The control of solution composition on ligand-promoted dissolution: DTPA-Barite interactions

The mechanism and kinetics of barite (BaSO4) dissolution in the presence of diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA) has been investigated as a function of solution composition. The dependence of the reaction rate on the background electrolyte present in solution (NaCl or KCl) and on the concentrat...
