although phosphorus loadings are considered the main pressure for most shallow lakes, wind-driven resuspension can cause additional problems for these aquatic ecosystems. We quantified the potential effectiveness of measures to reduce the contribution of

Insights Into the Effect of Humic Acids Extraction From Coal on Hard Carbon Microstructure and Sodium Storage Properties

open access: yesCarbon Energy, EarlyView.
This study employs a simple solid‐phase alkali‐oxygen oxidation (SAO) method to extract inherent components (humic acids) from coal. We successfully extracted yellow, brown, and black humic acids by adjusting the amount of alkali. Among them, brown humic acid extraction created abundant ultra‐micropores and closed pores, greatly enhancing sodium ...
