Extending the diffuse layer model of surface acidity behavior: B. Model development

摘要

Considerable disenchantment exists within the environmental research community concerning our current ability to accurately model surface-complexation-mediated low-porewater-concentration ionic contaminant partitioning with natural surfaces. Several authors attribute this unacceptable variation to uncertainties in our understanding of surface acidity behavior. In support of this contention, many authors are not satisfied with our ability to model surface acidity behavior in controlled, pure phase laboratory systems.
