In the present paper, α-FeOOH and α-Fe(Al)OOH were prepared, and the adsorption of Cr(VI) on the two samples was investigated. The influence of pH, initial concentration, and some anions such as SO4 2?, H2PO4 ?, C2O4 2?, CO3 2?, and SiO3 2? on the adsorption of Cr(VI) on α-FeOOH and α-Fe(Al)OOH was studied by batch techniques. The results show that the adsorption capacity of Cr(VI) on α-Fe(Al)OOH increases with the introduction of aluminum, but decreases with the increase of pH. The adsorption irreversibility of Cr(VI) on α-Fe(Al)OOH is much higher than that on pure α-FeOOH. The adsorbed Cr(VI) species mainly exists in the form of *Fe(wk)-OHCrO4 2? on the surface of the samples. With the presence of SiO3 2?, CO3 2?, C2O4 2?, SO4 2?, and H2PO4 ?, the binding of Cr(VI) is inhibited by different degree. The inhibition of those anions is larger in the pure goethite than that in the Al-substituted goethite system. After Al was introduced into α-FeOOH, Cr(VI) ions are preferentially adsorbed on Al sites rather than Fe sites on α-Fe(Al)OOH.  相似文献

Iron hydroxides are subdivided into thermodynamically unstable (ferrihydrite, feroxyhyte, and lepidocrocite) and stable (goethite) minerals. Hydroxides are formed either from Fe3+ (as ferrihydrite) or Fe2+ (as feroxyhyte and lepidocrocite). The high amount of feroxyhyte in ferromanganic concretions is proved, which points to the leading role of variable redox conditions in the synthesis of hydroxides. The structure of iron hydroxides is stabilized by inorganic elements, i.e., ferrihydrite, by silicon; feroxyhyte, by manganese; lepidocrocite, by phosphorus; and goethite, by aluminum. Ferrihydrite and feroxyhyte are formed with the participation of biota, whereas the abiotic formation of lepidocrocite and goethite is possible. The iron hydroxidogenesis is more pronounced in podzolic soils than in chernozems, and it is more pronounced in iron-manganic nodules than in the fine earth. Upon the dissolution of iron hydroxides, iron isotopes are fractioned with light-weight 54Fe atoms being dissolved more readily. Unstable hydroxides are transformed into stable (hydr)oxides, i.e., feroxyhyte is spontaneously converted to goethite, and ferrihydrite, to hematite or goethite.  相似文献

The soil dynamics of hexavalent Cr, a particularly mobile and toxic metal, is of a great environmental concern, and its availability to plants depends on various soil properties including soil organic matter. Thus, in a pot experiment, we added 50?mg Cr(VI) kg?1 soil and studied Cr(VI) soil extractability and availability to spinach, where we applied both natural (zeolite), synthetic adsorptive materials (goethite and zeolite/goethite) and organic matter with farmyard manure. We found that, compared to the unamended control plants, dry matter weight in the Cr(VI)-added soil was greatly decreased to 17?% of the control, and height was decreased to 34?% of the control, an indication of Cr toxicity. Also, exchangeable Cr(VI) levels in soil decreased back to the unamended control even in the first soil sampling time. This was much faster than the exchangeable Cr(VI) levels in the mineral-added soil, where Cr(VI) levels were decreased to the levels of the unamended control in the third sampling time. The positive effect of organic matter was also indicated in the Cr quantity soil-to-plant transfer coefficient (in grams of Cr in plant per kilogram of Cr added in soil), a phyto-extraction index, which was significantly higher in the manure-amended (1.111?g?kg?1) than in the mineral-added treatments (0.568?g?kg?1). Our findings show that organic matter eliminates the toxicity of added Cr(VI) faster than the mineral phases do and enhances the ability of spinach to extract from soil greater quantities of Cr(VI) compared to mineral-added soils.  相似文献

Abstract

Phytotoxicity, due to chromium [Cr (VI)] additions from low to very high levels in a swell–shrink clayey soil (Haplustert), in maize and spinach was studied in a pot culture experiment. Six levels of Cr (VI) (0, 5, 10, 25, 50, and 75 mg kg?1 soil) for maize and five levels for spinach (0, 2, 5, 10, and 25 mg kg?1 soil) were applied singly and in combination with two doses (0 and 20 t ha?1) of city compost. At levels of more than 75 mg Cr (VI) kg?1 soil for maize there was virtually no growth after germination, whereas 25 mg Cr (VI) kg?1 soil hindered the germination of spinach crop. Initial symptoms of Cr (VI) toxicity appeared as severe wilting of the tops of treated plants. Maize plants suffering from severe Cr (VI) toxicity had smaller roots and narrow brownish red leaves covered with small necrotic spots. In spinach, severe chlorosis was observed in leaves. Higher levels of Cr (VI) inhibited the growth and dry‐matter yield of the crops. However, application of city compost alleviated the toxic effect of Cr (VI). The concentration of Cr (VI) in plant parts increased when Cr (VI) was applied singly but decreased considerably when used in combination with city compost. There was evidence of an antagonistic effect of Cr (VI) on other heavy‐metal (Mn, Cu, Zn, and Fe) concentrations in plant tops. Thus, when Cr (VI) concentration increases, the concentration of other beneficial metals decreases. Chromium (VI) concentration in maize roots ranged from traces (control) to 30 mg kg?1and were directly related to soil Cr (VI) concentration. At 25 mg Cr (VI) kg?1 soil, yield of maize was reduced to 41% of control plants, whereas in spinach, 10 mg Cr (VI) kg?1 soil caused a 33% yield reduction. Experimental results revealed that the maize top (cereal) is less effective in accumulating Cr (VI) than spinach (leafy vegetables). Laboratory studies were also conducted to know Cr (VI) sorption capacity of a swell–shrink clayey soil with and without city compost, and it was found that Cr (VI) sorption reaction was endothermic and spontaneous in nature.  相似文献

ABSTRACT

Modification of biochar using chitosan and hematite made the biochar product more effective for hexavalent chromium (Cr (VI)) reduction in contaminated soils. Release experiment was conducted to examine Cr (VI) reduction in different treatments (control, unmodified biochar and two modified biochars with chitosan or hematite). The results indicated that the application of all treatments significantly decreased the release rate of Cr in comparison to the control treatment. Chitosan-modified biochar application increased Cr (VI) reduction from 28.53% (biochar) to 46.23%. In the case of hematite-modified biochar, it increased Cr (VI) reduction from 28.55% (biochar) to 38.95%. Two kinetic equations including pseudo-first-order and pseudo-second-order models employed to describe the time-dependent Cr release data. Between the kinetic equations estimated, the pseudo-second order best fitted to experimental data. In the presence of Pseudomonas putida, cumulative Cr release rate decreased by 2.38 mg kg?1 (50.29%) in hematite–biochar and 1.768 mg kg?1 (39.73%) in unmodified biochar as compared with control (4.43 mg kg?1). According to results reported herein, modification of biochar with chitosan or hematite is promising since made biochar more effective in removing Cr from Cr-polluted calcareous soils.  相似文献

Infrared spectroscopy was used to show that arsenate is adsorbed on the surface of synthetic goethite (α-FeOOH) as the acidic HAsO42- ion, replacing singly coordinated surface OH groups. In this respect, arsenate is analogous to phosphate, but its larger size apparently causes it to interact more strongly with some of the OH groups that remain on the surface. This has suggested an alternative assignment for the absorption bands of these OH groups.  相似文献

Chromium occurs naturally at trace levels in most soils and water, but disposal of industrial waste and sewage sludge containing chromium compounds has created a number of contaminated sites, which could pose a major environmental threat. This study was conducted to enumerate and isolate chromium-resistant microorganisms from sediments of evaporation ponds of a metal processing plant and determine their tolerance to other metals, metalloids and antibiotics. Enumeration of the microbiota of Cr-contaminated sediments and a clean background sample was conducted by means of the dilution-plate count method using media spiked with Cr(VI) at concentrations ranging from 10 to 1000 mg L?1. Twenty Cr(VI) tolerant bacterial isolates were selected and their resistance to other metals and metalloids, and to antibiotics was assessed using a plate diffusion technique. The number of colony-forming units (cfu) of the contaminated sediments declined with increasing concentrations from 10 to 100 mg L?1 Cr(VI), and more severely from 100 to 1000 mg L?1 Cr(VI). The background sample behaved similarly to 100 mg L?1 Cr(VI), but the cfu declined more rapidly thereafter, and no cfu were observed at 1000 mg L?1 Cr(VI). Metals and metalloids that inhibited growth (from the most to least inhibitory) were: Hg > Cd > Ag > Mo = As(III) at 50 μg mL?1. All 20 isolates were resistant to Co, Cu, Fe, Ni, Se(IV), Se(VI), Zn, Sn, As(V), Te and Sb at 50 μg mL?1 and Pb at 100 μg mL?1. Eighty-five percent of the isolates had multiple antibiotic resistance. In general, the more metal-tolerant bacteria were among the more resistant to antibiotics. It appears that the Cr-contaminated sediments may have enriched for bacterial strains with increased Cr(VI) tolerance.  相似文献

ADSORPTION ON HYDROUS OXIDES I. OXALATE AND BENZOATE ON GOETHITE   总被引：3，自引：0，他引：3  
The adsorption of oxalic acid on synthetic goethite (α-FeOOH) was studied using adsorption isotherms. Infrared spectra were obtained for goethite-oxalate complexes at several points on the isotherms. On a goethite preparation with a phosphate sorption capacity of 200|μmolg?1 the amounts of oxalate strongly adsorbed varied from near zero at pH 8 to about l00μmolg?1 at pH 4 and below. At pH 3.4, the first l00μmolg?1 of oxalic acid added was strongly adsorbed as a binuclear complex (FeOOC–COOFe), replacing two singly-coordinated OH groups by ligand exchange. At higher concentrations a further 200 μrnol g?1 of oxalic acid formed a monodentate complex (FeOOC–COOH) so that more oxalate could be accommodated. Benzoic acid was weakly adsorbed on goethite with one benzoate oxygen replacing one singly-coordinated OH. The other oxygen of the COO group fitted into the goethite surface so that the benzene ring was at a high angle to the (100) face.  相似文献

以高岭石、蒙脱土、针铁矿和三水铝石四种单一典型土壤矿物以及针铁矿-蒙脱石和三水铝石-蒙脱石（质量比为1:1）两种代表性土壤矿物复合体为吸附材料，采用吸附平衡实验、能谱分析（(EDS）、红外光谱、扫描电镜、酸碱滴定和zeta电位测定等方法，研究了铁铝氧化物与层状硅酸盐矿物之间的相互作用对Cr(Ⅵ)和As(Ⅴ)吸附的影响及其机制。吸附平衡实验和EDS实验结果表明，两种复合体对Cr(Ⅵ)和As(Ⅴ)的吸附容量均小于其两种组成矿物单一体系吸附量的平均值，即铁铝氧化物与蒙脱石的互作降低了这些氧化物对Cr(Ⅵ)和As(Ⅴ)的吸附能力。表面性质表征结果表明，与蒙脱石复合后，针铁矿与三水铝石表面的正电荷均被完全中和，电荷符号发生反转。与理论值相比，三水铝石-蒙脱石复合体的表面位点总浓度无明显变化，比表面积减小。针铁矿-蒙脱石复合体的比表面积与理论值无明显差异，但矿物表面位点浓度减小，表面羟基红外吸收峰强度减弱。氧化物与层状硅酸盐矿物互作改变了矿物表面性质，这可能是导致氧化物对Cr(Ⅵ)和As(Ⅴ)的吸附能力降低的主要原因。当评估污染元素在土壤中有效性时应当考虑土壤固相组分间的互作对离子吸附的影响。  相似文献

Abstract

Chromium (Cr) appears in two stable forms in nature as Cr(III) and Cr(VI). Hexavalent chromium (CrO4 2‐; Cr2O7 2‐) is very toxic and carcinogenic, while inorganic Cr(III), however, is essential for mammals. Only two methods, atomic absorption and inductively coupled plasma atomic emission (ICP) spectrometry, provide information on the total amount of Cr in a test solution. This is the reason that several efforts have been made with regard to Cr speciation. Either an acidic or a basic activated aluminum oxide and a reversed phase C‐18 column or an ion exchanger column are used for the separation of chromium(III) from chromium(VI) in FIA and HPLC analyses. In our experiments, acidic‐activated aluminum oxide was used for separation. This alumina was placed into a silicon tube and connected to an ICP spectrometer between the nebulizer and peristaltic pump. The average grain size of the alumina was large enough that the solution could be pumped through the micro column. Acidic‐activated aluminum oxide in the 2.0 to 8.0 pH range adsorbs the chromate anion but not the Cr(III) cation. During this stage, the Cr(III) content of a sample is measurable. The adsorbed chromate can be eluted with a strong acid. The height or area of the elution peak can be used for the calibration of Cr(VI). Detection limits of 4 μg/kg and 0.5 μg/kg were obtained for Cr(III) and Cr(VI), respectively. The effects of sulphate and phosphate anions on the surface of the alumina on chromate adsorption were also evaluated. This method was used for the measurement of Cr(VI) concentration by 0.01M CaCl2 extraction of soil.  相似文献

Partial reduction of iron(III) oxides with hydrogen in the presence of a platinum catalyst leads to an equilibrium state after 4–20 h. From the measured Eh, pH, and Fe2+ concentration conditional standard potentials can be calculated using the formula Eo (volt) = Eh + 0.059 lg(Fe2+) + 0.18 pH which indicate the stability of Fe oxides against reduction. The reduceability decreases following the order ferrihydrite > lepidocrocite > hematite > goethite. The difference between hematite and goethite was more pronounced than that predicted from thermodynamic data.  相似文献

Abstract

A rapid, sensitive, and accurate method for the separation and speciative determination of chromium (Cr)(VI) and Cr(III) in water samples has been developed using sorption as the separation technique in conjunction with final determination by electrothermal atomic absorption spectroscopy (ETAAS). The present method, where granular calcite is used as selective sorbent, separates Cr(III) with retention values up to 99%, resulting in high accuracy determination of Cr(VI). Total Cr was likewise determined by ETAAS after an efficient reduction of Cr(VI) to Cr(III) using ascorbic acid as reducing agent, deriving Cr(III) concentration from the difference between total Cr and Cr(VI). The parameters of the separation technique, solution pH (4.5–5.5), solution flow rate through the calcite column (0.14–0.42 mL min?1), and calcite column internal diameter (1.5–3.0 cm), were evaluated. Best results were achieved with pH of 5.5, flow rate of 0.42 mL min?1, and column internal diameter of 1.5 cm. Optimum determination conditions were found using magnesium nitrate [Mg(NO3)2] as chemical modifier, pyrolysis, and atomization temperatures of 1400 and 2200°C, respectively. In such conditions, the detection limits (n=10) were 1.5 and 0.8 µg L?1 for Cr(III) and Cr(VI), respectively.  相似文献

Chromium-containing industrial effluents are primarily responsible for environmental contamination by toxic and highly mobile, hexavalent chromium. The dilution plate-count method, using media amended with Cr(VI) at concentrations ranging from 0 to 1000 mg L-1, was used to compare the sizes of Cr(VI)-resistant bacterial populations from a soil contaminated with 25 100 mg kg-1 total Cr [12 400 mg kg-1 Cr(VI)] to those isolated from a slightly contaminated soil (99.6 mg kg-1 total Cr) and two other soils without any history of Cr contamination. Bacterial populations resistant to 500 mg L-1 Cr(VI) were isolated from all soils except the heavily contaminated soil. To determine whether Cr-resistant bacterial populations were indigenous to both the contaminated and the uncontaminated soils, enrichment cultures containing Cr(VI) at concentrations ranging from 0 to 1000 mg L-1 were employed. Bacterial populations, as high as 105 (colony forming units) CFU g-1 soil, tolerant of 500 mg L-1 Cr(VI) were isolated from all soils within 48 h of enrichment suggesting that the presence of aerobic Cr(VI)-resistant bacterial populations is unrelated to contamination levels or contamination history. However, identification of these resistant bacteria using fatty acid profiles was unsuccessful suggesting that these populations may have unique characteristics. Fungal colonies resistant to 1000 mg L-1 Cr(VI) were routinely isolated from both uncontaminated and contaminated soils. The results suggest that Cr-resistant microorganisms may be present in soils, even those with no history of Cr contamination.  相似文献

This study describes application of free liquid membrane (FLM) in micro-electromembrane extraction (μ-EME) of Cr(VI) from wastewater samples. Amount of Cr(VI) was quantified by electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry. The transportation of Cr(VI) across the FLM was explored by electrokinetic migration and ion-exchange process. FLM and acceptor solution types, pH of donor and acceptor solutions, applied electrical potential, as well as FLM thickness were optimized. Presence of an anion exchange carrier (methyl trialkyl-ammonium chloride, Aliquat 336) in FLM facilitated Cr(VI) transportation. The best performance was observed for 1-octanol (containing 5% Aliquat 336) with thickness of 1 mm used as FLM, under applied electrical potential of 75 V, when 0.5 M NaClO4 and 0.1 M HCl were used as the acceptor and donor phases, respectively; and the extraction time was set to 5 min. Linearity was obtained in the working range of 0.5–14.0 ng mL?1 Cr(VI) (R2?>?0.98). The calculated limit of detection was below 0.06 ng mL?1. Application of this method to wastewater samples showed that relative recoveries of the spiked Cr(VI) in the samples were in the range of 73.8–85.1%, based on the standard addition method.  相似文献

Chromium（Cr） may cause losses in the yield of field plant, which is one of the favorite habitats of Bacillus thuringiensis（Bt）. The purposes of our study were to assess the Cr（VI）-resistance and Cr（VI）-reducing abilities of an indigenous soil isolate of Bt and to determine the factors governing Cr（VI） reduction. Towards this end a novel dichromate-reducing Bt BRC-ZYR2, characterized with insecticidal crystal proteins（ICPs）, was isolated from a uranium deposit. Minimum inhibitory concentrations（MICs） of Cr（VI） were determined by broth dilution method and the concentrations of Cr（VI） and total Cr in the supernatant were quantified colorimetrically using 1,5-diphenylcarbazide（DPC） reagent and a mixture of sulfuric-nitric acids, respectively. The isolate contained five ICP genes（cry1Ba, cry1 Bb, cry1Be/cry1 Bf, cry9 Ca and cry9Da） and exhibited a high level of Cr（VI） resistance with MICs of 150 mg L-1at pH 7.0 and 30？C, and 500 mg L-1under optimal conditions（pH 9.0 and 40？C）. The total Cr concentration was similar to initial concentration of Cr（VI） under the optimal condition, suggesting that the essential removal of the Cr（VI） was dependent on Bt reduction. Under optimal conditions, the initial Cr（VI） concentrations from 25 to 75 mg L-1significantly decreased in 24 h after incubation. Addition of Mn2＋, Co2＋, Mo2＋and Cu2＋activated Bt-mediated Cr（VI） reduction, while Zn2＋, Ni2＋and glucose were found to inhibit the reduction. Our results indicated that this isolate could be a promising biopesticide with the potential for both insect biocontrol and Cr bioremediation in the field.  相似文献

The toxicity of single metal ions: Al, Co(II), Cr(III), Cu(II), Fe(III), Mg, Mn(II), Mo(VI), Ni(II), Se(VI), V(V) and Zn and the following pairs of them: Al-Co, Al-Mg, Al-Mo, Al-Se, Al-Zn, Cr-Co, Cr-Mg, Cr-Mo, Cr-Se, Cr-Zn, Cu-Co, Cu-Mg, Cu-Mo, Cu-Se, Cu-Zn, Fe-Co, Fe-Mg, Fe-Mo, Fe-Se, Fe-Zn, Mn-Co, Mn-Mg, Mn-Mo, Mn-Se, Mn-Zn, Ni-Co, Ni-Mg, Ni-Mo, Ni-Se, Ni-Zn, V-Co, V-Mg, V-Mo, V-Se, V-Zn, Zn-Co, Zn-Mg, Zn-Mo, and Zn-Se on Daphnia magna was examined. The most prominent antagonism in the toxicity was observed in the following ion pairs: Al-Mo(VI), Cr(III)-Co(II), Cr(III)-Mg, Cr(III)-Mo(VI), Cr(III)-Se(VI), Cr(III)-Zn, Fe(III)-Se(VI), Mn(II)-Mg, Mn(II-Se(VI), Zn-Mg and Zn-Mo(VI). The strong synergism was found for the following ion systems: Cr(III)-Se(VI), Cr(III)-Zn, Fe(III)-Se(VI), Mn(II)-Zn, Mn(II)-Se(VI), Ni(II)-Co(II), Ni(II)-Mo(VI), Ni(II)-Se(VI), Ni(II)-Zn, V(V)-Co(II), V(V)-Mo(VI), V(V)- Se(VI), and V(V)-Zn. Synergism and antagonism in toxicity were dependent on water hardness as well as on the ion concentration. Adaptive procesess of the animals to the toxic environment could also be observed. Thus, the toxicity of the single ions and their pairs was not linear with respect to time.  相似文献

Reduction of Cr(VI) by soil humic acids   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  
The rate of hexavalent chromium reduction by a soil humic acid (SHA) was investigated in aqueous solutions where concentrations of Cr(VI), H+, and SHA were independently varied. Rate experiments were done with a large excess of SHA over Cr(VI). Rates of reduction depend strongly on [H+], increasing with decreasing pH. Typical Cr(VI)-SHA reactions display a nonlinear reduction of Cr(VI) with time that cannot be modelled with simple first- or second-order rate equations. An empirical rate equation is developed for Cr(VI)-soil humic acid reactions over a range of experimental conditions. The model is in part based on a reactive continuum concept developed for soil fulvic acids. The rate equation describing Cr(VI) reduction by SHA is: R= -(k0+k[H+]1/2)[HCrO4?]1/2Xe?1, where k0 is (8·3 ± 1·2) × 10?12, s?1k is (2·04 ± 0·05) × 10?9 l1/2 mol?1/2 s?1, and Xe is the equivalent fraction of SHA oxidized. The rate equation adequately models Cr(VI) reduction in an experiment with [Cr(VI)]0 four times greater than the maximum concentration used in its derivation. Cr(VI) reduction at pH 3 by two other SHAs can also be modelled using the rate equation. The difference between the rate coefficients for the humic acid and the fulvic acid from the same soil was greater than the difference in the rate coefficients for humic acids from different soils.  相似文献

Analytical procedure for the determination of exchangeable Cr(VI) was developed. In order to optimise the extraction procedure, the efficiency of extraction of exchangeable Cr(VI) in soil samples was investigated in KH2PO4–K2HPO4 buffer solutions (0.015 up to 0.2 mol l?1), adjusted to the pH of the soil. Phosphate buffer was used to efficiently desorb Cr(VI) from soil particles. The extraction time (mechanical shaking) ranged from 1 up to 72 h. Cr(VI) in soil extracts was determined by anion-exchange fast protein liquid chromatography with electrothermal atomic absorption detection (FPLC-ETAAS). The study was performed on soil samples from the field treated with the tannery waste for seventeen years. Samples were analysed in the 16 year after the last waste application. It was experimentally proven that the optimal phosphate buffer concentration was 0.1 mol l?1 and extraction time 16 h. An additional experiment was done to confirm that during the extraction, soluble Cr(III) was not oxidised to Cr(VI) by Mn(IV) oxides present in soil samples. For this purpose soil with the same characteristics, but not treated with tannery waste, was spiked with Cr(III) and the analytical procedure performed. No measurable Cr(VI) concentrations were detected. The repeatability of measurement was 2.5%, while the reproducibility of measurement was 6.9%. The accuracy of the analytical procedure was tested by spiking of soil samples with Cr(VI). The recoveries were better than 95%. The analytical procedure with limit of detection (LOD) 15 ng g?1 of Cr(VI) was sensitive enough for the determination of exchangeable Cr(VI) in soils. In field soil samples analysed the concentrations of exchangeable Cr(VI) were found to be about 200 ng g?1.  相似文献

The main purpose of this work was to conduct a kinetic study on cell growth and hexavalent chromium [Cr(VI)] removal by Candida sp. FGSFEP in a concentric draft-tube airlift bioreactor. The yeast was batch-cultivated in a 5.2-l airlift bioreactor containing culture medium with an initial Cr(VI) concentration of 1.5 mM. The maximum specific growth rate of Candida sp. FGSFEP in the airlift bioreactor was 0.0244 h?1, which was 71.83% higher than that obtained in flasks. The yeast strain was capable of reducing 1.5 mM Cr(VI) completely and exhibited a high volumetric rate [1.64 mg Cr(VI) l?1 h?1], specific rate [0.95 mg Cr(VI) g?1 biomass h?1] and capacity [44.38 mg Cr(VI) g?1 biomass] of Cr(VI) reduction in the airlift bioreactor, with values higher than those obtained in flasks. Therefore, culture of Candida sp. FGSFEP in a concentric draft-tube airlift bioreactor could be a promising technological alternative for the aerobic treatment of Cr(VI)-contaminated industrial effluents.  相似文献

The objective of this research was to assess the hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) reducing efficiency of sulfur-based inorganic agents including calcium polysulfide (CPS), iron sulfide (FeS), pyrite (FeS2) and sodium sulfide (Na2S) in three soils. An alkaline soil (soil 1), a neutral soil (soil 2) and a slightly acid soil (soil 3) constituted the investigated soils. The soils were spiked with two levels of Cr(VI) (100 and 500 mg Cr(VI) kg?1 soil) and incubated at field capacity (FC) for one month. Then, CPS, FeS, FeS2 and Na2S were added at 0, 5 and 10 g kg?1 and the concentrations of exchangeable Cr(VI) were measured after 0.5, 4, 48 and 168 h in a batch experiment. The pH and organic carbon content of the soils played predominant role in Cr(VI) self-reduction by the soil itself. Complete self-reduction of Cr(VI) from soils 1, 2 and 3 was achieved at maximum Cr(VI) levels of 1, 50 and 500 mg kg?1, respectively. Therefore, the concentration of Cr(VI) should not exceed the given levels in order to ensure that Cr(VI) is not released into the environment from contaminated sites. Moreover, decreasing pH in the alkaline soil caused significant increase of Cr(VI) reducing efficiency. Na2S, CPS and FeS, in contrast to FeS2, were efficient Cr(VI) reducing agents in all three soils. For all added amendments the following order of Cr(VI) reducing capacity was observed: Na2S > CPS > FeS > FeS2 in soil 1, Na2S ? CPS ~ FeS > FeS2 in soil 2 and Na2S ? FeS > CPS ~ FeS2 in soil 3.  相似文献
