Abstract
Developing health‐protective clean‐up standards and remediation strategies for chromium‐contaminated soils based on the hexavalent forms of this heavy metal is a complex and controversial issue, because certain forms of Cr(III) can oxidize to Cr(VI) and Cr(VI) can be reduced to Cr(III) under diverse soil conditions. The extent of oxidation of Cr(III) in soils amended with wastes is based on four interacting parameters: (1) solubility and form of Cr(III) related to oxidation (waste oxidation potential, or WOP), (2) reactive soil Mn(III,IV) (hydr)oxide levels (soil oxidation potential for Cr(III), or SOP), (3) soil potential for Cr(VI) reduction (soil reduction potential, or SRP), and (4) soil‐waste pH as a modifier of the first three parameters (pH modification value, or PMV). Each of these four parameters can be quantified with laboratory tests and ranked numerically; the sum of which is the Potential Chromium Oxidation Score (PCOS) for assessing the relative hazard of a waste‐soil combination. The PCOS v...
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
