Abstract
Functionalized adsorbents with poly-(4,9-dioxododecane-1,12-guanidine) (SiO2-PDDG) and mercaptophenyl groups (MPhS) were used for the separation of Se(VI) and Se(IV) for the first time. Fixation of PDDG was characterized by capillary electrophoresis and TGA/DSC. The quantitative extraction of Se(VI) proceeded due to anion exchange at pH 3-7. The adsorption capacity of SiO2-PDDG for Se(VI) was 28 μmol g-1. Silicas with mercaptophenyl groups were used for the extraction of Se(IV) from solutions in the range of 2 M HCl - pH 6.5. The adsorption capacity of MPhS was 35 μmol g-1. A system of columns containing synthesized adsorbents was proposed for the separation of Se(VI) and Se(IV) and their subsequent determination by ICP-MS. Optimal parameters of adsorption include a flow rate of 1 mL min-1, pH of 5, and sample volume of 200 mL. Se(IV) was desorbed with 5 mL of 0.25 M 2,3-dimercapto-1-propanesulphonic acid and Se(VI) with 5 mL of 1 M HNO3. The preconcentration factor was 40. The limits of detection (3s) were 0.75 and 1.25 ng L-1 for Se(VI) and Se(IV), respectively. The proposed method (SPE-ICPMS) was used to determine selenium species in natural water and certified reference materials. The separation was carried out directly at the sampling site.

Abstract
Speciation of selenium (Se) is typically carried out using a sophisticated technique such as ICP-MS after preconcentration using an adsorbent; however, the separation and preconcentration of inorganic Se has not been realized in the solutions containing high concentrations of SO42-. A dithiocarbamate-modified cellulose (DMC) was used in this study for the selective extraction and preconcentration of inorganic Se in wastewater, with a portable liquid electrode plasma-optical emission spectrometry (LEP-OES) being employed for quantification. DMC was found to selectively and quantitatively adsorb selenite (SeIV) over a wide range of pH (1.0-8.0); however, less than 3.0% of selenate (SeVI) was adsorbed in a pH range of 3.0-11. Quantitative extraction of SeIV was achieved even in the presence of 3.5 mol L-1 SO42-. The maximum sample volume from which 10 mg of DMC could quantitatively extract SeIV was found to be 500 mL. KOH (0.60 mL, 1.5 mol L-1) was found to quantitatively desorb SeIV retained on the adsorbent and yielded an enrichment factor of 833. The recovery of Se species from synthetic flue-gas desulfurization wastewater containing SeIV and SeVI at concentrations of 5.0 µmol L-1 was 96.2 ± 1.8% and 105.8 ± 1.8%, respectively.

Abstract
Zeolites are materials with known sorption properties. The sorption is thought to progress mainly by ion exchange with Na+, K+, Mg2+, Ca2+ or H+ from the zeolite exchange sites. The aim of the study was to compare the sorption properties of natural and synthetic zeolites on the example of the removal of selected metals from aqueous acidic solutions. Uptake experiments for selected ions of chromium, manganese, selenium, nickel, cobalt, and iron were performed using the batch and kinetic column methods. The sorption of the individual metal ions in mg per 1g of sorbent was determined for each sorbent. The relative affinity sequence of the examined cations toward the various sorbent was presented. The Langmuir model was used to model the adsorption equilibrium. Vermiculite under 1 mm of diameter (SF), Na-X, and Na-A were proved to be the most suitable for the individual uptake of studied metal ions. It was observed that the behavior of selenium ions differed from the remaining ones which was interpreted that selenium undergoes adsorption in the anionic form. The fixed-bed column studies were performed using Na-A, ensuring the sorption of selenium in the presence of iron(III) ions. The experiments were conducted using Na-X zeolite pre-loaded by Fe(III) as well as unmodified sorbent eluted by an equimolar mixture containing 100 ppm of Fe and Se. Obtained results prove that selenium sorption improves if other metal ions such as iron appear in the acidic solution. That efficient selenium sorption conditions can be applied to remove selenium which was recognized as toxic at higher levels.

Abstract
In aquatic ecosystems, there is often no correlation between the total concentration of selenium present in the water column and the toxic effects observed in that environment. This is due, in part, to the variation in the bioavailability of different selenium species to organisms at the base of the aquatic food chain. The first part of this review (Kumkrong et al., 2018) discusses regulatory framework and standard methodologies for selenium analysis in waters. In this second article, we are reviewing the state of speciation analysis and importance of speciation data for decision makers in industry and regulators. We look in detail at fractionation methods for speciation, including the popular selective sequential hydride generation. We examine advantages and limitations of these methods, in terms of achievable detection limits and interferences from other matrix species, as well as the potential to over- or under-estimate operationally-defined fractions based on the various conversion steps involved in fractionation processes. Additionally, we discuss methods of discrete speciation (through separation methods), their importance in analyzing individual selenium species, difficulties associated with their implementation, as well as ways to overcome these difficulties. We also provide a brief overview of biological treatment methods for the remediation of selenium-contaminated waters. We discuss the importance of selenium speciation in the application of these methods and their potential to actually increase the bioavailability of selenium despite decreasing its total waterborne concentration.

Abstract
The polymer, polystyrene polydimethyl siloxane was loaded into the micropipette tip of the syringe system as an adsorbent to developed miniaturized solid phase microextraction. Standard solutions of arsenate and arsenite were passed through the adsorbent loaded in micropipette tip to check the adsorption behaviors. It was observed that arsenate adsorbed on the polystyrene polydimethyl siloxane in the pH rang of 6-8, while arsenite was directly passed through the micropipette tip of syringe system. The adsorbed arsenate in micropipette tip of syringe system were eluted by 1.0M hydrochloric acid. The total inorganic arsenic contents were obtained by the addition of oxidizing agent potassium permanganate into the studied samples before passing to the micropipette tip of syringe system. Arsenite concentration in water samples were measured by subtracting arsenate from total inorganic arsenic concentration. Different characteristics which effect the determination of arsenate specie like amount of adsorbent, adsorption capacity, pH, pulled and pushed cycles for adsorption and desorption, volume of sample, eluent type and it volume were also studied in detail. Enrichment factor and detection limit of arsenate by desired method were 218 and 6.9ngL-1 respectively. The relative standard deviation was 4.1% (n=10, C=0.12µgL-1). Accuracy of the desired technique was confirmed by analysis of the CRMs (Lake Ontario Water TM-28.3 and Riverine Water NRCC-SLRS-4). Desired technique was significantly useful for determination of the total arsenic, arsenate, and arsenite contents in different natural water samples.

Abstract
In this paper, a method of graphene oxide (GO)-TiO2 composite solid phase extraction followed by graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry (GFAAS) detection was proposed for the speciation of inorganic selenium in environmental waters. The adsorption behavior of inorganic Se(IV) and Se(VI) on the GO-TiO2(1:1) composite was investigated. It was found that Se(IV) was quantitatively retained on the GO-TiO2 composites within a wide pH range of 0.5-10, while Se(VI) was quantitatively adsorbed on GO-TiO2(1:1) composite at pH 0.5-2, and no obvious adsorption of Se(VI) within the pH range of 4-10 was found. By selecting pH 6.0, Se(IV) could be easily determined. After reduction of Se(VI), total Se was determined by the proposed method, and Se(VI) was calculated as the difference between the total Se and Se(IV). The factors affecting the separation/preconcentration of Se(IV) and Se(VI) were studied. Under the optimum conditions, the isothermal adsorption of Se(IV) on the GO-TiO2(1:1) composite fitted Langmuir model; a linear range over 0.1-12ngmL(-1) was obtained. The limit of detection (LOD) and precision of the method for Se(IV) was 0.04ngmL(-1) and 9.4% (cSe(IV)=0.5ngmL(-1), n=7), respectively. In order to verify the accuracy of the method, a standard water sample (GSBZ50031-94) was analyzed, and the determined value was in a good agreement to the certified value. The established method was applied to inorganic Se speciation in environmental water samples and the recovery of 87.4-102% was obtained for the spiked samples.

Abstract
A dispersive micro-solid phase extraction (DMSPE) with graphene as a solid adsorbent and ammonium pyrrolidinedithiocarbamate (APDC) as a chelating agent was proposed for speciation and detemination of inorganic selenium by the energy-dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectrometry (EDXRF). In developed DMSPE, graphene particles are dispersed throughout the analyzed solution, therefore reaction between Se(IV)-APDC complexes and graphene nanoparticles occurs immediately. The concentration of Se(VI) is calculated as the difference between the concentration of selenite after and before prereduction of selenate. A central composite face-centered design with 3 center points was performed in order to optimize conditions and to study the effect of four variables (pH of the sample, concentration of APDC, concentration of Triton-X-100, and sample volume). The best results were obtained when suspension consisting of 200 µg of graphene nanosheets, 1.2 mg of APDC and 0.06 mg of Triton-X-100 was rapidly injected to the 50 mL of the analyzed solution. Under optimized conditions Se ions can be determined with a very good recovery (97.7±5.0% and 99.2±6.6% for Se(IV) and Se(VI), respectively) and precision (RSD=5.1-6.6%). Proposed DMSPE/EDXRF procedure allowed to obtain low detection limits (0.032 ng mL(-1)) and high enrichment factor (1013±15). The proposed methodology was successfully applied for the determination of Se in mineral, tap, lake and sea water samples as well as in biological materials (Lobster Hepatopancreas and Pig Kidney).

Abstract
A simple, novel, and selective flow-injection solid-phase extraction with inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry method was developed for the speciation of inorganic selenium in environmental water samples. A mesoporous zirconia film was simply introduced to coat coal cinder by means of the sol-gel technique, and the adsorptive performance of the coated material for Se(IV)/Se(VI) was investigated in different media. Both Se(IV) and Se(VI) can be retained quantitatively by the material in HCl/NaOH (pH 1.0-9.0) media, while only Se(IV) was adsorbed quantitatively in sodium acetate buffer (pH 3.5-6.0). Thus, the assay of Se(VI) is based on subtracting Se(IV) from total selenium by controlling different adsorptive media without employing any redox procedure. Under the optimum conditions, the detection limit of Se(IV) is 9.0 ng/L with an enrichment factor of 100, and the relative standard deviation is 3.6% (n = 9, C = 5.0 ng/mL). The developed method was successfully applied to the speciation of inorganic selenium in environmental water samples with satisfactory results. In order to further verify the accuracy of the developed method, it was applied to analysis of total selenium in GSBZ 50031-94 certified reference environmental water, and the determined values coincided with the certified values very well.

Abstract
Selenium is an essential element for the normal cellular function of living organisms. However, selenium is toxic at concentrations of only three to five times higher than the essential concentration. The inorganic forms (mainly selenite and selenate) present in environmental water generally exhibit higher toxicity (up to 40 times) than organic forms. Therefore, the determination of low levels of different inorganic selenium species in water is an analytical challenge. Solid-phase extraction has been used as a separation and/or preconcentration technique prior to the determination of selenium species due to the need for accurate measurements for Se species in water at extremely low levels. The present paper provides a critical review of the published methods for inorganic selenium speciation in water samples using solid phase extraction as a preconcentration procedure. On the basis of more than 75 references, the different speciation strategies used for this task have been highlighted and classified. The solid-phase extraction sorbents and the performance and analytical characteristics of the developed methods for Se speciation are also discussed.

Abstract
The adsorbent, based on the thermal modification of activated carbon impregnated by iron(III) nitrate(V), has been prepared and applied for selenium enrichment from aqueous solution. Various ratios of the impregnating agent to carbon mass were carefully examined with respect to selenium adsorption capacity and selectivity. The basic Se(VI) ions adsorption parameters affecting the adsorption ability onto the prepared activated carbons were studied. The carbon impregnated by 10% Fe(NO(3))(2) and thermally treated at 200 °C possessed the highest adsorption capacity and selectivity towards selenium ions. The physico-chemical characterization of the prepared adsorbents before and after selenium uptake were carried out using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) equipped with an energy dispersive X-ray detector (EDX) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The studies confirmed the surface complexation reactions of iron species and selenium on the Fe-loaded activated carbon. Due to its high adsorption capacity enrichment of selenium on the studied adsorbent has been successfully applied for its determination in the complementary feeds, using the carbon slurry sampling graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry technique (GFAAS) and standard calibration method.

Abstract
Speciation of selenium in groundwater is essential from the viewpoint of toxicity to organisms and biogeochemical cycling. Selenium speciation in groundwater is controlled by aquifer redox conditions, microbial transformations, dissolved oxygen (DO) and other redox couples. A suburban area of Chennai city in India, where improper waste disposal measures have been practiced is selected for this study. Se(IV), Se(VI) and other hydrochemical parameters were monitored in shallow ground water during pre- and post-monsoon seasons for a period of three years. The objective of the study was to investigate the effect of groundwater recharge on selenium speciation. The concentration of Se(IV), and Se(VI) ranged between 0.15-0.43 μg L(-1) and 0.16-4.73 μg L(-1), respectively. During post-monsoon period the concentration of Se(IV), and Se(VI) ranged between 0.15-1.25 μg L(-1) and 0.58-10.37 μg L(-1), respectively. Se(VI) was the dominant species of selenium during the pre- and post-monsoon periods. During the post-monsoon periods, leaching of selenium from soil was more effective due to the increased oxidizing nature of the groundwater as indicated by the DO and redox potential (Eh) measurements. This finding has important implications on the behavior of selenium in groundwater, and also on the health of people consuming groundwater from seleniferous areas.
