Immobilization of Pb and Cd in contaminated soil using nano-crystallite hydroxyapatite
The efficiency and mechanism of nano-hydroxyapatite (nHA) in immobilizing Pb and Cd in contaminated soil were assessed in this work.The X-ray diffraction analysis indicated that the key mechanisms for Pb/Cd immobilization in the soil involve both surface complexation on the surface of nHA and dissolution of the nHA amendments and precipitation of Pb/Cd-containing phosphates.We tested the effects of different nHA dose (the molar ratio of P/(Pb+Cd)) on the water extraction of heavy metals,and phytoavailability of soil metals.The nHA application could significantly reduce water soluble Pb with 72% and Cd with 90%,bioaccessible Pb with a reduction of 12.5-27.5% and Cd with a reduction of 17.66-34.64%,respectively.The nHA reduced phytoavailability of Pb and Cd with 65.3% and 64.6% in contaminated soil,respectively.In addition,the treatment efficiency increased along with the nHA dose (based on the molar ratio of P/(Pb+Cd)) increased,and most effective ratio was molar ratio of P/(Pb+Cd) at 5∶1.The results in this study showed that nHA can immobililize Pb and Cd in contaminated soil effectively.
