Potential application of a hydrotalcite-like compound for reduction of toxicity to aquatic organisms via rapid and efficient removal of hydrogen sulfide.

Hydrogen sulfide (HS) is known to have wide ranging toxicities not only as a gas but also as dissolved forms in aquatic environments. The diversity of aquatic organisms can be severely affected by hydrogen sulfide at very low concentrations, indicating the urgent necessity to develop an efficient method for removal of hydrogen sulfide in water. In this study, the removal capacity for hydrogen sulfide of our originally developed hydrotalcite-like compound composed of magnesium and iron (MF-HT) was investigated and its potential application for reduction of toxicity to aquatic organisms was evaluated.
