Changes in the heavy metal contents of soil from the Park Grass Experiment at Rothamsted Experimental Station

The classical Rothamsted Experiments allow to contribute to current research. The heavy metal content of soil and hay samples have been measured with ICP-AES from a control and a fertilized plot of the Park Grass Experiment. Today a difference of 1.2 can be observed in the pH levels of the control and fertilized plots; the pH level of the control plot has decreased about 1.0, that of the fertilized plot about 2.2 as a result of 150 years of acid deposition and fertilization. The changes in the pH levels has caused many changes in the heavy metal content of the top layer of the soil. Using different extraction methods (e.g., ammonium acetate, EDTA, and sequential analysis), the heavy metal content of different fractions have been estimated. In the control plot, the Zn, Cd and Pb content increased. In the fertilized plot, the Pb and Cd contents have also increased because of atmospheric deposition and small amounts of lead in the fertilizer. The available form of Cd and Pb increased in both the control and the fertilized plots.

摘要：为了研究冶炼厂下风向烟囱降尘对农田土壤重金属污染影响程度,以济源市某一冶炼厂工业烟囱下风向降尘覆盖农田土壤为研究对象,依次对距离该厂烟囱大约为750m-3000m的7个农田研究区（P1-P7）土壤中重金属（Hg、As、Pb、Cd、Cu、Zn、Ni、Cr、）含量进行污染状况分析,采用了单项潜在生态风险指数法和综合潜在生态风险指数法对冶炼厂下风向烟囱降尘土壤中重金属的潜在生态风险进行评价。结果表明：在3 km2研究区域范围内,距离冶炼厂越近土壤重金属含量越高,Pb、Cd为重度污染,超过了《土壤环境质量农用地土壤污染风险管控标准》（GB15618-2018）农用地土壤污染风险管制值的1.2倍,距离冶炼厂烟囱下风向P1区土壤中重金属As、Pb、Cd、Cu、Zn超过土壤环境质量农用地土壤风险筛选值,Cd 在浓度值均超过农用土壤污染风险管制值1.8倍,As元素平均浓度值超农用土壤污染风险管制值1.7倍,Pb、Cu和Zn污染较严重,Cd、Hg对综合指数（RI）贡献值较大分别为68.63和22.4。单项潜在生态风险指数评价结果显示Cd存在极严重的潜在生态风险,Pb、Cu存在较严重潜在生态风险,冶炼厂下风向土壤中综合潜在生态风险指数评价显示,冶炼厂下风向降尘土壤重金属具有较强的生态风险。

Desorption of Heavy Metals from Typical Soil Components (Clay,Peat) with Glycine

Abstract

Natural organic chelating agents take part in the mobilization and translocation of heavy metals in unpolluted and polluted soils. They also have to be considered as possible extracting agents for the decontamination of heavy metal polluted soils. For an assessment of the desorption capability of glycinc, heavy metals (Cd, Cu, Ni, Pb, Zn) were adsorbed onto typical soil components (bentonite and peat). The metal loaded sorbents were resuspended in aqueous solutions of glycine at pH 7.0 and 4.5 and the quantities of the desorbed metals were analysed in the liquid phase. Furthermore, the dependency of the desorption rate on the duration of experiments and the metal content were investigated. The remobilization of heavy metals from bentonite by glycine at pH 7.0 decreases following the order Cu > Ni > Zn > Cd > Pb and ranges from 95% to 9.5%. The desorption rate was significantly lower at pH 4.5 and in suspensions of peat.     

Chemical Aspects of Heavy Metal Solubility with Reference to Sewage Sludge Amended Soils

Abstract

The long term benefits of applications of sewage sludges to land as an alternative source for plant nutrients are frequently limited by potentially toxic contents of heavy metals. While upper limits for metal contents in amended soils have been defined in both North America and Europe, there has been little attention paid to the fate of the metals if soil management practices are changed and the solubility and hence the mobility of the metals increased. This study investigated the role of changes in pH and additions of chloride ions to the content of soluble Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Pb, Ni, V and Zn in soils to which sewage sludge had been applied. The contents of soluble metals ranged from less than 1 μmol L^?1 for V to 500 μmol L^?1 for Zn. For all the metals, contents were greater in the presence of Cl^? ions and increased markedly as the pH decreased below about pH 5. Contents of V, Cr, Cu and Pb increased at pH's above 7. As all metal contents were undersaturated with respect to hydroxide or carbonate precipitates, the changes in their contents were probably related to desorption from variable charge sites on mineral and/or humic surfaces.     

Dynamics of Heavy Metals in Soils of a Reed Bed System

Abstract

Heavy metal balances of a reed bed system (soil pH > 7, carbonate content about 30%) continuously flooded with sewage during 5 years indicate that only Pb, Zn, Cd and Cu were partly stored in the soil. Strong reductive conditions, high sewage percolation and metal complexation with soluble organic compounds caused a considerable leaching of Fe, Mn, Ni and Cr from the soil and formation of amorphous iron oxides. The results indicate that continously flooded reed bed systems with high percolation rates are not suitable for the elimination of heavy metals. Conversely, it should be possible to purify metal contaminated soils through percolation of sewage with low metal content.

不同提取方法对巴戟天中金属元素含量影响的初步探讨

采用了水提、醇提及模拟胃酸浓度的酸提法对巴戟天药材进行提取,并用火焰原子吸收分光光度法分别对其中的金属元素含量进行了测定。实验结果表明,三种提取方法中,醇提法金属溶出量最少,对于有害重金属含量较高的中药,可以在中药提取的工艺当中,利用不同的提取方法除去有害重金属。通过对三种提取方法所得的提取液中Pb、Cd的存在形态研究表明,Cd在工艺过程除去相对较容易,而Pb较困难,所以应在种植巴戟天时注意避免土壤及水源的Pb污染。

Adsorption of heavy metal ions onto dithizone-anchored poly (EGDMA-HEMA) microbeads

The dithizone-anchored poly (EGDMA-HEMA) microbeads were prepared for the removal of heavy metal ions (i.e. cadmium, mercury, chromium and lead) from aqueous media containing different amounts of these ions (25-500 ppm) and at different pH values (2.0-8.0). The maximum adsorptions of heavy metal ions onto the dithizone-anchored microbeads from their solutions was 18.3, Cd(II); 43.1, Hg(II); 62.2, Cr(III) and 155.2 mg g(-1) for Pb(II). Competition between heavy metal ions (in the case of adsorption from mixture) yielded adsorption capacities of 9.7, Cd(II); 28.7, Hg(II); 17.6, Cr(III) and 38.3 mg g(-1) for Pb(II). The same affinity order was observed under non-competitive and competitive adsorption, i.e. Cr(III)>Pb(II)>Hg(II)>Cd(II). The adsorption of heavy metal ions increased with increasing pH and reached a plateaue value at around pH 5.0. Heavy metal ion adsorption from artificial wastewater was also studied. The adsorption capacities are 4.3, Cd(II); 13.2, Hg(II); 7.2, Cr(III) and 16.4 mg g(-1) for Pb(II). Desorption of heavy metal ions was achieved using 0.1 M HNO(3). The dithizone-anchored microbeads are suitable for repeated use (for more than five cycles) without noticeable loss of capacity.

Anodic Stripping Voltammetry of Heavy Metals at Nanocrystalline Boron‐Doped Diamond Electrode

Boron‐doped Diamond (BDD) electrode has become one of the important tools for heavy metal detection. By studying some analytical parameters of DPASV method, like deposition time and potential in different electrolyte concentrations (acetate buffer), the conditions for detecting very low metal ion levels (Zn, Cd, Pb, and Cu) could be chosen. Diluted electrolyte (0.01 M buffer) was one of the factors favoring low detection and quantification limits, but its quantification range is short in comparison to more concentrated media. For ?1.7 V deposition potential, the detection of single metal at ppb levels was reached in 60 s deposition time. Understanding different metal‐metal interactions shows the limits to the simultaneous determination of heavy metals at BDD. Quantification was possible for the simultaneous determination of Zn, Cd and Pb despite the overlapping of Zn and Cd peaks. The performance of the BDD was compared with that of another C‐based solid electrode: the glassy carbon electrode (without mercury plating). A lower base line current, wider potential range, higher sensitivity (3 to 5 times higher than GC) and longevity of the material were noticed for the BDD.
