The toxic effects and accumulation of the heavy metals, Cd, Cu, and Zn by the sheath forming blue-green alga Chroococcus paris were investigated. All three of the metals were bound rapidly. Approximately 90% of the total amount of the added metal was bound within 1 min. Further significant binding occurred at a slower rate. The maximum metal binding capacity, as determined by filtration studies, was determined to be 53, 120, and 65 mg g?1 dry algal weight for Cd, Cu, and Zn, respectively. Binding curves for the metals followed the Langmuir adsorption isotherm model. The amount of metal bound increased with increasing pH. Metal binding increased significantly when pH was increased from 4 to 7. Nearly all of the metal was found to be rapidly EDTA extractable. Metals were found to be increasingly toxic to growing cultures in the order, Zn, Cd, and Cu. All of the metals studied exhibited toxic effects at concentrations greater than 1.0 mg L?1. The lowest concentrations used which showed detectable toxicity were 0.1 mg L?1 for Cu and >0.4 mg L?1 for Cd and Zn.  相似文献

Toxicity of heavy metals (Zn,Cu, Cd,Pb) to vascular plants   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  
The literature on heavy metal toxicity to vascular plants is reviewed. Special attention is given to forest plant species, especially trees, and effects at low metal concentrations, including growth, physiological, biochemical and cytological responses. Interactions between the metals in toxicity are considered and the role of mycorrhizal infection as well. Of the metals reviewed, Zn is the least toxic. Generally plant growth is affected at 1000 μg Zn L?1 or more in a nutrient solution, though 100 to 200 µg L?1 may give cytological disorders. At concentrations of 100 to 200 μg L?1, Cu and Cd disturb metabolic processes and growth, whereas the phytotoxicity of Pb generally is lower. Although a great variation between plant species, critical leaf tissue concentrations affecting growth in most species being 200 to 300 μg Zn g?1 dry weight, 15 to 20 μg Cu g?1 and 8–12 μg Cd g?1. With our present knowledge it is difficult to propose a limit for toxic concentrations of Zn, Cu, Cd and Pb in soils. Besides time of exposure, the degree of toxicity is influenced by biological availability of the metals and interactions with other metals in the soil, nutritional status, age and mycorrhizal infection of the plant.  相似文献

The monitoring of heavy metal deposition onto soils surrounding old Pb-Zn mines in two locations in the UK has shown that relatively large amounts of Cd, Pb, Zn and, in one case, Cu are entering the soil annually. Small particles of ore minerals in windblown mine tailings were found to be contributing up to 1.46 g m?2 yr?1 of Pb, 1.41 g m?2 yr?1 of Zn and 0.027 g m?2 yr?1 of Cd. However, when these inputs from bulk deposition are compared with the concentrations of the same metals within the soil profiles it is apparent that relatively little long-term accumulation is occurring. Metals are being lost from the soil profiles, probably through leaching. A calculated relative retention parameter gave values that ranged from 0.01 to 0.17 for Cd, 0.11 to 0.19 for Zn, 0.32 to 0.63 for Cu and over 1 for Pb. These relative retention values were found to follow the order of electronegativity of the elements concerned: Pb>Cu>Zn>Cd. Distribution coefficient (Kd) values quantifying the adsorptive capacity of the mine soils for Cd and Pb showed marked differences for the two metals (12 to 69 cm3 g?1 for Cd and 14 to 126 cm3 g?1 for Pb) and may, in part, account for the two to one hundred-fold variation in the relative retention parameter for the different metals within these soils.  相似文献

Soil and water samples were analysed for trace metals and As in two watercourses and 14 sampling plots in a salt marsh polluted by mine wastes in SE Spain. Groundwater levels, soil pH and Eh were measured ‘in situ’ for a 12-month period in each sampling plot, and total calcium carbonate was also determined. Low concentrations of soluble metals (maximum Mn 1.089 mg L?1 and maximum Zn 0.553 mg L?1) were found in the watercourses. However, total metal contents were extremely high in the soils of a zone of the salt marsh (maximum 1,933 mg kg?1 of Mn, 62,280 mg kg?1 of Zn, 16,845 mg kg?1 of Pb, 77 mg kg?1 of Cd, 418 mg kg?1 of Cu and 725 mg kg?1 of As), and soluble metals in the pore water reached 38.7 mg L?1 for Zn, 3.15 mg L?1 for Pb, 48.0 mg L?1 for Mn, 0.61 mg L?1 for Cd and 0.29 mg L?1 for As. Variable concentrations with depth indicate a possible re-mobilisation of the metals, which could be related to spatial and temporal variations of water table level, pH and Eh and to the presence of calcium carbonate. A tendency for the Eh to decrease in the warmest months and to increase in the coldest ones was found, especially, in plots that received water with a high content of dissolved organic carbon. Hence, the existence of nutrient effluent-enriched water may modify the physical–chemical conditions of the soil–water system and influence metal mobility.  相似文献

Abstract

Equilibrium adsorption experiments on zinc (Zn), cadmium (Cd), copper (Cu), and lead (Pb) were conducted in three horizons of two Ultisols and one Oxisol with and without liming, from Viçosa‐MG (Brazil). Equilibrium solutions were applied as a “cocktail”; containing 700 mg L‐1 of Zn, 20 mg L#lb1 of Cd, 200 mg L‐1of Cu, and 300 mg L‐1 of Pb and its dilutions of 1:5 and 1:20. After shaking, the mixture was centrifuged, the supernatant collected and the pH and the concentrations of metals in the mixture were determined. Soil order, soil horizon, and liming had significant effects on the metal adsorption. Some important changes in the adsorption characteristics of the metals, especially in Zn and Cd, were observed due to competition between the different cations present in the solution. Also, desorption of Zn and Cd was observed with an increasing concentration of the solution. The adsorption data for Zn and Cd did not fit the linear, Langmuir, Freundlich, and Temkin isotherm equations for most situations, as these equations do not consider the possibility of a decrease in the amount of metal adsorbed with increasing metal competition for the adsorption sites. Due to the competition with other metals, the equations, which offered the best fit for Zn and Cd, were quadratic polynomial models. On the other hand, for Cu and Pb, the equations, which showed the best fit were linear, Langmuir, and Temkin, for different situations. The reasons for this behavior were related to the strong competitive forces for the adsorption sites presented by these two metals.  相似文献

The bioavailability and plant uptake of heavy metals (HM), as well as finding the most reliable methods for the prediction of availability, continues to be one of the most crucial problems in agricultural and environmental studies. In agricultural soils from two regions in Kosovo, known for its metal pollution, we collected 60 soil and plant samples (wheat, corn, potatoes, and grass). Heavy metals were extracted from soil with aqua regia (pseudototal concentration), NH4OAc‐EDTA (potential bioavailable), and NH4NO3 (mobile fraction), plant samples were digested with HNO3/H2O2 (microwave assisted extraction). The pseudo total content of Cd, Pb, and Zn showed high value in Mitrovice (mean: Cd–2.92, Pb–570.15, and Zn–522.86 mg kg?1), whereas in Drenas region Ni and Cr showed high value with a mean 258.54 and 203.22 mg kg?1. Also, the potential bioavailability and mobile form of these metals were increased in Mitrovice (mean: Cd–1.59, Pb–217.05, Zn–522.86 mg kg?1, respectively Cd–0.17, Pb–0.64, and Zn–15.45 mg kg?1), compared to Drenas. Cd and Pb were elevated in potato tubers (mean Cd–0.48 and Pb–0.85 mg kg?1). The TF was higher for micronutrients (Zn and Cu) than for non‐essential metals (Cd and Pb). Multiple regression analysis showed a good model for prediction of Cd, Pb and Zn content in plant with significance 99.9%, whereas this model was not significant for Cu, Cr, and Ni. Soil pH played a significant role in the content of Cd and Zn in wheat and potato plants. Clay content also showed significance in Cd concentration in wheat and potato plants, while carbon content was significant for Cd in grass plants, as well as for Zn in wheat and grass plants.  相似文献

Thin film A.S.V. was used to study the specific sorption of Cd, Pb and Cu by hydrous oxides (Mn, Fe, and Al) or clay mineral suspensions from acetate buffer solutions containing 10 to 100 μg L?1 of each metal ion. The amount sorbed varied with system pH (range 3 to 9), substrate crystal form, the ratio of adsorbent to absorbate present, and the metal ion involved. Uptake by hydrous Mn(IV) oxide was near total over the whole pH range. With other particulates the pH required for onset of sorption varied with solid phase composition, with uptake subsequently increasing steadily with increasing pH. In general, affinity and relative uptake values followed the sequences Pb > Cu > Cd and Mn(IV) oxides > Fe(III) oxides > A1(OH)3 > clays > iron ores. The solid phases loaded with sorbed metal were equilibrated with a range of extractant solutions used in soil/sediment studies, and the results confirmed that chemi-sorption was the main retention process. Significant release was achieved using extractants that attacked the substrate or formed stable complexes with the metal ion.  相似文献

Changes in the soil chemical environment can be expected to increase the leaching of trace metals bound in soils. In this study the mobility of trace metals was monitored in a column experiment for two contaminated urban soils. Four different treatments were used (i.e. rain, acid rain, salt and bark). Leachates were analysed for pH, dissolved organic carbon (DOC) and for seven trace metals (cadmium (Cd), chromium (Cr), copper (Cu), mercury (Hg), nickel (Ni), lead (Pb) and zinc (Zn)). The salt treatment produced the lowest pH values (between 5 and 6) in the effluent whereas the DOC concentration was largest in the bark treatment (40–140 mg L?1) and smallest in the salt and acid treatments (7–40 mg L?1). Cadmium, Ni and Zn were mainly mobilised in the salt treatment, whereas the bark treatments produced the highest concentrations of Cu and Pb. The concentrations of Cu, Cr, and Hg were strongly correlated with DOC (r 2?=?0.90, 0.91 and 0.96, respectively). A multi-surface geochemical model (SHM-DLM) produced values for metal dissolution that were usually of the correct magnitude. For Pb, however, the model was not successful indicating that the retention of this metal was stronger than assumed in the model. For all metals, the SHM-DLM model predicted that soil organic matter was the most important sorbent, although for Pb and Cr(III) ferrihydrite was also important and accounted for between 15 and 50% of the binding. The results confirm the central role of DOC for the mobilization of Cu, Cr, Hg and Pb in contaminated soils.  相似文献

Studies of Cd and Zn sorption using Na-saturated kaolinite and montmorillonite, and low metal solution concentrations similar to those found in the environment, showed that metal sorption affinity (measured by K d values) decreased markedly with increasing surface metal loading for both layer silicates. For equilibrium solution concentrations <0.1 μmol L?1 for Cd, and < 1 μmol L?1 for Zn, both metals were sorbed with greater affinity by kaolinite than montmorillonite. These results were probably due to the higher proportion of weakly acidic edge sites present on kaolinite surfaces. In the case of Zn there was an affinity reversal for equilibrium solution concentrations > 1 μmol L?1, which was attributed to the permanent charge sites of montmorillonite. Cadmium ions were sorbed, by kaolinite, with greater affinity than Zn for equilibrium solution concentrations between 0.3 to 1.5 μmol L?1. This result was attributed to retention of these metal ions through electrostatic attraction by permanent charge sites present on the kaolinite used in this work. According of these results it seems that metal sorption by these layer silicates involves predominantly edge weak acid sites at lower surface coverages (higher affinity sites), and permanent charge sites at higher metal coverages (lower affinity sites). It was concluded that Cd and Zn sorption by those two layer silicates is greatly influenced by surface metal coverage, and results cannot be extrapolated from low to high surface coverages, and viceversa.  相似文献

Abstract

Laboratory experiments were carried out to evaluate lead (Pb), copper (Cu), zinc (Zn), and cadmium (Cd) sorption‐desorption by three soils of contrasting characteristics. Talamanca (silt loam, montmorillonite, Calcic Haploxeralfs), Mazowe (clay, kaolinite, Rhodic Kandiustalf), and Realejos (sandy silt loam, allophane, Typic Hapludands). A second objective was to study the effect of nitriloacetic acid (NTA) on the sorption process. The Talamanca soil, which had a native pH of 6.4 and presented the highest effective cation exchange capacity (ECEC), sorbed more of each of the metal tested than did the other two soils. When the other two soils were compared metal sorption was also related to pH and ECEC. The very low sorption capacity showed by Realejos may be attributed to the low net surface negative charge density of this soil, arising from its allophanic nature. A common feature of the three soils was the relative strong sorption of both Pb and Cu relative to Cd and Zn with Pb showing the highest sorption levels. The selectivity sequences of metals retention were Pb>Cu>Zn>Cd for Talamanca soil, Pb>Cu>Zn≈Cd for Mazowe, and Pb>Cu>Cd>Zn for Realejos. Metal desorption values were low. The order of metal desorption (Cd≈Zn>Cu>Pb) was the same for the three soils studied. Quantitative differences observed in the extractability of the sorbed metals between the soils (Realejos>Mazowe>Talamanca) indicated that soil properties which enhanced metal sorption contributed at the same time to slow down the backward reaction. The addition of NTA to the soil suspension significantly depressed metal sorption by the three soils investigated. Compared with the free ligand system Pb, Cu, Zn, and Cd sorption in the presence of NTA decreased roughly 50%.  相似文献

The leaching of heavy metals from plant growth medium, admixed with different amounts of compost (prepared from sewage sludge and yard waste) at pH 5, 6 and 7 was determined over a six-month period. Twelve-week old rhododendron cuttings were planted in 2-L containers and rainfall was supplemented with irrigation to supply two centimeters of water per day. Leachates collected over each two to four week period were analyzed for Cd, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb and Zn using atomic spectrometry. The concentrations of Cd, Cu, Ni and Zn in the leachates increased with increasing proportions of compost in the medium and decreased with increasing time of leaching. Decreasing media pH dramatically increased the concentrations of Cd, Ni and Zn in the leachates, but had no effect on the Cu concentrations. For example, as the proportion of the compost in the pH 5 medium increased from 0 to 100 percent, the concentrations of metals (μg L?1) in the leachates collected during the first two weeks increased from 1 to 33 (Cd), 10 to 123 (Cu), 8 to 113 (Ni) and 300 to 24,000 (Zn). Corresponding increases at pH 7 were 0.4 to 0.8 (Cd), 14 to 141 (Cu), 8 to 28 (Ni) and 100 to 400 (Zn) μg L?1. The concentrations of Cr and Pb in the leachates remained below the detection limits regardless of media pH and amounts of compost.  相似文献

A greenhouse experiment was designed to determine the cadmium (Cd) and lead (Pb) distribution and accumulation in parsley plants grown on soil amended with Cd and Pb. The soil was amended with 0, 5, 10 20, 40, 60, 80, and 100 mg Cd kg?1 in the form of cadmium nitrate [Cd(NO3)2] and 0, 5, 10, 50 and 100 mg Pb kg?1 in the form of lead nitrate [Pb(NO3)2]. The main soil properties; concentrations of the diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA)–extractable metals lead (Pb), Cd, copper (Cu), iron (Fe), zinc (Zn), and manganese (Mn) in soil; plant growth; and total contents of metals in shoots and roots were measured. The DTPA-extractable Cd was increased significantly by the addition of Cd. Despite the fact that Pb was not applied, its availability was significantly greater in treatments 40–100 mg Cd kg?1 compared with the control. Fresh biomass was increased significantly in treatments of 5 and 10 mg Cd kg?1 as compared to the control. Further addition of Cd reduced fresh weight but not significantly, although Cd concentration in shoots reached 26.5 mg kg?1. Although Pb was not applied with Cd, its concentration in parsley increased significantly in treatments with 60, 80, and 100 mg Cd g?1 compared with the others. Available soil Pb was increased significantly with Pb levels; nevertheless, the increase was small compared to the additions of Pb to soil. There were no significant differences in shoot and root fresh weights between treatments, although metal contents reached 20.0 mg Pb kg?1 and 16.4 mg Pb kg?1 respectively. Lead accumulation was enhanced by Pb treatments, but the positive effect on its uptake was not relative to the increase of Pb rates. Cadmium was not applied, and yet considerable uptake of Cd by control plants was evident. The interactive effects of Pb and Cd on their availability in soil and plants and their relation to other metals are also discussed.  相似文献

The effects of Hg, As, Pb, Cu, Cd, and Cr (1, 2, and 5 mg L?1 each) on Azolla pinnata R. Br. were analyzed. The treatments (2 and 5 mg L?1) of the heavy metal pollutants decreased Hill activity, chlorophyll, protein and dry wt, and increased tissue permeability over control values. The effects were most pronounced with the treatment of 5 mg L?1. The harmful effects of the metals were, in general, found by the treatments in the order: Cd 〉 Hg 〉 Cu 〉 As 〉 Pb 〉 Cr. There was no significant change in these parameters at 1 mg L?1 of the metals over control. Thus Azolla pinnata shows tolerance to the heavy metals tested up to 1 mg L?1 each.  相似文献

Spatial and seasonal mobilization trends of metals in surface water were evaluated in the US–Mexico San Pedro River (SPR). Water samples were collected at five sampling stations for the analysis of dissolved oxygen, pH, electric conductivity, sulfates, and metals (Cd, Cu, Fe, Mn, Pb, and Zn). Quality of the water was characterized through Ecological Criteria of Water Quality (ECWQ) established in Mexico and Water Quality Criteria (Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)). High total metal concentrations were detected as follows: Fe?>?Cu?>?Mn?>?Zn?>?Pb?>?Cd. Metal concentrations were slightly higher in dry season than in rainy season: Cd (below detection limit (BDL)–0.21 mg L?1), Cu (BDL–13 mg L?1), Fe (0.16–345 mg L?1), Mn (0.12–52 mg L?1), Pb (BDL–0.48 mg L?1), and Zn (0.03–17.8 mg L?1). Low pH and dissolved oxygen values as well as high sulfate content were detected in both seasons. High values of metals (Cd, Cu, Fe, Mn, Pb, Zn) were detected at station E1 representing pollution source, as well as at stations E2 (Cd, Cu, Fe, Mn), E3 (Fe, Mn, Pb), and E4 and E5 (Fe, Mn). Detected concentrations exceeded maximum permissible established in ECWQ and Water Quality Criteria (EPA). Efflorescence salts on sediments in the dry season could increase levels of metals in water column. This study provides valuable information on the potential mobility of metals in surface water of SPR located in an arid environment where transport processes are strongly linked to climate. The information derived from this study should help the regional and national authorities to address present environmental regulations.  相似文献

Batch experiments were performed to study metal sorption by pine bark and algae-treated bark. The biosorption of copper (Cu), lead (Pb), zinc (Zn), cadmium (Cd), cobalt (Co), and nickel (Ni) in synthetic multimetal aqueous solutions was studied as a function of metal content in solution, and amount and size of bark particles used for sorption. Influence of water hardness (Ca2+ only was tested) on the metal sorption process was also evaluated. Metal uptake from solutions with high heavy metal content (i.e. 10× the limit for leachate from landfills) was found to be independent of Ca2+ concentration. At low metal content in solution (i.e. 1× the limit for leachate from landfills), uptake of Cu, Zn, Ni, and Cd decreased with increasing Ca2+ content in water. Microalgae-treated bark was found to increase the metal sorption efficiency. Air-drying of bark-entrapped algae was shown to be the best method for sorbent drying. In general, the green algae, Chlorella sp. and Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata showed the best results in metal uptake. Sorption of Co, Zn, Ni, and Cd from solution with high levels of both heavy metals and calcium increased by almost 50% with algae treatment of bark was applied. At low levels of metals and calcium content, 100% uptake of Cu and Pb in water was observed. Uptake of other metals from solution with low metal and Ca content was relatively high (50–60%). Low pH (pH 3.0) had no influence on metal sorption from solutions with high metal content. For solutions with low metal content a decrease of metal uptake by 10–15% was observed for all the metals but Pb. Thus, the treatment of bark with microalgae was successful and influenced positively the uptake capacity of the bark.  相似文献

The concentrations of Hg, Cu, Pb, Cd, and Zn accumulated by regional macrophytes were investigated in three tropical wetlands in Colombia. The studied wetlands presented different degrees of metal contamination. Cu and Zn presented the highest concentrations in sediment. Metal accumulation by plants differed among species, sites, and tissues. Metals accumulated in macrophytes were mostly accumulated in root tissues, suggesting an exclusion strategy for metal tolerance. An exception was Hg, which was accumulated mainly in leaves. The ranges of mean metal concentrations were 0.035?C0.953 mg g?1 Hg, 6.5?C250.3 mg g?1 Cu, 0.059?C0.245 mg g?1 Pb, 0.004?C0.066 mg g?1 Cd, and 31.8?363.1 mg g?1 Zn in roots and 0.033?C0.888 mg g?1 Hg, 2.2?C70.7 mg g?1 Cu, 0.005?C0.086 mg g?1 Pb, 0.001?C0.03 mg g?1 Cd, and 12.6?C140.4 mg g?1 Zn in leaves. The scarce correlations registered between metal concentration in sediment and plant tissues indicate that metal concentrations in plants depend on several factors rather than on sediment concentration only. However, when Cu and Zn sediment concentrations increased, these metal concentrations in tissues also increased in Eichhornia crassipes, Ludwigia helminthorriza, and Polygonum punctatum. These species could be proposed as Cu and Zn phytoremediators. Even though macrophytes are important metal accumulators in wetlands, sediment is the main metal compartment due to the fact that its total mass is greater than the corresponding plant biomass in a given area.  相似文献

Land treatment is increasingly being utilized as a method of waste disposal for both sewage effluent and sludges. While there has been considerable attention directed toward the fate of metallic constituents of sewage sludges, there have been fewer studies of the fate and mobility of metals appled to soils in sewage effluent. This study was undertaken utilizing secondarily treated sewage effluent amended to contain less than 1 mg l?1 each of Cd, Cu, Ni, Pb, and Zn. The effluent was applied weekly for a period of 1 yr on large undisturbed monoliths of four diverse soils enclosed in lysimeters and sprigged to common bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon L.). Soil samples were collected periodically and extracted with DTPA to measure plant available metals. Vegetation was harvested, weighed, subsampled and analyzed for total metal content. Total plant uptake of Cd, Cu, Pb, and Ni during the year was less than 1% of that applied. Vegetative uptake of Zn was as high as 2%. Metal uptake was greatest in the soil with the lowest initial pH. Heavy metal concentrations in plant tissue exhibited a cyclic trend. A similar increasing cyclic trend was evident in the DTPA extractable metals in the surface 0 to 12.5 cm of the treated soils. Decreases in plant and DTPA extractable metals occurred when the soils dried, allowing O2 to enter. Vegetative concentrations of Cd, Cu, and Ni exceeded normal ranges of 0.2 to 0.8, 4 to 15, and 1.0 mg kg?1, respectively, for vegetation while Pb and Zn were near normal. Only Cd concentration of vegetation posed a threat to grazing animals.  相似文献

Granular activated carbon (GAC), granular activated alumina (GAA) and a ferric chloride solution (FCS) were tested for the treatment of leachate contaminated by heavy metals. The leachate was collected following the remedation of soils using weak organic acids and/or their salts, EDTA and DTPA. Only GAC was found to effectively remove heavy metals (Cd, Cu, Cr, Hg, Mn, Pb and Zn as chelates) from the leachate. At optimum pH ranging from 5.4 to 6.9, 97% of Hg was removed while at optimum pH ranging from 6.9 to 7.7, 78 to 96% of Cd, Cu, Mn, Pb and Zn were removed. Some 77% of the Cr was removed at optimum pH of 5.4. Adsorption rate constant and Langmuir adsorption capacity of GAC were found to be 0.01 min?1 and 19 mg metal chelate g?1 of GAC, respectively. Freundlich constants, k and n were found to be 21 mg g?1 and 2.778, respectively. The brown color of the leachate turned colorless after GAC treatment.

Soil, aquatic biota (moss: Brachythecium rivulare; aquatic macrophytes: Juncus effusus, Potamogeton crispus; fish: Salmo trutta fario, Anguilla anguilla, Phoxinus phoxinus, Chelon labrosus) and sediment samples from the Urumea river valley were analysed for metals by acid digestion and atomic absorption spectroscopy. The sediments show the presence of metal pollution (Cd: 2.5–24 mg kg-1; Pb: 125–1,150 mg kg-1; Zn: 125–2,500 mg kg-1) because mining and industrial wastes. A selective retention of dense minerals in dam sediments contributes to the load of metal, but interstitial water analysis (Cd: <0.02–0.1 mg L-1; Pb: 0.3–1.0 mg L-1; Zn: <0.05–0.6 mg L-1) shows that precipitation equilibrium controls their mobilisation. Biota samples show evidence of metal accumulation, moss reaching 1,100 mg kg-1 in lead and 6,800 mg kg-1 in zinc. Soil from the valley is polluted by both, river carried material and industrial sources (Cd: 1.0–4.0 mg kg-1; Pb: 26–1,120 mg kg-1; Zn: 105–1,390 mg kg-1/math>), but they are used, indistinctly, for farming and pasture.  相似文献

Slow immobilization of trace metals in soil, termed ‘fixation’, affects their natural attenuation but it is still unclear which reactions occur. Twenty‐eight soils were selected to assess the role of Fe oxides and carbonates on fixation of Cu, Cd, Zn and Ni. Soils included samples from 2 toposequences (Vietnam, Spain) and 13 European topsoils with different soil characteristics (pH 3.4–7.7). Samples were amended with 250 mg Zn kg−1, 100 mg Cu kg−1, 80 mg Ni kg−1 and 2.5 mg Cd kg−1 as metal salts and incubated for 850 days. Fixation was measured as the increase of the fraction of added metals that were not isotopically exchangeable. Fixation increased with time and was, averaged over all the soils, 43% (Cu), 41% (Zn), 41% (Ni) and 28% (Cd) after 850 days. Metal fixation within samples from each toposequence was generally positively related to total Fe oxide concentration (Fed) for Zn, Ni and Cd. However, the fixation of Cd, Zn and Ni was mainly explained by pH and not by Fed when considering all soils. Fixation of Zn and Cd in soils with pH >7.0 increased with increasing concentrations of carbonates at initial ageing times. Fixed fractions of Zn, Ni and Cd were significantly released when experimentally removing 50% of carbonates by acidification. Fixation of Cu was most poorly related to soil properties. Our data suggest that fixation of Cd, Zn and Ni is related to a pH‐dependent diffusion into oxides and that of Cd and Zn also to diffusion and/or coprecipitation in carbonates. Fixation of Ni at neutral pH may also be related to stabilization of precipitates that form readily in soil.  相似文献
