  2. Iron oxide adsorption - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron_oxide_adsorption

    Arsenic is a common natural contaminant of well water and is highly carcinogenic. Iron oxide adsorption treatment for arsenic in groundwater is a commonly practiced removal process which involves the chemical treatment of arsenic species such that they adsorb onto iron oxides and create larger particles that may be filtered out of the water stream.

  3. Iron in biology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron_in_biology

    Absorption of dietary iron in iron salt form (as in most supplements) varies somewhat according to the body's need for iron, and is usually between 10% and 20% of iron intake. Absorption of iron from animal products, and some plant products, is in the form of heme iron, and is more efficient, allowing absorption of from 15% to 35% of intake.

Thiotimoline: Isaac Asimov: Fictional chemical compound. Its major peculiarity is its "endochronicity": it starts dissolving before it makes contact with water. Thirium Detroit: Become Human

  8. Iron fertilization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron_fertilization

    Ocean iron fertilization is an example of a geoengineering technique that involves intentional introduction of iron-rich deposits into oceans, and is aimed to enhance biological productivity of organisms in ocean waters in order to increase carbon dioxide (CO 2) uptake from the atmosphere, possibly resulting in mitigating its global warming effects.

  9. Superabsorbent polymer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superabsorbent_polymer

    A SAP's ability to absorb water depends on the ionic concentration of the aqueous solution. In deionized and distilled water, a SAP may absorb 300 times its weight [ 4 ] (from 30 to 60 times its own volume) and can become up to 99.9% liquid, and when put into a 0.9% saline solution the absorbency drops to approximately 50 times its weight.
