Abstract:Metal solid phase speciation plays an important role in the control of the long-term stability of metals in biosolid-amended soils. The present work used pH-adsorption edge experiments and synchrotron-based spectroscopy techniques to understand the solid phase speciation of copper, nickel and zinc in a biosolid-amended soil. Comparison of metal adsorption edges on the biosolid-amended soil and the soil sample showed that Cu, Ni, and Zn can be retained by both soil and biosolid components such as amorphous iron… Show more
“…Based on the results obtained in this study, the incremental change in the proportion of the Cu active fraction was positively associated with organic matter degradation, but not as closely as with HR, especially DP. In other words, a more accurate indicator can be employed to characterize the incremental change in Cu active fraction on the basis of the affirmative conclusion that uptaken Cu can be reflected by organic matter degradation (Mamindy-Pajany et al, 2014). Accordingly, the DP of sludge, which is responsible for the development of aggregate structure, also induces transformation of the Cu inactive fraction to the active fraction, to some extent, implying that the fraction of Cu is mainly regulated by sludge-borne micromolecular organic matters prior to its stabilization.…”

“…Adsorption capacities were evaluated at different pHs as the pH is crucial for changes in the surface charge of adsorbents, the degree of ionization of the adsorbate as well as the speciation of the adsorbent (Mamindy-Pajany et al, 2014). Adsorption increases with the increase in pH from 11.03 mg/g to 21.6 mg/g and the maximum sorption was reached at the pH range of 5e6 and then the removal was dramatically decreased (Fig.…”
“…The authors emphasised that XAS was a widespread and accepted research tool in the environmental and geo-sciences due to its element specicity. Solid phase speciation of Cu, Ni and Zn, which plays an important role in the long-term stability of metals in a biosolid-amended soil, was reported by Mamindy-Pajany et al 420 using m-XRF spectrometry and m-XANES. solid-liquid) as well as in different media such as plant tissues, rhizosphere, soils, sediments, ores, mineral process tailings, etc.…”
This review covers developments in and applications of XRF techniques such as EDXRF, WDXRF, TXRF, XRF microscopy using technologies such as synchrotron sources, X-ray optics, X-ray tubes and detectors in laboratory, mobile and hand-held systems.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
