Knowledge of the basic interactions that take place between
geological materials and different substances is the first step in
understanding the effects of adsorption and other interfacial
processes on the quality of rocks and soils, and on driving these
processes towards a beneficial or neutral result. Interfacial
Chemistry of Rocks and Soils examines the different processes at
solid and liquid interfaces of soil and rock, presenting a complete
analysis that emphasizes the importance of chemical species on
these interactions. This Second Edition features novel results in
the field and expanded coverage of the kinetics of interfacial
processes. New content includes models of heterogeneous isotope
exchange, sorption isotherms for heterovalent cation exchange, as
well as sorption of anions by chemically modified clays.
Summarizing the results and knowledge of the authors' research in
this field over several decades, this volume: Explores the
individual components of the studied systems: the solid, the
solution, and the interface Discusses the characteristics and
thermodynamics of the interface Profiles the most important
analytical methods in the study of interfacial processes
Demonstrates transformations initiated by interfacial processes
Outlines avenues of treatment that may solve geological, soil
science, and environmental problems Drawn chiefly from the authors'
years of research at the Imre Lajos Isotope Laboratory in the
Department of Physical Chemistry at the University of Debrecen in
Hungary, this book discusses chemical reactions on the
surfaces/interfaces of soils and rocks; examines the role of these
processes in environmental, colloid and geochemistry; and explores
the effects on agricultural, environmental and industrial
applications.
