Adsorption and desorption effect of modified bentonite on soil heavy metal Pb/Cd and the feasibility assessment of reducing the ecotoxicity
Background
Lead and cadmium (Pb/Cd) are pervasive in soils, and their detrimental effects on ecosystems are increasingly evident. Therefore, taking measures to mitigate the toxicity of Pb/Cd is urgently necessary. In this study, bentonite was used as a raw material for modification, and the influence of modified bentonite on the soil adsorption and desorption of Pb/Cd was investigated. The potential application of modified bentonite in mitigating the phytotoxicity of Pb/Cd was evaluated by conducting pot experiments, and the environmental risk was evaluated by acid rain leaching test.
Results
Results indicate that the removal rates of Pb/Cd of BTS obtained by 450℃ calcination and 20% citric acid activation reached 88.03% and 80.04%, respectively. Pb/Cd was primarily adsorbed by BTS through coordination between the groups (e.g., siloxane, hydroxyl, and carboxyl) and Pb/Cd. BTS amendment at an appropriate concentration (1%, 3%, and 5%, w/w) to soils contaminated with Pb/Cd resulted in a significant increase in ryegrass yield and chlorophyll (P < 0.05), and it enhanced root activity and antioxidant enzyme activity. Furthermore, under the effect of acid rain at pH 5.0, the release concentrations of Pb/Cd were the lowest when BTS-5% was added, and the cumulative release concentrations were 2.079 and 1.506 mg·L−1, respectively. The extractable acid state increased before and after leaching, whereas the residual state decreased.
Conclusion
BTS (3% and 5%) can reduce the environmental risk level from a strong risk to a slight risk. Furthermore, the results of this study can provide theoretical basis for the promotion and application of bentonite in pollution control.
期刊介绍:
ESEU is an international journal, focusing primarily on Europe, with a broad scope covering all aspects of environmental sciences, including the main topic regulation.
ESEU will discuss the entanglement between environmental sciences and regulation because, in recent years, there have been misunderstandings and even disagreement between stakeholders in these two areas. ESEU will help to improve the comprehension of issues between environmental sciences and regulation.
ESEU will be an outlet from the German-speaking (DACH) countries to Europe and an inlet from Europe to the DACH countries regarding environmental sciences and regulation.
Moreover, ESEU will facilitate the exchange of ideas and interaction between Europe and the DACH countries regarding environmental regulatory issues.
Although Europe is at the center of ESEU, the journal will not exclude the rest of the world, because regulatory issues pertaining to environmental sciences can be fully seen only from a global perspective.
