Thermodynamics of copper release from soils as affected by citrate and succinate
The first order equation adequately described the kinetics of Cu desorption from clay, calcareous and sandy soil under isothermal conditions. The reaction rate constant (kd) values of the first order kinetic equation for Cu desorption increased consistently with temperature, indicating faster release of Cu at higher temperatures. The Cu desorption rate from the sorbents at all three temperatures was as follows: citric>succinic. The Ea values indicated that Cu desorption from the three soils in the presence of two organic ligands was a diffusion controlled reaction. The negative values of AH suggested that the desorption reactions were not energy consuming processes. The higher negative values of (ΔH-) for Cu desorption from the three soils in the presence of suecinic ligand indicated that the heat energy required to overcome the Cu desorption barrier was greater than in the presence of citric ligand. The free energy of activation (ΔG-) values ranged from 87 to 87. 9kJ/mol. The largest value of ΔG+ for Cu desorption occurred for clay soil in the presence of succinic acid while the lowest value of ΔG- occurred for sandy soil in the presence of citric acid. The information in this study is necessary to contruct fully functional models that will improve understanding of mobility and bioavailability of metals in soils.
