摘要
The use of calcite (CA) as an active capping material has high potential for controlling the release of phosphorus (P) from sediments, but its efficiency still needs to be enhanced. To address this issue, an iron-modified CA (Fe-CA) was prepared, the removal performance of phosphate from aqueous solution by Fe-CA was studied, and the efficiency of the use of Fe-CA as an active capping material to prevent the liberation of P from sediments was investigated. The results showed that Fe-CA exhibited much higher phosphate removal ability than CA. The phosphate removal efficiency of Fe-CA increased with an increase in the Fe-CA dosage. Increasing the initial phosphate concentration gave rise to an increase in the amount of phosphate removed by Fe-CA, and the maximum amount of phosphate removed by Fe-CZ reached 3.09 mg•g-1. Sediment capping with Fe-CA could effectively control the release of soluble reactive P (SRP) from the sediment into the overlying water, leading to a very low concentration of SRP in the overlying water. Additionally, the Fe-CA capping also resulted in the transformation of a small amount of redox-sensitive P (BD-P) and metal-oxide-bound P (NaOH-rP) in sediments to residual P (Res-P), leading to a slight increase in the stability of P in the sediment. The overwhelming majority (90.8%) of P bound by the Fe-CA capping layer existed in the form of NaOH-rP, calcium-bound P (HCl-P), and Res-P, which are relatively very stable. Furthermore, the percentage of bioavailable P (BAP) as a proportion of total extractable P in the P-bound Fe-CA capping layer was very low, and the bound P was re-released with difficulty into the water column for algae growth. Compared to CA capping, the efficiency for the control of sedimentary P release into the overlying water by Fe-CA capping was much higher, and the stability of P bound by the Fe-CA capping layer was also higher. The results of this work indicate that Fe-CA is a very promising active capping material for the interception of the release of P from sediments into the overlying water. © 2020, Science Press.
