Electron transfer mediated by iron minerals is considered as a critical redox step for the dynamics of pollutants in soil. Herein, we explored reduction process Cr(VI) with different crystalline ferric oxyhydroxides presence pyrogenic carbon (biochar). Both low- and high-crystallinity induced immobilization mainly via sorption process, limited process. However, was inspired copresence biochar. Low-crystallinity oxyhydroxide had an intense chemical combination biochar strong inner-sphere complexation, leading to indirect electron route reduction, that is, first transferred from mineral through C–O–Fe binding then Fe(III)/Fe(II) transformation on oxyhydroxides. With increasing crystallinity oxyhydroxides, direct between became main avenue reduction. The suppressed due less Cr(VI), biochar, higher stability. This study demonstrates mechanisms involving change crystallization which would affect geochemical contaminants carbon.

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) are a large family of thousands chemicals, many which have been identified using nontargeted time-of-flight Orbitrap mass spectrometry methods. Comprehensive characterization complex PFAS mixtures is critical to assess their environmental transport, transformation, exposure, uptake. Because 21 tesla (T) Fourier-transform ion cyclotron resonance (FT-ICR MS) offers the highest available resolving power sub-ppm errors across wide molecular weight range, we developed T FT-ICR MS method screen for PFASs in an aqueous film-forming foam (AFFF) suspect screening, targeted formula database (C, H, Cl, F, N, O, P, S; ≤865 Da), isotopologues, Kendrick-analogous difference networks (KAMDNs). False-positive identifications natural organic matter (NOM) sample, served as negative control, suggested that minimum length 3 should be imposed when annotating CF2-homologous series with positive defects. We putatively 163 known during well 134 novel including suspected polyethoxylated perfluoroalkane sulfonamide series.

Journal of the American Society for Mass Spectrometry, Год журнала: 2021, Номер 33(1), С. 198 - 202

Опубликована: Дек. 7, 2021

Ultrahigh resolution mass spectrometry (UHR-MS) is commonly used to characterize natural organic matter (NOM). The complexity of both NOM and the data set produced make visualization challenging. Van Krevelen diagrams─plots component hydrogen/carbon (H/C) against oxygen/carbon (O/C) elemental ratios─have become a popular way visualize chemical formulas identified by UHR-MS. Different regions on van diagram have been attributed different classes; however, classifications vary between studies lack standard definitions. Here, were obtained from public databases create H/C O/C ranges for amino sugar, carbohydrate, lignin, lipid, peptide, tannin classes diagrams. recommended are presented in table can be adapted any analysis software programs. here agreed reasonably well with previous literature peptide regions. However, region appears at lower ratio values wider range compared studies. herein strongly use as consistent reference points future characterization aid discussion readily compare

Wildfires in forested watersheds dramatically alter stored and labile soil organic matter (SOM) pools the export of dissolved (DOM). Ecosystem recovery after wildfires depends on microbial communities revegetation therefore is limited by availability nutrients, such as nitrogen-containing labile, water-soluble compounds. However, SOM byproducts produced at different wildfire intensities are poorly understood, leading to difficulties assessing severity predicting ecosystem recovery. In this work, water-extractable (WEOM) from laboratory microcosms burned discrete temperatures was characterized ultrahigh-resolution Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry study impacts fire temperature DOM composition. The molecular composition derived burn indicated that were enriched with heating composed a wide range aromatic features oxidation states. Mass difference-based analysis also suggested products formed during could be modeled using transformations along Maillard reaction pathway. enrichment N-containing burning has important implications for downstream water quality.
