Partition of copper between dissolved and particulate phases using aluminum oxide as an aquatic model phase: effects of pH, solids and organic matter

The sorption of copper ions from aqueous solutions onto modified aluminum oxide was investigated as a function of pH, solids concentration and both particulate and dissolved organic matter. The aluminum oxide studied was modified by adsorption of humic acid. The pH value, organic matter content, and...
