Congratulation to the DOE Fellow, PhD Candidate in Chemistry, Hansell Gonzalez-Raymat! His paper titled, “Unrefined humic substances as a potential low-cost amendment for the management of acidic groundwater contamination” co-authored with Drs.Vasileios Anagnostopoulos, Miles Denham, Yong Cai, and Yelena Katsenovich was accepted for the publication in the Journal of Environmental Management! Hansell’s study explores a novel application of Huma-K, a commercially available, unrefined humic substance, as a promising low-cost source of organic matter for in situ remediation of contaminated acidic groundwater plumes. This can be achieved by creating a humic-rich coating on the surface of minerals which can enhance the sorption of contaminants from groundwater.
