Abstract:While the reaction mechanisms Fe(II) abiotic oxidation produce ·OH by CaCO3-induced in AMD are well-documented, little is known about the influence of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) secreted by microorganisms on Fe(II) oxidation in AMD. Given the recent finding, this study experimently measured the cumulative concentrations of ·OH produced from oxygenation of simulated AMD in the presence of EPS. Results of this study show that the cumulative ·OH increased from 56.75 to 158.70 μM within 24 h at pH 3 … Show more
