Generic NICA-Donnan model parameters for proton binding by humic substances
Article Abstract:
Proton binding by humic and fulvic acids is analyzed effectively through the NICA-Donnan model. Analysis yields a set of generic parameters for proton binding by humic materials that can be both useful and cost-saving for the research community at large. The NICA-Donnan model is illustrated and supported by multiple charts and graphs.

Metal ion binding to humic substances: application of the non-ideal competitive adsorption model
Article Abstract:
The non-ideal competitive adsorption model was developed to describe the competitive binding of metal ions by humic acids in a chemically heterogeneous system. It was used to describe the binding of hydrogen, calcium, copper and cadmium ions on a purified peat humic acid. The results showed that the model fits the data well over a wide range of free metal ion concentrations and pH range, indicating that the binding of metal ions to humic acids is a function of the effects of ion-specific non-ideality and the chemical heterogeneity of humic material.
