Formation of iron sulfide at faecal pellets and other microniches within suboxic surface sediment. [PDF]
Faecal pellet deposition and bioturbation may lead to heterogeneously distributed particles of localized highly reactive organic matter (microniches) being present below the oxygen penetration depth.

DFT Study into the Influence of Carbon Material on the Hydrophobicity of a Coal Pyrite Surface
From the macroscopic point of view, the hydrophilicity of symbiotic carbon pyrite is weakened overall compared to that of pure pyrite. It is very important to explain the impact of elemental carbon accreted on a pyrite surface on the surface’s ...

Arsenic-bearing phases in South Andean volcanic ashes: Implications for As mobility in aquatic environments [PDF]
Three samples of volcanic ashes collected after eruptions of the volcanos Hudson in 1991, Chaitén in 2008 and Puyehue in 2011 were analyzed in order to define the solid speciation of arsenic and the dynamics of its release to the aqueous phase.

Desulphurization of coals of different ranks in the presence of slimes by reverse flotation
In this paper, the flotation separation of pyrite from sub-bituminous and meta-bituminous coals in the presence of slimes was investigated. The sub-bituminous coal and the meta-bituminous coal have significant differences in their surface properties ...

Study on Water Wettability Mechanism of Pyrite and Coal Surfaces Based on Density Functional Theory
Flotation is based on the difference of wettability of mineral surfaces. In order to study the water wettability mechanism of pyrite and coal surfaces, pyrite and perfect coal surface models were constructed. The adsorptions of water and oxygen molecules

Atomic Layer Deposition of Highly Conducting NiS2 Thin Films from Elemental Sulfur
A simple new atomic layer deposition (ALD) process yields in‐situ crystalline and electrically conducting nickel disulfide thin films. This deposition process is based on two solid and safe precursors, nickel acetylacetonate and elemental sulfur. ABSTRACT A novel atomic layer deposition (ALD) process for highly conducting nickel disulfide thin films is
