Summary
Surface complexation is the process by which aqueous species react chemically with specific sites at the aqueous–solid interface to form surface complexes. This chapter describes in detail electrostatic triple-layer theory and its cousin the CD-MUSIC model, and how the methods can be integrated into multicomponent equilibrium models. A worked example demonstrates how the theory might be applied in the study of natural waters.
