Abstract:
Signs that a water body is becoming acidified are clearer water and declining fish populations. The clearness is primarily due to that the humic substances that normally colour the water, precipitate and settle on the lake floor. The main reason for fish stocks declining, both overall and in number of species, is failure to reproduce in acidic water. Many other biological changes occur, too, when the water becomes acidified.

The second, comprising geothermal vents on the Island of Vulcano, was unusual for natural acidic environments since it was saline. Three vent regions of different temperatures (30°C, 45°C and

Abstract:
The goal of this thesis is to probe the functionality of 2-mercaptobenzimidazole (MBI) as corrosion inhibitor of carbon-steel in both strong and weak aqueous acidic solutions (HCl and H2CO3). To achieve this target electrochemical techniques have been employed, in combination with substrate analysis. Concerning aqueous HCl media, results demonstrate that MBI is an effective corrosion inhibitor, functioning essentially equally well in 1 M, 0.1 M, and 0.01 M HCl concentrations. X-ray photoelectron spectra suggest that MBI is typically bound to the surface in two tautomeric forms (thione and thio

Abstract:
The safe disposal of arsenic-containing waste has been a difficult problem for the mining and metallurgical industry. One of the solutions to the arsenic problem is the precipitation of scorodite, an arsenic-containing mineral. Scorodite is reported to be relatively stable over a wide range of pH, and therefore may be a preferred disposal option. The effect of organic complexing agents on scorodite stability, however, is largely unknown. The present study is a phenomenological investigation into the dissolution kinetics of scorodite in the presence of oxalic acid under varying conditions of pH

Metal and acid containing effluents generated by industry are most commonly treated with lime which neutralizes the acid and precipitates the dissolved metals. The resulting sludge contains gypsum which has a high water content and requires large landfill volumes.

A dense, fast settling sludge would also reduce the cost of the process and the volume to be landfilled. Magnesium hydroxide has been examined in this research as a neutraliz

However, HPC degradation mechanisms in sulfate and acidic environments are not completely understood.
