Abstract
Results of studying Fe(III) hydrolysis and sorption of heavy metal compounds by organic matter of bottom sediments are discussed. The rate of Fe(III) hydrolysis is found to be largely determined by the concentration of dissolved organic substances. Values of kinetic parameters are obtained for heavy metal compounds sorption under static and dynamic conditions. Calculating the solubility of Fe, Cu, Cd, Zn, and Pb sulfides allowed the assessment of the amount of metals lost by bottom sediments due to the formation of metal complexes with dissolved organic substances contained in natural waters.
