Langue : Anglais

Coordonnateurs : Brantley Susan, Kubicki James, White Art

Couverture de l’ouvrage Kinetics of Water-Rock Interaction

Geochemical kinetics as a topic is now of importance to a wide range of geochemists in academia, industry, and government, and all geochemists need a rudimentary knowledge of the field. This book summarizes the fundamentals of geochemical kinetics with examples drawn especially from mineral dissolution and precipitation. It also encompasses discussion of high temperature processes and global geochemical cycle modeling. Analysis of textures of rocks, sediments, and mineral surfaces are incorporated throughout and provide a sub-theme of the book.

Analysis of Rates of Geochemical Reactions.- Transition State Theory and Molecular Orbital Calculations Applied to Rates and Reaction Mechanisms in Geochemical Kinetics.- The Mineral-Water Interface.- Kinetics of Sorption—Desorption.- Kinetics of Mineral Dissolution.- Data Fitting Techniques with Applications to Mineral Dissolution Kinetics.- Nucleation, Growth, and Aggregation of Mineral Phases: Mechanisms and Kinetic Controls.- Microbiological Controls on Geochemical Kinetics 1: Fundamentals and Case Study on Microbial Fe(III) Oxide Reduction.- Microbiological Controls on Geochemical Kinetics 2: Case Study on Microbial Oxidation of Metal Sulfide Minerals and Future Prospects.- Quantitative Approaches to Characterizing Natural Chemical Weathering Rates.- Geochemical Kinetics and Transport.- Isotope Geochemistry as a Tool for Deciphering Kinetics of Water-Rock Interaction.- Kinetics of Global Geochemical Cycles.

All practitioners of geochemistry today need a thorough understanding of kinetics, including those in academia, government, and industry

Will have textbook potential among upper division undergraduate and graduate students. The book will also be useful as a reference tool for practicing geochemists

focussed on water-rock interaction, which has wide applications for hyrogeochemists, soil scientists, petrologists, economic geologists, and environment geologists in academia, industry, and applied laboratories
