Effect of redox zonation on the reductive transformation of p-cyanonitrobenzene in a laboratory sediment column

Article Abstract:

Researchers from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency conducted column experiments to investigate the reductive transformation of p-cyanonitrobenzene with respect to redox zonation.

Sediment-associated reactions of aromatic amines. 1. elucidation of sorption mechanisms

Article Abstract:

The sorption pathways of pyridine and aniline are studied in resaturated pond sediment to determine the difference between irreversible and reversible sorption of aromatic amines. Pyridine is described as having a reversible cation-exchange sorption process, while aniline is described as having both a cation-exchange and covalent sorption process.

Sediment-mediated reduction of 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene and fate of the resulting aromatic (poly)amines

Article Abstract:

Researchers from the United States Environmental Protection Agency studied the reduction of trinitrotoluene (TNT) to anaerobic and aerobic sediments and found that its reduction is dependent on oxidation-reduction reaction (redox) conditions.
