The ecotoxicological effect of dredged sediments was estimated by embryo-larval toxicity of the oyster Crassosstrea gigas in sediment elutriates (filtered and unfiltered). The study covers the main ports from the French Mediterranean coast. Composted sediments from a navy harbour (A), a commercial port (B) and two composite specimens (C and D) obtained after mixing various sediments were taken into consideration. Effective concentrations affecting 50% of larvae (EC50) were obtained from different elutriate concentrations (from 0 to 100%). Toxicity results obtained from filtered elutriates decreased according to the following gradient: sample A (5.68%), B (20.50%), C (37.60%) and D (47.17%). Chemical concentrations in whole sediments were in agreement with those in elutriates. Among the measured contaminants in elutriates, Cu and Zn resulted as the main contributors to toxicity. Dissolved organic carbon played an important role by exerting a protective effect against the toxicity of dissolved Cu. Toxicity results were interpreted on the basis of toxicity scores to give indication about sediment quality which provided more severe judgement than risk score based on chemical concentrations in sediments.

- Abstract
Management of marine dredged sediments polluted with trace elements is prime issue in the French Mediterranean coast. The polluted sediments possess ecological threats to surrounding environment on land disposal. Therefore, stabilization of contaminants in multi-contaminated marine dredged sediment is a promising technique. Present study aimed to assess the effect of gypsum neutralized bauxaline(®) (bauxite residue) to decrease the availability of pollutants and inherent toxicity of marine dredged sediment. Bauxaline(®), (alumia industry waste) contains high content of iron oxide but its high alkalinity makes it not suitable for the stabilization of all trace elements from multi-contaminated dredged sediments. In this study, neutralized bauxaline(®) was prepared by mixing bauxaline(®) with 5% of plaster. Experiments were carried out for 3 months to study the effect of 5% and 20% amendment rate on the availability of Cu, Cd, Zn, As, Mo, and Cr. Trace elements concentration, pH, EC and dissolved organic carbon were measured in all leachates. Toxicity of leachates was assessed against marine rotifers Brachionus plicatilis. The Results showed that both treatments have immobilization capacity against different pollutants. Significant stabilization of contaminants (Cu, Cd, Zn) was achieved with 20% application rate whereas As, Mo, and Cr were slightly stabilized. Toxicity results revealed that leachates collected from treated sediment were less toxic than the control sediment. These results suggest that application of neutralized bauxaline(®) to dredged sediment is an effective approach to manage large quantities of dredged sediments as well as bauxite residue itself., (Copyright © 2016 Elsevier Ltd.

- Abstract
This work investigates arsenic mobility, bioavailability and toxicity in marine port sediments using chemical sequential extraction and laboratory toxicity tests. Sediment samples were collected from two different Mediterranean ports, one highly polluted with arsenic and other inorganic and organic pollutants (Estaque port (EST)), and the other one, less polluted, with a low arsenic content (Saint Mandrier port (SM)). Arsenic distribution in the solid phase was studied using a sequential extraction procedure specifically developed for appraising arsenic mobility in sediments. Toxicity assessment was performed on sediment elutriates, solid phases and aqueous arsenic species as single substance using the embryo-toxicity test on oyster larvae (Crassostrea gigas) and the Microtox test with Vibrio fischeri. Toxicity results showed that all sediment samples presented acute and sub-chronic toxic effects on oyster larvae and bacteria, respectively. The Microtox solid phase test allow to discriminate As-contaminated samples from the less contaminated ones, suggesting that toxicity of whole sediment samples is related to arsenic content. Toxicity of dissolved arsenic species as single substance showed that Vibrio fischeri and oyster larvae are most sensitive to As(V) than As(III). The distribution coefficient (Kd) of arsenic in sediment samples was estimated using results obtained in chemical sequential extractions. The Kd value is greater in SM (450 Lkg(-1)) than in EST (55 Lkg(-1)), indicating that arsenic availability is higher for the most toxic sediment sample (Estaque port). This study demonstrates that arsenic speciation play an important role on arsenic mobility and its bioavailability in marine port sediments., (Copyright © 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.)

- Abstract
With the rapid development of nanotechnology, there is an increasing risk of human and environmental exposure to nanotechnology-based materials. However, the data on the potential environmental effects of nanoparticles are scarce. The aim of this study is to assess the effect of particle size and crystal structure (anatase and rutile) of titanium dioxide on their toxicity. Thus, acute and chronic toxicity tests included a modified acute test (72 h) using daphnies and algae, rotifers and plants as model organisms. Gradient of toxicity varied with the tested biological organisms. Our results revealed that TiO(2) nanoparticles in anatase crystal structure are toxic in the entire set of tests conducted. However, at highconcentration, through their antimicrobial properties, they significantly promoted growth of roots. Because of its lipophilicity, the rutile crystalline structure of TiO(2) NPs form larger aggregates in aqueous medium; then they have less effect on biological organisms, and thus a lower toxicity than the anatase crystalline form of TiO(2). We also demonstrated that exposure duration, aggregation and concentrations are contributing factors in nanoparticles-mediated toxicity., (Copyright © 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.)

- Abstract
The determination of enthalpies of reactions (aqueous and surface complexation) is used in this work to model the temperature effect on the adsorption processes. Microcalorimetry experiments were carried out to determine the enthalpy of adsorption of europium on γ-alumina at 25 °C. The stability constants at 50 °C were then calculated with the van't Hoff equation, and a 2-pK approach was used to model the adsorptive behavior of Eu on alumina at 50 °C, as a function of pH. The results have shown that the adsorption of Eu(3+) on the alumina surface is weakly endothermic. In the experimental conditions considered in the present study, the temperature has only a small effect on the adsorption reaction., (Copyright © 2012 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.)

- Abstract
The aim of this work is to assess the potential ecotoxicological effects of contaminated sediments treated with mineral additives. The Microtox solid phase test was used to evaluate the effect of mineral additives on the toxicity of sediment suspensions. Four Mediterranean port sediments were studied after dredging and bioremediation: Sample A from navy harbor, sample B from commercial port and samples C and D from pleasure ports. Sediment samples were stabilized with three mineral additives: hematite, zero-valent iron and zeolite. Results show that all studied mineral additives can act as stabilizer agent in highly contaminated sediments (A and C) by decreasing dissolved metal concentrations and sediment toxicity level. On the contrary, for the less contaminated samples (B and D) hematite and zeolite can provoke toxic effect towards Vibrio fischeri since additive particles can favor bacteria retention and decrease bioluminescence emission., (Copyright © 2011 Elsevier Ltd.

- Abstract
This study investigated the influence of uranium on the indigenous bacterial community structure in natural soils with high uranium content. Radioactive soil samples exhibiting 0.26% - 25.5% U in mass were analyzed and compared with nearby control soils containing trace uranium. EXAFS and XRD analyses of soils revealed the presence of U(VI) and uranium-phosphate mineral phases, identified as sabugalite and meta-autunite. A comparative analysis of bacterial community fingerprints using denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) revealed the presence of a complex population in both control and uranium-rich samples. However, bacterial communities inhabiting uraniferous soils exhibited specific fingerprints that were remarkably stable over time, in contrast to populations from nearby control samples. Representatives of Acidobacteria, Proteobacteria, and seven others phyla were detected in DGGE bands specific to uraniferous samples. In particular, sequences related to iron-reducing bacteria such as Geobacter and Geothrix were identified concomitantly with iron-oxidizing species such as Gallionella and Sideroxydans. All together, our results demonstrate that uranium exerts a permanent high pressure on soil bacterial communities and suggest the existence of a uranium redox cycle mediated by bacteria in the soil.

- Abstract
This work investigates the ecotoxicological evaluation of contaminated dredged sediments from French Mediterranean navy harbour (A), commercial port (B) and two composite specimens (C) and (D) coming from the mixture of A and B with other port sediments. The toxicity of elutriates from these sediments is estimated using embryo-toxicity test, Microtox® solid phase test, LuminoTox, phytotoxicity tests and genotoxicity test. Bioassay responses are not clearly correlated with chemical contamination in the whole sediment and vary as a function of tested organisms. The highest contaminated samples (A and C) are almost always more toxic than the less contaminated samples (B and D). Among composite sediments, the mixture effect with other sediments is not efficient to decrease toxicity in sample C, suggesting that other parameters influence toxicity level such as particle size or organic matter content. These parameters should be taken into consideration in order to improve the efficiency of the mixture process and produce composite sediments with low toxicity., (Copyright © 2010 Elsevier Ltd.

- Abstract
The enthalpy changes associated with the protonation and deprotonation of an alumina surface have been determined on the basis of microcalorimetry experiments and acid-base potentiometric titrations at 25 degrees C. It has been shown that the results may vary significantly according to the experimental procedure. In order to do so, the potentiometric and microcalorimetric titrations have been carried out first from an acidic pH to basic pH and second from a pH near the pH(zpc) of alumina to acidic or basic pH. It has been demonstrated that the pK(a) values deduced from the potentiometric titrations are the same whatever the experimental protocol whereas the only way to obtain meaningful enthalpies of proton exchange is to carry out microcalorimetric titrations by starting around the point of zero charge.

- Abstract
Competition between selenium (IV) and silicic acid for the hematite (alpha-Fe(2)O(3)) surface has been studied during this work. Single batch experiments have been performed to study separately the sorption of selenium (IV) and silicic acid as a function of the pH. With the help of the 2-pK surface complexation model, experimental data have been fitted using the FITEQL 4.0 program. Two monodentate inner-sphere surface complexes have been used to fit selenite ions retention, triple bond FeSeO(3)(-) and triple bond FeHSeO(3). In order to fit sorption of silicic acid, the two following surface complexes, namely triple bond FeH(3)SiO(4), and triple bond FeH(2)SiO(4)(-), have been used. Using the surface complexation constants coming from these two binary systems, prediction curves of the effect of silicic acid on the retention of selenium (IV) onto hematite have been obtained. Finally, performed experiments showed a competition between selenium (IV) and silicic acid for the surface sites of hematite. Experimental data matched DDLM predictions, confirming the ability of the surface complexation model to predict quantitatively and qualitatively the ternary system selenium (IV)/H(4)SiO(4)/hematite.

- Abstract
Sorption of selenium(IV) and silicic acid onto magnetite (Fe(3)O(4)) was investigated in binary systems, with concentrations of silicic acid under the solubility limit of amorphous silica. Using the double diffuse layer model (DDLM), surface complexation constants of selenium(IV) and H(4)SiO(4) onto magnetite were extracted using Fiteql 4.0. Then, prediction curves of the sorption of selenium(IV) in the presence of silicic acid onto magnetite were obtained, using the calculated surface complexation constants. Finally, laboratory experiments were performed and showed a competition between selenium(IV) and silicic acid for the surface sites of magnetite. Experimental results matched the model predictions, confirming its ability to model qualitatively and quantitatively the ternary system.

- Abstract
Sorption of H(4)SiO(4) (including experiments as a function of time, K(d) measurement with different m/v ratios and sorption edges) onto different iron (hydro)oxides as goethite (alpha-FeOOH), hematite (alpha-Fe(2)O(3)), and magnetite (Fe(3)O(4)) has been studied with concentration of silicates under solubility limit. A surface complexation model has been used to account for sorption edge of silicates onto these iron oxide surfaces. It reveals that two types of surface complex namely FeH(3)SiO(4) and FeH(2)SiO(4)(-), are needed to describe properly the experimental observations.

16. Effect of temperature on the acid-base properties of the alumina surface: microcalorimetry and acid-base titration experiments.

- Abstract
Sorption reactions on natural or synthetic materials that can attenuate the migration of pollutants in the geosphere could be affected by temperature variations. Nevertheless, most of the theoretical models describing sorption reactions are at 25 degrees C. To check these models at different temperatures, experimental data such as the enthalpies of sorption are thus required. Highly sensitive microcalorimeters can now be used to determine the heat effects accompanying the sorption of radionuclides on oxide-water interfaces, but enthalpies of sorption cannot be extracted from microcalorimetric data without a clear knowledge of the thermodynamics of protonation and deprotonation of the oxide surface. However, the values reported in the literature show large discrepancies and one must conclude that, amazingly, this fundamental problem of proton binding is not yet resolved. We have thus undertaken to measure by titration microcalorimetry the heat effects accompanying proton exchange at the alumina-water interface at 25 degrees C. Based on (i) the surface sites speciation provided by a surface complexation model (built from acid-base titrations at 25 degrees C) and (ii) results of the microcalorimetric experiments, calculations have been made to extract the enthalpic variations associated respectively to first and second deprotonation of the alumina surface. Values obtained are deltaH1 = 80+/-10 kJ mol(-1) and deltaH2 = 5+/-3 kJ mol(-1). In a second step, these enthalpy values were used to calculate the alumina surface acidity constants at 50 degrees C via the van't Hoff equation. Then a theoretical titration curve at 50 degrees C was calculated and compared to the experimental alumina surface titration curve. Good agreement between the predicted acid-base titration curve and the experimental one was observed.

- Abstract
In response to the comments of J. Lützenkirchen (237, 297 (2001), J. Colloid Interface Science), it is pointed out that the criticized model is not intended to provide a complete description of the system studied (Cs on silica-magnetite). Rather, it is a simplification of a complex natural system. The accuracy of the obtained predictions requires further investigation. Copyright 2001 Academic Press.

- Abstract
The sorption mechanisms of Eu(3+) on calcium silicate hydrate (CSH) phases of hydrated cement were investigated as a tool for the prediction of the behavior of trivalent radionuclides with aged/degraded cements in radioactive waste repositories. Four techniques were used: site-selective and time-resolved luminescence spectroscopy, XPS, high-resolution SEM coupled with EDX, and XRD. Results showed that europium is not precipitated in the solution despite its low solubility limit. It is strongly retained on CSH, resulting in a more than 99.8% sorption rate. Two main sorption sites were characterized by luminescence spectroscopy. One site, with a long lifetime, can be interpreted as Eu included in the framework of CSH. Another one, with a shorter lifetime, can be interpreted as a site with a hydrated environment that is high but is less than that of europium hydroxide. It corresponds to superficial complexation or precipitation. Copyright 2001 Academic Press.

Marmier N and Fromage F
- Abstract
The sorption of H(4)SiO(4) on magnetite has been qualified and quantified using three different surface complexation models, CCM, DLM, and NEM. The three tested models can account for the sorption of silicates using the same stoichiometry, one neutral species binding on a neutral surface, and the same constant, error aside. Experiments have also been performed to demonstrate that the sorption of dissolved silicates has a nonnegligible effect on the behavior of the surface of magnetite. Then, the sorption of cesium is insignificant on the neat surface of magnetite and is increased up to 10-20% when silicates are present in solution. A theoretical model, where the rule of electrostatics is pointed out, has been developed to account for the experimental observations. This model allows the reproduction of the sorption of cesium in the presence of dissolved silicates for the following four cases: -concentration of silicates under solubility limit -concentration of silicates over solubility limit -binary mixtures of silica and magnetite -natural magnetite with silica as impurity. The reaction given in the model to account for the experimental observations proposes that silicates may act as a "bridge" between the surface of magnetite and cesium. Copyright 2000 Academic Press.

20. Comparing Electrostatic and Nonelectrostatic Surface Complexation Modeling of the Sorption of Lanthanum on Hematite.

Marmier N and Fromage F
- Abstract
The sorption of lanthanum on hematite is studied in experiments for three different surface loading ratios. The experiments consist of following the evolution of the amount of cation sorbed on surface with pH, and as well as measuring the number of protons released during sorption for the three different surface loading conditions. The sorption edge shifts to high pH, and the number of protons released during sorption increases, when the surface loading increases. Three different surface complexation models (SCMs), with three different electrostatic descriptions of the interface, are used to fit the experimental sorption curves. The stoichiometries proposed by the models are compared with the measurement of the protons released. Descriptions of the interface are given by the diffuse layer model (DLM), the constant capacitance model (CCM), and a nonelectrostatic model (NEM). If the fit quality is comparable for the three models, only the electrostatic models are able to account for the dependence of stoichiometry on surface loading. On the other hand, the NEM gives the same stoichiometry, with the same number of protons released, when surface loading conditions change. This is not in agreement with experiment observations. The stoichiometries, confirmed by an independent experiment, and the value of the surface constants obtained are the same, error aside, for DLM and CCM for the three different surface loading ratios. The NEM gives different values, even if the fit quality is comparable. Copyright 1999 Academic Press.

- Abstract
A surface complexation model is used to describe sorption of ytterbium and cesium on the silica surface. The constant capacitance model gives the description of the solid-solution interface chosen for this work. The first step in the modeling consists of extracting the surface acidity constants. The result is: The second step consists of the extraction of surface complexation constants for both ytterbium and cesium. The sorption of the cations is represented as follows: for the ytterbium sorption, for the cesium sorption, In the case of cesium, the sorption of sodium is competitive and has to be considered: Copyright 1999 Academic Press.

- Abstract
The sorption of ytterbium, nickel, and cesium on magnetite is studied via experiments. The affinity of the magnetite surface is greater for ytterbium, then nickel, and nonexistent for cesium. Three different surface complexation models, with three different electrostatic descriptions of the interface, are used to fit the experiment data. These descriptions are given by the double layer model (DLM), the constant capacitance model (CCM), and a nonelectrostatic model (NEM). The results of fits give the same stoichiometries for the surface reactions for the three tested models in similar surface loading conditions. The values of the surface constants obtained are the same, taking into account the error for DLM and CCM. NEM gives different values, even if the fit quality is comparable.
