土壤淋洗技术具有修复效率高、修复彻底、污染土壤减量化等特点,但目前土壤淋洗的药剂成本相对较高,且淋洗后的细粒土壤仍需固化、稳定化处理,限制了淋洗技术大规模的推广应用。本研究以重庆市某Cr(VI)污染场地细粒土壤为对象,探究了Cr(VI)污染细粒土壤化学淋洗修复的效果与经济可行性。结果表明:除EDTA外,随着草酸、柠檬酸、醋酸和盐酸浓度的增加,土壤中Cr(VI)的去除率均逐渐增加,且草酸和柠檬酸复配淋洗效果最佳;液固比5∶1～10∶1时淋洗效果和稳定性最佳,液固比大于10∶1或低于5∶1淋洗效果和稳定性降低。淋洗时间越长,土壤中Cr(VI)的去除效果越好,土壤中Cr(VI)的浸出浓度越低;以草酸和柠檬酸作为复配淋洗剂,在液固比5∶1,淋洗45 min情况下,土壤中Cr(VI)去除率为62.73%,Cr(VI)的浸出浓度为0.64 mg·L~(-1),低于垃圾填埋场Cr(VI)浸出标准1.5 mg·L~(-1),且Cr(VI)污染细粒土壤淋洗药剂成本为300元·t~(-1)土,具备工程应用的经济可行性。

Soil flushing of a sandy loam contaminated with Pb(II), PbS4 (s), PbCO3 (3), or Pb‐Naphthalene: Column results

Column‐scale oil flushing of a sandy loam contaminated with either Pb(II) (500 mg/kg Pb), PbSO₄ (10,000 mg/kg Pb), PbCO₃ (10,000 mg/kg Pb), or Pb‐naphthalene (400 mg/kg Pb, 333 mg/kg naphthalene) was investigated. HCl (0.1 N), EDTA (0.01 M), and CaCl₂ (1.0 M) were selected as the soil‐flushing solutions based on soil‐washing experiments. For the Pb‐only tests, Pb removal efficiencies were 85, 100, and 78% for HCl, EDTA, and CaCl₂, respectively. For PbSO₄ (s), Pb removal efficiencies were 32, 100, and 96% for HCl, EDTA, and CaCl₂, respectively, and for PbCO₃ were 97, 100, and 14% for HCl, EDTA, and CaCl₂, respectively. Larger amounts of flushing solutions were required for the remediation of PbSO₄‐and PbCO₃‐contaminated soils compared with the Pb‐only tests, most likely because of slower dissolution kinetics and the neutralization of HCl by CO₃ ^‐2 For Pb‐naphthalene, Pb removal efficiencies were 78 and 72% for HCl and EDTA, respectively, which compared well with soil‐washing results but were less than those observed in Pb‐only column studies.     

Electronic (EK) remediation of a contaminated soil at several Pb concentrations and applied voltages

The in situ remediation of a lead‐contaminated silt loam by electrokinetic (EK) soil flushing was studied. Two initial soil Pb concentrations (150 and 1000 mg/kg of Pb) and applied voltages (30 and 60 V) were investigated. The EK soil flushing process was less efficient for the 150 mg/kg of Pb soils despite these tests being operated for longer durations, having larger EO flows and energy inputs, and lower soil pHs. The decrease in effectiveness was attributed to a larger average metal‐soil binding energy for the lower contaminated soil. Increasing the voltage increased the EO flow, current, energy input (kW‐hr/kg of soil), and provided a more evolved low pH front, resulting in more soil being remediated. There appeared to be a correlation between the amount of EO flow and the desorption and transport of soil‐bound lead. Because complete soil remediation did not occur in any of the tests, the final energy input per kilogram of soil could not be calculated.     

A review on remediation technologies for nickel-contaminated soil

Abstract

With the rapid pace of industrialization and urbanization, the environmental safety of soil is a worldwide concern. In China alone, one-fifth of the arable land is reported to be contaminated with heavy metals including nickel. In this review, current research on nickel remediation, specifically the various remediation technologies including physical and chemical remediation methods, such as immobilization, soil washing, encapsulation, soil replacement, and electrokinetic methods; phytoremediation; and bioremediation, is summarized. Further, the mechanisms underlying the presented remediation technologies, along with their advantages and disadvantages, are discussed. The lacunae in available technologies for nickel remediation are also briefly discussed. The review concludes with a scheme for successful soil remediation.     

Microemulsion‐mediated removal of residual gasoline from soil columns

In situ pumping of micellular solutions of surfactant (S) and cosurfactant (CoS) in water (W) through contaminated soils or aquifers offers potential for enhanced remediation of residual nonaqueous‐phase liquids (NAPLs). Extremely low interfacial tension generated between a W/S/CoS mixture and residual NAPL in soil pores may initially mobilize the NAPL, which is then transported temporarily as a separate phase by immiscible displacement. The NAPL is then solubilized by micro‐emulsification as the W/S/CoS mixture forms a stable W/S/CoS/NAPL micro‐emulsion that undergoes miscible displacement through the pore space. This remediation technique was tested under laboratory conditions by sequentially flushing a saline solution and a W/S/CoS mixture through columns of a sandy soil recently contaminated with residual leaded gasoline (LG). Prior to the flushings, the soil was initially contaminated by applying a W/S/CoS/LG microemulsion. A simple conceptual transport model with kinetic clogging of soil pores adequately described breakthrough curves for gasoline and organolead in the soil columns.     

Soil Washing Enhanced by Humic Substances and Biodegradable Chelating Agents

Industrial timber treatment sites have resulted in widespread soil contamination by Cu, Cr, and As, presenting potential long-term liability and associated risks to human health and the environment. This study evaluated the roles of natural humic substances (lignite-derived humic substances, standard and commercially available humic acids) and biodegradable chelating agents (ethylenediamine-N,N-disuccinic acid (EDDS) and glutamic-N,N-diacetic acid (GLDA)) for soil washing. Batch kinetic experiments revealed that humic substances promoted Cu extraction at pH 8, but they were significantly adsorbed on the soil at pH 4, possibly posing impediment to soil remediation. The metal extraction by EDDS and GLDA was comparable to that of EDTA (ethylenediamine-tetraacetic acid), and it was more effective at pH 4 than pH 8, probably due to acidic dissolution of metal precipitates and oxides. Metal distribution analysis indicated that the carbonate fraction of Cu and the oxide fraction of As and Cr were mainly extracted, while the exchangeable fraction of Cu increased. The residual leachability tests showed that humic substances reduced the Cu and As leachability but the reduction was insufficient. In contrast, EDDS was able to reduce the leachate concentrations of Cu and As to below 5 mg L^?1, meeting the waste acceptance criteria for landfill disposal. Nevertheless, soil washing methods and remediation strategy may need further modifications to facilitate site restoration and promote soil recycling.     

Environmental impact and bioremediation of seleniferous soils and sediments

Selenium concentrations in the soil environment are directly linked to its transfer in the food chain, eventually causing either deficiency or toxicity associated with several physiological dysfunctions in animals and humans. Selenium bioavailability depends on its speciation in the soil environment, which is mainly influenced by the prevailing pH, redox potential, and organic matter content of the soil. The selenium cycle in the environment is primarily mediated through chemical and biological selenium transformations. Interactions of selenium with microorganisms and plants in the soil environment have been studied in order to understand the underlying interplay of selenium conversions and to develop environmental technologies for efficient bioremediation of seleniferous soils. In situ approaches such as phytoremediation, soil amendment with organic matter and biovolatilization are promising for remediation of seleniferous soils. Ex situ remediation of contaminated soils by soil washing with benign leaching agents is widely considered for removing heavy metal pollutants. However, it has not been applied until now for remediation of seleniferous soils. Washing of seleniferous soils with benign leaching agents and further treatment of Se-bearing leachates in bioreactors through microbial reduction will be advantageous as it is aimed at removal as well as recovery of selenium for potential re-use for agricultural and industrial applications. This review summarizes the impact of selenium deficiency and toxicity on ecosystems in selenium deficient and seleniferous regions across the globe, and recent research in the field of bioremediation of seleniferous soils.     

重金属污染土壤稳定/固化修复技术研究进展

修复重金属污染土壤一直是国际上的难点和热点研究课题.目前常用的污染场地修复技术主要包括挖掘、稳定/固化(solidification/stabilization,S/S)、化学淋洗、气提、热处理、生物修复等.本文在参考美国环境保护署(EPA)、英国环境署的S/S技术规范、国内外发明专利基础上,对S/S的概念、国内外发展现状及今后的发展方向进行了系统论述.固定化技术通过把污染物囊封入惰性基材中,或在污染物外面加上低渗透性的材料,来减少污染物暴露的淋滤面积以达到限制污染物迁移的目的.稳定化技术是从改变污染物的有效性出发,将污染物转化为不易溶解、迁移能力或毒性更小的形式.S/S技术包括:水泥固化、石灰火山灰固化、塑性材料包容固化、玻璃化技术、药剂稳定化.在稳定化技术中,加入药剂的目的是改变土壤的物理、化学性质,通过pH控制技术、氧化还原电势技术、沉淀技术、吸附技术、离子交换技术等改变重金属在土壤中的存在状态,从而降低其生物有效性和迁移性.本文还论述了S/S修复效果评价方法,并指出需加强S/S技术中的分子键合技术、土聚合物以及我国的S/S技术导则制定等工作.     

Remediation of Arsenic-Contaminated Soil Using Alkaline Extractable Organic Carbon Solution Prepared from Wine-Processing Waste Sludge

Past studies have shown that dissolved organic carbon (DOC) washing can effectively remove heavy metals from contaminated soil. In this study, we used alkaline DOC solutions for remediation of arsenic (As)-contaminated soil (with an initial As concentration in the topsoil of 390 mg kg^?1). The removal of As and the change in soil nutrients during DOC washing were studied for 60 min at pH 10 with a 60:1 liquid/soil ratio (v/m). Approximately 88% of As was removed by washing the soil twice using a 3000 mg L^?1 DOC solution at 25°C. Following this treatment, the pH of the soil had increased from 5.6 to 9.2; organic carbon content had increased from 3.5% to 4.1%; cation exchange capacity, ammonium-N, and available phosphorus had increased to 2.3, 1.4, and 6.6 times their original levels, respectively; and exchangeable K, Na, Ca, and Mg had increased to 91, 6.1, 4.2, and 2.2 times their original levels, respectively. A sequential extraction investigation revealed that residual As and easily exchangeable As in the fraction were initially 10.2% and 9.2%, respectively, but that the former became the maximum remainder (64%) after the ultimate DOC washing.     

Effects of cyclodextrins, humic substances, and rhamnolipids on the washing of a historically contaminated soil and on the aerobic bioremediation of the resulting effluents

Nontoxic and biodegradable pollutant-mobilizing agents, instead of chemical surfactants, were tested in the washing of an actual-site chloroaromatic-contaminated soil. A soil historically contaminated by chlorinated anilines and benzenes, thiophenes and several polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons was subjected to washing by suspending it (15% w/v) in water or in water with 1.0% (w/v) beta-clodextrin (beta-CD), hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin (HP-beta-CD), rhamnolipid (RL), dissolved humic substances (HS), or Triton X-100 (TX) in shaken batch reactors for 24 hr. The resulting wastewaters were amended with nutrients and treated aerobically in shaken reactors for 65 days. The biogenic agents markedly enhanced (by 237%, beta-CD; 265%, HP-beta-CD; 400%, RL; 566%, HS) the capability of water of eluting organic pollutants from the soil. TX enhanced the overall pollutant removal by about 660%; however, a lower depletion of the initial soil ecotoxicity, along with a more extensive impact on the soil organic matter, was observed. Furthermore, TX adversely affected the bioremediation of the resulting effluent by apparently inducing a premature decrease of specialized bacterial biomass. By contrast, the biogenic agents, and in particular HS and RL, sustained the biodegradation and dechlorination of pollutants by apparently enhancing the availability of specialized bacteria in the reactors. Thus, the biogenic agents proposed here seem to be promising nontoxic and nonaggressive soil washing agents for the integrated physicochemical (washing) and biological (aerobic posttreatment) restoration of poorly bioremediable (chloro) organics-contaminated soils.
