This article describes the removal of heavy metals from contaminated clayey soils by soil washing using various extractants. Two clayey soils, kaolin, a low buffering soil with pH of 5, and glacial till, a high buffering soil with pH of 8, were used to represent various soil conditions. These soils were spiked with chromium (Cr), nickel (Ni), and cadmium (Cd) to simulate improper disposal of typical electroplating waste constituents. The following extracting solutions were investigated for the removal of heavy metals from the soils: deionized water, distilled water, and tap water; acetic acid and phosphoric acid; chelating agents ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) and citric acid; and the oxidizing agents potassium permanganate and hydrogen peroxide. The effect of extractant concentration on removal of heavy metals was also investigated. Complete removal of Cr was achieved using 0.1?M potassium permanganate for kaolin, while a maximum of 54% was removed from glacial till. A maximum Ni removal of 80% was achieved using tapwater for kaolin, while a maximum removal of 48 to 52% was achieved using either 1?M acetic acid or 0.1?M citric acid for glacial till. A maximum Cd removal of 50% was achieved using any of the extractants for kaolin, while a maximum removal of 45 to 48% was obtained using either acids or chelating agents for glacial till. Overall, this study showed that complete removal of Cr, Ni, and Cd from clayey soils is difficult to achieve using the soil-washing process, and also the use of one extractant may not be effective in removing all metals. A sequential extraction using different extractants may be needed for the removal of multiple metal contaminants from clayey soils.  相似文献

In this study, a combined system of soil washing and electrodeposition was designed to remove Pb (16381±643 mg/kg) and Cd (34347±1310 mg/kg) from contaminated soil. 0.05 M Na2EDTA was used as a chelating agent for the remediation of soil, taken from the nearby city Kayseri, Turkey. As a result of the batch extraction tests, maximum removals were determined as; at the 20:1 liquid: soil ratio for Pb is 60.7%, for Cd at the 30:1 liquid: soil ratio is 67.4%. An electrochemical treatment was applied to the waste washing solution which appeared to be the second pollutant after the Na2EDTA extraction from the soil. With extraction tests of Pb and Cd, being transformed from the solid phase to the liquid phase. The electrochemical treatment (electrodeposition), performed in three different potential (6 V, 8 V and 10 V) and maximum removal efficiencies, were found 99.7% and 80.3% at 10 V for Pb and Cd, respectively.

Speciation tests (BCR) were carried out, both before and after the soil washing process, to evaluate the redistribution of metal fraction in the soil. The fraction, associated with the organic substance, was found as 10.67% for Pb and 1.81% for Cd. The metal bioavailability factor increased after soil washing, which indicates that EDTA could enhance the mobility of Pb and Cd.  相似文献

The potential for cadmium (Cd) removal from contaminated soil by two species—marigold (Tagetes erecta L.) and Guinea grass (Panicum maximum)—was investigated in pot culture experiments in a greenhouse in triplicate. The concentration of Cd was varied from 50 to 200 mg kg?1 and the pH was varied from 5.0 to 7.5 to investigate the effect of pH on Cd uptake. The results showed that total biomass of Guinea grass was around nine and seven times higher than that of marigold for Cd treatments of 50 and 100 mg kg?1 at pH 5.0, respectively. Total cadmium uptake at Cd treatments of 50 and 100 mg kg?1 at pH 5.0 by Guinea grass was 19.28 ± 3.14 and 36.06 ± 4.28 mg kg?1, respectively, and for marigold was 15.66 ± 4.17 and 20.38 ± 3.24 mg kg?1, respectively. The total Cd uptake by Guinea grass was 1.23 and 1.77 higher than that of marigold at Cd treatments of 50 and 100 mg kg?1, respectively, at pH 5.0 due to higher biomass. The maximum Cd uptake by marigold and Guinea grass occurred at pH 5.0 at Cd treatment of 100 mg kg?1. The results clearly show that the two species behave very differently for Cd uptake. Guinea grass is easy to grow, drought tolerant and, due to its higher biomass, it can be used for remediation of Cd-contaminated soil.  相似文献

The effect of cadmium (CdCl2) on galactose and phenylalanine uptake by rat everted intestinal rings has been studied. The rings were preincubated (15 min) and incubated (5 min) in the presence of Cd. Galactose uptake (from 0.5 mM to 10 mM) was inhibited by 0.5 mM Cd about 25%. Only the phlorizin-dependent galactose transport was affected by cadmium, being a non-competitive type inhibition. A 15 min washing with saline solution significantly reduced the cadmium induced inhibition, which was practically reversed by washing with 5 mM EDTA. The uptake of 0.5 mM phenylalanine was not affected by 0.5 mM Cd but it was depressed by 1 mM Cd. Such inhibition was exerted on the sodium-dependent phenylaline transport. Washing with 5 mM EDTA diminished only slightly the inhibition of the transport by cadmium. It is suggested that the inhibition of intestinal transport of galactose and phenylalanine by cadmium may be due to its reversible interaction with metal-binding ligands, possibly sulfhydryl groups, related to the luminal transport systems.  相似文献

This study characterizes cadmium (Cd) uptake by the waterlily Nymphaea aurora, (Nymphaeaceae) in two systems: a model hydroponic Cd solution and heavily polluted sludge from two sites in Israel. The uptake of Cd from hydroponic solution resulted in Cd storage in petioles and laminae of Nymphaea, as well as in the roots. The pH of the solution affected Cd solubility and availability, with pH 5.5 yielding maximum Cd content in the plant (140 mg Cd per g DW). Cd uptake was reduced by the addition of EDTA to the hydroponic growth medium, although EDTA enhanced heavy metal uptake by terrestrial plants. Nymphaea efficiently reduced the concentration of Cd in heavy metal polluted urban and industrial sludge and the amount of Cd uptake was enhanced by the addition of KCl to the sludge and by adjustment of the pH to 5.5. The inherent growth patterns of Nymphaea plants allowed Cd uptake by the shoot and root, and resulted in maximum contact between the various plant parts and the growth media. Thus, Nymphaea has potential as an optimal, highly effective phytoremediation tool for the removal of Cd from polluted waste sources.  相似文献

Oscillatoria sp. H1 (Cyanobacteria, microalgae) isolated from Mogan Lake was used for the removal of cadmium ions from aqueous solutions as its dry biomass, alive and heat-inactivated immobilized form on Ca-alginate. Particularly, the effect of physicochemical parameters like pH, initial concentration and contact time were investigated. The sorption of Cd(II) ions on the sorbent used was examined for the cadmium concentrations within the range of 25-250 mg/L. The biosorption of Cd(II) increased as the initial concentration of Cd(II) ions increased in the medium up to 100 mg/L. Maximum biosorption capacities for plain alginate beads, dry biomass, immobilized live Oscillatoria sp. H1 and immobilized heat-inactivated Oscillatoria sp. H1 were 21.2, 30.1, 32.2 and 27.5 mg/g, respectively. Biosorption equilibrium was established in about 1 h for the biosorption processes. The biosorption was well described by Langmuir and Freundlich adsorption isotherms. Maximum adsorption was observed at pH 6.0. The alginate-algae beads could be regenerated using 50 mL of 0.1 mol/L HCl solution with about 85% recovery.  相似文献

Crop contamination with cadmium is a function of soil contamination. Here we study the applicability of the soil solution bioavailability hypothesis to Cd: that is, whether uptake of Cd was more directly related to its concentration or activity in the soil solution than in the soil solid phase. Experimental data from past soil-crop surveys for Cd were used to test this hypothesis. It was also investigated whether pH-dependent desorption of cadmium would be an important mechanisms in affecting cadmium activity and thus uptake. To do so we calculated the correlation between the Cd transfer factor (ratio between Cd level in plant dry material and Cd level in the topsoil) and either the soil pH, or the calculated soil solution Cd concentrations. There was no correlation between the Cd contents of the soil and of the edible parts of leafy plants (endive, spinach and lettuce). There was a strong negative correlation between soil pH and the log transfer factor for Cd at pH 4.5–7.2 and thus plant content. There also was a negative correlation between soil pH and calculated cadmium concentrations in the soil solution. For spinach grown on soils with pH > 7.2 the transfer factor increased, which is tentatively ascribed to cadmium mobilization by dissolved organic matter. The soil solution hypothesis should be further tested by pot and field trials. Special attention should be paid to the role of pH and dissolved organic matter. A C Borstlap Section editor  相似文献

The cadmium removing capacity of a biosorbent Calotropis procera, a perennial wild plant, is reported here. The biomass was found to possess high uptake capacity of Cd(II). Adsorption was pH dependent and the maximum removal was obtained at two different pH i.e. pH 5.0 and 8.0. Maximum biosorption capacity in batch and column mode was found to be 40 and 50.5 mg/g. The adsorption equilibrium (> or =90% removal) was attained within 5 min irrespective of the cadmium ion concentration. Interfering ions viz. Zn(II), As(III), Fe(II), Ni(II) interfered only when their concentration was higher than the equimolar ratio. The Freundlich isotherm best explained the adsorption, yet the monolayer adsorption was also noted at lower concentrations of Cd(II). The FTIR analysis indicates the involvement of hydroxyl (-OH), alkanes (-CH), nitrite (-NO(2)), and carboxyl group (-COO) chelates in metal binding. The complete desorption of the cadmium was achieved by 0.1M H(2)SO(4) and 0.1M HCl. The C. procera based Cd(II) removal technology appears feasible.  相似文献

Biosorption technique was used for removal of cadmium under different conditions from water environment using a biosorbent, Volveriella volvaceas, locally growing fruit bodies of mushroom. Effects of different parameters like pH, sorbent concentration, ionic strength on the removal efficiency of cadmium by V. volvacea were carried out in continuation with adsorption kinetics and equilibrium isotherm experiments. From the kinetics studies it was found that nearly 95% of the total cadmium removal was achieved from cadmium spiked distilled water within first 15 minutes. Isotherm data was best fitted to linearised Langmuir equation and the sorption capacity was found to be varying from 9.13 to 9.33 mg/g for different sizes of sorbent. The uptake of cadmium(II) is a function of pH of the solution and increases with the increasing pH. Increasing ionic strength and the presence of soluble complexing agents such as ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA) decrease the sorption of cadmium (II). The presence of other diavalent cations like calcium and magnesium impedes the uptake of cadmium (II). The presence of chloride ion has no significant effect on cadmium (II) removal. The spent biosorbent can effectively be regenerated with acid and can then be reused.The present work was carried out by the financial support in terms of fellowship under the cultural exchange programme of the Indo-Bangladesh government.

This study investigated the effects of biosurfactant produced by a mangrove isolate on a heavy metal spiked soil remediation using two different methods of biosurfactant addition (pretreatment and direct application) at different concentrations (0.5%–5%) for 10 days employing column and batch method of washings. The FT-IR spectral and biochemical analysis confirmed the chemical nature of biosurfactant as a glycolipid. Pre-addition of biosurfactant at 0.5% concentrations and further incubation for a month resulted in better chromium removal than the direct biosurfactant washing method. A maximum recovery of lead (99.77%), nickel (98.23%), copper (99.62%), and cadmium (99.71%) were achieved with column washing method at 1% biosurfactant concentration. Release of 26% soluble fractions of nickel (pre-addition with biosurfactant) and 40% copper (direct application) were achieved by column washing method at 1.0% concentration of biosurfactant. A total of 0.034 mg/10 g of lead, 0.157 mg/10 g of nickel, 0.022 mg/10 g of copper, 0.025 mg/10 g of cadmium, and 0.538 mg/10 g of chromium were found to remain in the spiked soil after column washing with 1.0% biosurfactant solution. However, pre-addition of 0.5% biosurfactant treatment helps in maximum removal of chromium metal leaving a residual concentration of 0.426 mg/10 g of soil, suggesting effective removal at very low concentration. The average extraction concentration of metals in batch washings was between 93–100%, irrespective of the concentration of biosurfactant studied. In this study, the percentage removal of copper, cadmium, chromium, nickel, and lead from spiked soils by column washing was comparatively lower than batch washing.  相似文献

This paper describes the experimental remediation of the Dead Sea mud and the quantitative determination of some heavy metals. Herein, two chelating agents were employed as extracting aqueous solution: ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) and citric acid. The study focused on the main known heavy metals that were reported previously to be in the Dead Sea mud, which are Co, Ni, Pb, Zn, and Cr. Findings had indicated that citric acid was efficient in the removal of the aforementioned heavy metals. Physicochemical parameters that were expected to affect the removal of metals in the Dead Sea mud were optimized. Those parameters were the chelating agent concentration, mixing time and speed, type of washing water, temperature, and pH. The results showed that the best removal of heavy metals from Dead Sea mud can be achieved under optimum citric acid concentration, 1.5 g/50 mL for treatment of 10 g mud. Optimum mixing speed and time were found to be 800 rpm and 1 hr, respectively. Regarding washing water, it was found that the use of the same water for repeated washing provided better removal percentages. pH values and temperature had effect on removal percentages of the heavy metals from mud. However, working at pH 7 and room temperature would provide convenient results for heavy metal removal.  相似文献

A cadmium(II)-resistant fungus, strain F2, isolated from blende soil was identified as Phoma sp. by morphological study and internal transcribed spacer sequencing. This strain could accumulate 280 mg of Cd(II)/g dry weight mycelium. In liquid medium containing 163.8 mg Cd(II)/L, 96% of Cd(II) was removed by the actively growing mycelium. In addition, both oven-dried and lyophilized mycelium could effectively adsorb Cd(II). There were removed 91% and 46.2% of Cd(II) from 51.6 mg Cd(II)/L solution by lyophilized biomass and oven-dried biomass respectively. Transmission electron microscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray analysis showed the accumulation of Cd(II) in the mycelium cell walls. Our results demonstrated that Phoma sp. F2 was a hyperaccumulator for the removal of Cd(II) from contaminated soil and water.  相似文献

Enhanced phytoextraction uses soil chelators to increase the bioavailability of heavy metals. This study tested the effectiveness of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) and citric acid in enhancing cadmium (Cd) phytoextraction and their effects on the growth, yield, and ionic uptake of maize (Zea mays). Maize seeds of two cultivars were sown in pots treated with 15 (Cd15) or 30 mg Cd kg?1 soil (Cd30). EDTA and citric acid at 0.5 g kg?1 each were applied 2 weeks after germination. Results demonstrated that the growth, yield per plant, and total grain weight were reduced by exposure to Cd. EDTA increased the uptake of Cd in shoots, roots, and grains of both maize varieties. Citric acid did not enhance the uptake of Cd, rather it ameliorated the toxicity of Cd, as shown by increased shoot and root length and biomass. Cadmium toxicity reduced the number of grains, rather than the grain size. The maize cultivar Sahiwal-2002 extracted 1.6% and 3.6% of Cd from soil in both Cd+ EDTA treatments. Hence, our study implies that maize can be used to successfully phytoremediate Cd from soil using EDTA, without reducing plant biomass or yield.  相似文献

The roles of gibberellic acid (GA3) and ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) in phytoremediation of cadmium (Cd)-contaminated soil by Parthenium hysterophorus plant was investigated. GA3 (10?9, 10?7, and 10?5M) was applied as a foliar spray. EDTA was added to soil in a single dose (160 mg/kg soil) and split doses (40 mg/kg soil, four split doses). GA3 and EDTA were used separately and in various combinations. P. hysterophorus was selected due to its fast growth and unpalatable nature to herbivores to reduce the entrance of metal into the food chain. The Cd phytoextraction potential of the P. hysterophorus plant was evaluated for the first time. Cd significantly reduced plant growth and dry biomass (DBM). GA3 alone increased the plant growth and biomass in Cd-contaminated soil, whereas EDTA reduced it. GA3 in combination with EDTA significantly increased the growth and biomass. The highest significant DBM was found in treatment T3 (10?5M GA3). All treatments of GA3 or EDTA significantly enhanced the plant Cd uptake and accumulation compared with control (C1). The highest significant root and stem Cd concentrations were found in the combination treatment T11 (GA3 10?5M + EDTA split doses), whereas in leaves it was found in the EDTA treatments. Cd concentration in plant parts increased in the order of stem < leaves < roots. The combination treatment T9 (GA3 10?7M + EDTA split doses) showed the significantly highest total Cd accumulation (8 times greater than control C1, i.e., only Cd used). The GA3 treatments accumulated more than 50% of the total Cd in the roots, whereas the EDTA treatments showed more than 50% in the leaves. Root dry biomass showed a positive and significant correlation with Cd accumulation. GA3 is environment friendly as compared with EDTA. Therefore, further investigation of GA3 is recommended for phytoremediation research for the remediation of metal-contaminated soil.  相似文献

The present work deals with the biosorption performance of raw and chemically modified biomass of the brown seaweed Lobophora variegata for removal of Cd(II) and Pb(II) from aqueous solution. The biosorption capacity was significantly altered by pH of the solution delineating that the higher the pH, the higher the Cd(II) and Pb(II) removal. Kinetic and isotherm experiments were carried out at the optimal pH 5.0. The metal removal rates were conspicuously rapid wherein 90% of the total sorption occurred within 90 min. Biomass treated with CaCl2 demonstrated the highest potential for the sorption of the metal ions with the maximum uptake capacities i.e. 1.71 and 1.79 mmol g−1 for Cd(II) and Pb(II), respectively. Kinetic data were satisfactorily manifested by a pseudo-second order chemical sorption process. The process mechanism consisting of both surface adsorption and pore diffusion was found to be complex. The sorption data have been analyzed and fitted to sorption isotherm of the Freundlich, Langmuir, and Redlich–Peterson models. The regression coefficient for both Langmuir and Redlich–Peterson isotherms were higher than those secured for Freundlich isotherm implying that the biosorption system is possibly monolayer coverage of the L. variegata surface by the cadmium and lead ions. FT-IR studies revealed that Cd(II) and Pb(II) binding to L. variegata occurred primarily through biomass carboxyl groups accompanied by momentous interactions of the biomass amino and amide groups. In this study, we have observed that Lvariegata had maximum biosorption capacity for Cd(II) and Pb(II) reported so far for any marine algae.

This article presents the results of an investigation that assessed the extent and effect of oxidation of Cr(III) in manganese-enriched clays on the electrokinetic remedial efficiency. Because chromium commonly exists along with nickel and cadmium at contaminated sites, the effects of changes in chromium redox chemistry on the migration of the coexisting nickel and cadmium was also studied. Bench-scale electrokinetic experiments were conducted using two different clays: kaolin, a typical low buffering soil, and glacial till, a high buffering soil. Tests were performed with 1000?mg/kg of Cr(III), 500?mg/kg of Ni(II), and 250?mg/kg of Cd(II), both with and without the presence of 1000?mg/kg of manganese. All of these experiments were conducted under a constant voltage gradient of 1.0?VDC/ cm. The experimental results showed that in the presence of manganese, percentages of oxidation of Cr(III) into Cr(VI) ranged from 67% in kaolin to 28% in glacial till even before the application of induced electric potential. The low extent of oxidation of Cr(III) in glacial till may be attributed to the initial precipitation of Cr(III) as Cr(OH)3 resulting from high soil pH, reducing aqueous Cr(III) concentrations present within the soil. In kaolin, Cr(III), Ni(II), and Cd(II) under electric potential migrated toward cathode and precipitated near the cathode due to high soil pH. When manganese was present in kaolin, Cr(VI) that was formed due to the oxidation of Cr(III) migrated toward anode and adsorbed to the soil surfaces near the anode region due to low soil pH. However, remaining Cr(III) as well as Ni(II), and Cd(II) migrated towards and precipitated near the cathode due to high soil pH. In kaolin, the migration of Ni(II) and Cd(II) was retarded in the presence of manganese due to a larger soil zone of elevated pH near the cathode. In glacial till, the migration of Cr(III), Ni(II) and Cd(II) was insignificant due to precipitation resulting from high soil pH caused by the high buffering capacity of the soil. Cr(VI) that resulted from the partial oxidation of Cr(III) in the presence of manganese, however, migrated toward the anode. Overall, this study demonstrated that the effects of manganese on Cr(III) oxidation in low buffering soils can be significant, which can in turn affect the extent and direction of chromium migration under induced electric potential.  相似文献

The biosorption of cadmium (Cd) and chromium (Cr) by using dried Wolffia globosa biomass were investigated using batch technique. The effects of concentration and pH solution on the adsorption isotherm were measured by determining the adsorption isotherm at initial metal concentrations from 10 to 400 mg/L and pH 4 to 7 for Cd, and pH 1.5 to 6 for Cr. The adsorption equilibria were found to follow Langmuir models. The maximum adsorption capacity (Xm) at pH 7 in W. globosa-Cd system was estimated to be 80.7 mg/g, while the maximum removal achieved at pH 4, pH 5, and pH 6 were 35.1, 48.8, and 65.4 mg/g, respectively. The Xm at pH 1.5 in W. globosa--Cr system was estimated to be 73.5 mg/g, while the maximum removal achieved at pH 3, pH 5, and pH 6 were 47.4, 33.1, and 12.9 mg/g, respectively. The effects of contact times on Cd and Cr sorption indicated that they were absorbed rapidly and more efficiently at lower concentrations.  相似文献

Batch cultures of algae grown at low (0.1 %) and elevated (2.0 %) concentrations of CO2, as well as in original BBM (Bold Basal Medium) and BBM modified with phosphate, EDTA and a combination of both, were exposed to cadmium (Cd(NO3)2·4H2O, 3CdSO4·8H2O and CdCl2·H2O) for 24 h. Regardless of the salt applied, the concentration-dependent relationships of Cd toxicity were found to be biphasic, suggesting the different affinity of target sites to cadmium. Nominal values of EC50 obtained for algae grown in original BBM and at low CO2 were 18.0, 16.44 and 15.37 mg·dm−3 for cadmium nitrate, sulphate and chloride, respectively. However, it was estimated that 97 % of the free cadmium in the added salts were bound by components of original BBM such as EDTA, phosphates, chloride and sulphate. The effect of Cd-salts at concentrations corresponding to EC50 values on algae were tested in media with 10-fold reduced phosphates (BBM-P), BBM depleted of EDTA (BBM-EDTA) and of both phosphates and EDTA (BBM-P-EDTA). For algae grown at low CO2 and BBM-P, cadmium was about 25 % less toxic than those applied in original BBM. Cadmium greatly inhibited (about 85 % of the control) the growth of algae cultured in BBM-EDTA; this effect was only slightly dependent on the CO2 concentration. Deficits of both EDTA and P led to effects similar to those brought about by the absence of EDTA only. The toxicity of cadmium depends on CO2 concentration only when algae are grown in original BBM. The growth of algae under high CO2 conditions was reduced considerably less (about 80% of control) compared with low CO2 concentrations (about 50 % of control). A relationship was found between the toxicity of cadmium salts and final pH values only in variants of low-CO2 grown algae; with an increase of medium pH the toxicity decreased. The results suggest that both growth conditions and the binding ability of the medium markedly affect the toxicity of cadmium towards microalgae.  相似文献

The present study reports the influence of different factors on the sorption of Pb and Cd by Nostoc muscorum. The results showed that extent of Pb and Cd removal by N. muscorum cells increased with increasing biosorbent dose, but exhibited decline in the adsorption capacity. The maximum sorption of Cd (85.2%) and Pb (93.3%) was achieved at 60 and 80 μg/ml concentrations of respective metal, within 30 and 15 min, respectively. The result revealed that optimum biosorption of Pb and Cd occurred at pH 5 and 6, respectively, at 40°C temperature. Presence of binary metals (both Pb and Cd) in a solution showed that the presence of one metal ion resulted into decreased sorption of other metal ion. The presence of Ca and EDTA showed significant decrease in the sorption of Pb and Cd, while other anions and cations did not show significant effect on the biosorption of both the metals. Maximum desorption of Pb and Cd was achieved in the presence of EDTA and HNO3, respectively. Results also showed that the test biosorbent could be repeatedly used up to six biosorption/desorption cycles without significant loss of its initial metal adsorption capacity.  相似文献
