Antimony sorption to schwertmannite in acid sulfate environments

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: . Sorption of Sb(V) also conferred increased stability to schwertmannite, based on changes in the schwertmannite dissolution rate during extraction with an acidic ammonium oxalate solution. This study provides new insights into Sb(V) sorption to schwertmannite in acid sulfate environments, and highlights the role that schwertmannite can play in immobilizing Sb(V) within its crystal structure.
