Abstract
Dissolved organic matter (DOM) can strongly interact with both organic and inorganic contaminants to influence their transportation, transformation, bioavailability, toxicity and even their ultimate fate. Within this work, DOM was extracted from urban stormwater runoff samples collected from a regular sampling site of a typical residential area in Beijing, China. Copper(II) ions were selected as model to investigate the interactions between DOM and typical heavy metals. Both ultraviolet (UV) absorbance and fluorescence titration methods were introduced to determine the complex capacities (CL) and conditional stability constants (log KM) of bonding between DOM and copper (II) ions, which revealed that the values of CL were 85.62 and 87.23 μmol mg-1 and the log KM values were 5.37 and 5.48, respectively. The results suggested the successful complexation between DOM and copper(II) ions. Furthermore, morphology of the DOM binding to copper(II) ions was confirmed by both energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), which can facilitate to clarify the corresponding mechanism. The Cu 2p3/2 peak at 933.7 eV and the characteristic shake-up peaks of Cu-O were found in the XPS spectra, implying that copper(II) ions might coordinate with hydroxyl (aliphatic or phenolic) or carboxyl groups. With these profitable results, it can be concluded that DOM in urban stormwater runoff has a strong binding affinity with copper(II) ions, which may further lead to potentially significant influence on their migration and transformation.

Abstract
A novel method for determination of trace mercury in water is developed. The method is performed by extracting mercury firstly with ionic liquids (ILs) and then detecting the concentration of mercury in organic media with anodic stripping voltammetry. Liquid-liquid extraction of mercury(II) ions by four ionic liquids with N-octylpyridinium cations ([OPy](+)) was studied. N-octylpyridinium tetrafluoroborate and N-octylpyridinium trifluoromethylsulfonate were found to be efficient and selective extractant for mercury. Temperature controlled dispersive liquid phase microextraction (TC-DLPME) technique was utilized to improve the performance of preconcentration. After extraction, precipitated IL was diluted by acetonitrile buffer and mercury was detected by differential pulse stripping voltammetry (DPSV) with gold disc electrode. Mercury was enriched by 17 times while interfering ions were reduced by two orders of magnitude in the organic media under optimum condition. Sensitivity and selectivity for electrochemical determination of mercury were improved by using the proposed method. Tap, pond and waste water samples were analyzed with recoveries ranging from 81% to 107% and detection limit of 0.05 μg/L.

Abstract
A method employing dual competitive ligand exchange followed by solid phase extraction (CLE-SPE) for characterizing the complexation of inorganic Hg(II) in natural waters is described. This method employs parallel use of two competing ligands: diethyldithiolcarbamate (DEDC), which forms hydrophobic complexes with Hg(II), and thiosalicylic acid (TSA), which forms hydrophilic complexes with Hg(II). Inorganic mercury complexed by natural and competing ligands are separated based on hydrophobicity using C18 solid phase extraction columns. Data modeling allows for the calculation of the concentration and conditional stability constants of natural ligands capable of complexing Hg(II) in both the operationally defined hydrophilic and hydrophobic fractions. The use of multiple ligand concentrations, and thus multiple analytical windows, to characterize different ligand classes within both of these two fractions is described. Studies of the kinetics of the ligand exchange involved, potential for changes in the stability of natural ligands during freezing and thawing, potential breakthrough during solid phase extraction, as well as the method's precision and estimation of error, are presented and discussed. Results from the application of the method to natural freshwaters demonstrated that in the limited samples collected over 99.99% of the ambient inorganic mercury is strongly complexed by ligands with conditional stability constants (K(HgL)(cond), Hg2+) on the order of 10(30), values similar to that of reduced sulfur ligands. At ambient conditions 85-90% of the mercury exists in hydrophobic complexes in these freshwaters, but strong Hg-binding ligands exist in both the hydrophobic and hydrophilic fractions.

Abstract
Foam fractionation is a proven technique for separation of heavy metals. This technique was used for separation of mercury from aqueous solutions. It was found that knowledge of mercury-containing species is essential for this process. A rigorous method is presented for estimating the distribution of free and complex mercury-containing species in aqueous solutions. The chelates of Hg(2+) with ligands such as Cl(-) and OH(-) are quite stable leading to conclude that poor or no separation results when the pH is reduced by HCl or held alkaline. Experimental results indicated that the efficiency of mercury removal closely correlates with pH as well as the concentration of positively charged mercury-containing species. They also indicated that this efficiency is higher at lower Hg concentrations. A removal efficiency of approximately 80% was resulted for solutions containing 2.5x10(-5)M Hg in highly acidic media. It was noticed that this efficiency would drop almost to zero as pH was raised to around 5.5. The theoretical findings were in close agreement with the experimental results.

Abstract
The lipid-like, amphiphilic solvent, n-octanol, has been used to determine a hydrophobic fraction of dissolved and particulate trace metals (Al, Cd, Co, Cu, Mn, Ni, Pb, Zn) in contaminated rivers. In a sample from the River Clyde, southwest Scotland, octanol-solubility was detected for all dissolved metals except Co, with conditional octanol-water partition coefficients, D(ow), ranging from about 0.2 (Al and Cu) to 1.25 (Pb). In a sample taken from the River Mersey, northwest England, octanol-solubility was detected for dissolved Al and Pb, but only after sample aliquots had been spiked with individual ionic metal standards and equilibrated. Spiking of the River Clyde sample revealed competition among different metals for hydrophobic ligands. Metal displacement from hydrophobic complexes was generally most significant following the addition of ionic Al or Pb, although the addition of either of these metals had little effect on the octanol-solubility of the other. In both river water samples hydrophobic metals were detected on the suspended particles retained by filtration following their extraction in n-octanol. In general, particulate Cu and Zn (up to 40%) were most available, and Al, Co and Pb most resistant (<1%) to octanol extraction. Distribution coefficients defining the concentration ratio of octanol-soluble particle-bound metal to octanol-soluble dissolved metal were in the range 10(3.3)-10(5.3)mlg(-1). The presence of hydrophobic dissolved and particulate metal species has implications for our understanding of the biogeochemical behaviour of metals in aquatic environments. Specifically, such species are predicted to exhibit characteristics of non-polar organic contaminants, including the potential to penetrate the lipid bilayer. Current strategies for assessing the bioavailability and toxicity of dissolved and particulate trace metals in natural waters may, therefore, require revision.

Abstract
The Biotic Ligand Model (BLM) attempts to predict metal toxicity to aquatic organisms on the basis of metal speciation and effects at the cell surface. Current versions of the BLM for silver and copper consider metal binding by inorganic ligands, dissolved organic matter (DOM) and also competition at the cell surface from calcium and protons (pH). Recent studies reported in the geochemical and ecotoxicological literature have indicated the importance of sulfide as a ligand, even in fully oxygenated aquatic systems. Speciation calculations for oxygenated waters do not currently include reduced sulfur as a ligand and as a consequence, no version of the BLM model has been published including reduced sulfur. This reflects the limitations on our knowledge regarding reduced sulfur in aquatic systems. In this paper we highlight the need to include reduced sulfur in the Biotic Ligand Model, with the interaction between silver and inorganic metal sulfides as a specific example. The geochemical importance of metal sulfides as ligands for silver and the effect of 'dissolved' metal sulfide and other ligands on metal toxicity and accumulation are described and reviewed. Recommendations are made for future work needed to incorporate sulfide ligands into the BLM's modeling framework.

Abstract
The fate and environmental threat posed by mercury in aquatic systems is controlled, in part, bythe transport of Hg(II) from oxic to anoxic zones in lakes and its subsequent transformation to organic mercury. The transport of Hg(II) in aquatic systems can be affected by its partitioning between the dissolved and particulate phases. In this study, batch experiments were performed to quantify Hg(II) adsorption to Bacillus subtilis as bacteria-to-metal ratio, pH, chloride concentration, growth phase, and reaction time were independently varied. The laboratory data were well described by a surface complexation model (SCM) considering the adsorption of neutral Hg(II) hydroxide and chloride complexes by specific functional groups on the bacterial surface. To evaluate its applicability to complex aquatic systems, the SCM was used to predict the distributions of Hg(II) in 36 shallow acidic lakes and wetlands in Kejimkujik National Park, Nova Scotia, Canada. The lab-derived SCM provided a statistically accurate (r2 = 0.615, P < 0.01) fit to the field data when it was expanded to consider Hg(II) complexation by dissolved organic matter. Inclusion of Hg(II)-mineral adsorption reactions did not improve the fit of the model. The quality of fit provided by the expanded SCM suggested that the major assumptions implicit in applying a lab-derived model to the field were justifiable. Our study has demonstrated that SCMs are powerful tools for dynamic prediction of the sorption of environmental contaminants to biocolloids at the regional scale.
