The acid-base properties of the glauconite surface has been studied by potentiometric titration. Using a surface complexation model with a constant exchange capacity, it was shown that positively charged surface centers and exchange centers dominate in the acidic pH region, and negatively charged centers dominate in the neutral and alkaline regions. The corresponding constants of acid-base equilibrium have been calculated. The data obtained were used to study the sorption of cadmium and lead on glauconite.

AbstractIn performance assessments, sorption of radionuclides dissolved in groundwater is mostly handled by the use of fixed Kd values. It has been well known that this approach is unsatisfying. Only during the last few years, however, tools have become available that make it possible to predict the actual Kd value in an aqueous solution that differs from the one in which the sorption properties were measured.One such approach is surface complexation (SC) that gives a detailed knowledge of the sorption properties. In SC, one tries to find what kinds of sorbed species are available on the surface and the thermodynamics for their formation from species in the bulk aqueous solution. Recently, a different approach, surface phase method (SP), has been developed. In SP, a thin layer including the surface is treated as a separate phase. In the bulk aqueous solution, the surface phase is treated as a virtual component, and from the chemical potential of this component, the sorption properties can be found.In the paper, we compare advantages and disadvantages of the two kinds of models. We also investigate the differences in predicted sorption properties of a number of radionuclides (Co, Np, Th and U). Furthermore, we discuss under which circumstances, one approach or the other is preferable.

ABSTRACTAn important question concerning the transport of radionuclides from nuclear waste repositories is whether the adsorption of metals by rocks and soils can be predicted from the properties of the constituent minerals. Attempts by previous researchers to use sorption models based on linear adsorption or weighted "sorptive additivity" have met with limited success. In this study, a “competitive-additivity” model based on surface complexation theory was used to model the pH-dependent adsorption of lead by goethite/Ca-montmorillonite mixtures using complexation constants obtained from single sorbent systems. Measurements of lead adsorption by goethite, Ca-montmorillonite, and goethite-Ca-montmorillonite mixtures (and similar studies of copper and zinc adsorption) demonstrate that the two adsorbents compete for adsorption of metals over wide ranges of pH and concentrations of adsorbents and metals. The adsorption behaviors of the mixtures are determined by the relative concentrations of the adsorbents and their respective affinities for the adsorbate metal. Particle-particle interactions such as heterocoagulation of the oxide and clay do not appear to be significant for the majority of the adsorption sites in this system.

Understanding the effect of injection water chemistry is becoming crucial, as it has been recently shown to have a major impact on oil recovery processes in carbonate formations. Various studies have concluded that surface charge alteration is the primary mechanism behind the observed change of wettability towards water-wet due to SmartWater injection in carbonates. Therefore, understanding the surface charges at brine/calcite and brine/crude oil interfaces becomes essential to optimize the injection water compositions for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) in carbonate formations. In this work, the physicochemical interactions of different brine recipes with and without alkali in carbonates are evaluated using Surface Complexation Model (SCM). First, the zeta-potential of brine/calcite and brine/crude oil interfaces are determined for Smart Water, NaCl, and Na2SO4 brines at fixed salinity. The high salinity seawater is also included to provide the baseline for comparison. Then, two types of Alkali (NaOH and Na2CO3) are added at 0.1 wt% concentration to the different brine recipes to verify their effects on the computed zeta-potential values in the SCM framework. The SCM results are compared with experimental data of zeta-potentials obtained with calcite in brine and crude oil in brine suspensions using the same brines and the two alkali concentrations. The SCM results follow the same trends observed in experimental data to reasonably match the zeta-potential values at the calcite/brine interface. Generally, the addition of alkaline drives the zeta-potentials towards more negative values. This trend towards negative zeta-potential is confirmed for the Smart Water recipe with the impact being more pronounced for Na2CO3 due to the presence of divalent anion carbonate (CO3)-2. Some discrepancy in the zeta-potential magnitude between the SCM results and experiments is observed at the brine/crude oil interface with the addition of alkali. This discrepancy can be attributed to neglecting the reaction of carboxylic acid groups in the crude oil with strong alkali as NaOH and Na2CO3. The novelty of this work is that it clearly validates the SCM results with experimental zeta-potential data to determine the physicochemical interaction of alkaline chemicals with SmartWater in carbonates. These modeling results provide new insights on defining optimal SmartWater compositions to synergize with alkaline chemicals to further improve oil recovery in carbonate reservoirs.
