Description
Summary:Temperature-dependent kinetic studies of the adsorption of critical pollutants onto reactive components in soils and removal technologies provide invaluable rate information and mechanistic insight. Using attenuated total internal reflection Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, we collected in situ spectra as a function of time, concentration, and temperature in the range of 5–50 °C (278–323 K) for the adsorption of arsenate (iAs) and dimethylarsinate (DMA) on hematite nanoparticles at pH 7. These experimental data were modeled with density functional theory (DFT) calculations on the energy barriers between surface complexes. The Langmuir adsorption kinetic model was used to extract values of the fast (
