“…This finding corresponds to the results obtained by other researchers (ARORA; BHARDWAJ; SHARMA, 2002;SHARMA et al, 2006;CHAHAL, 2010). Organic matter is an important soil factor affecting the availability of B. Humus extracted from a soil retained significant amounts of B and was considered to play an important role in B adsorption (YERMIYAHU; KEREN; CHEN, 1995).…”

“…Of these, the soil pH has been reported as the main factor affecting the B adsorption in the soil (SALTALI et al, 2005;HO;LEE, 2009), mainly by influencing in the control of the predominant B species in solution and attributes related to its adsorption such as charge balance on colloids surface. Other factors, such as the clay content, aluminium and iron (hydr)oxides, clay minerals, calcium carbonate and organic matter of soil also influence B sorption in agricultural soils (GOLDBERG; CORWIN; SUAREZ, 2005;CHAHAL, 2007;GOLDBERG;SHOUSE, 2008;SHAFIQ et al, 2008;CHAHAL, 2010;STEINER et al, 2012). Several possible mechanisms for the chemical combination of B with soils include anion exchange, precipitation of insoluble borates with sesquioxides, sorption of borate ions or molecular boric acid, formation of organic complexes, and fixation of B in the clay lattice BINGHAM, 1985).…”

Boron adsorption in soils affects their behavior in the environment and their availability to plants. This study investigated the effect of liming on B adsorption in different soils from Paraná State, and to correlate these values with some physical and chemical properties of the soils. Surface samples (0-0.2 m) of nine soils with different parent material and physicochemical properties were used. Samples with or without lime application were incubated for 60 days. Boron adsorption was accomplished by shaking 4.0g soil, for 24 h, with 20 mL of 0.01 mol L -1 CaCl 2 solution containing different concentrations of B (0, 1, 2, 4, 8 and 16 mg L -1 ). Sorption was fitted to non-linear form of the Langmuir adsorption isotherm. Boron adsorption increased as concentration increased. Maximum adsorption capacity (MAC) of B ranged from 2.3 to 42.9 mg kg -1 (without lime) and 22.7 to 109.9 mg kg -1 (with lime). The two Arenic Hapludalf have had the highest B adsorption capacity, whereas the sandy-textured Arenic Hapludult (Ult1) had the lowest values. Liming increased the amount of adsorbed B on the soils, except in the Typic Hapludox (Ox4) and Arenic Hapludult (Ult2). The bonding energy (K) decreased with the lime in most soils, indicating that at higher pH values the B is adsorbed more weakly. The soil pH, the organic matter, and the contents of silicon oxide (SiO 2 ) and aluminum oxide (Al 2 O 3 ) were the soils properties that affecting the B adsorption on Paraná soils.

“…These authors whilst investigating weathered Brazilian soils used B concentrations in the solution ranging from 0 to 16 mg L -1 and found that B adsorption in soils were well fitted by the Langmuir isotherm. Other authors also pointed out the ability of the Langmuir isotherm to estimate the B adsorption by soils at different pH values (Communar and Keren, 2006;Shafiq et al, 2008;Goldberg et al, 2008;Arora and Chahal, 2010;Steiner et al, 2012).…”

Temporary B deficiency can be triggered by liming of acid soils because of increased B adsorption at higher soil pH. Plants respond directly to the activity of B in soil solution and only indirectly to B adsorbed on soil constituents. Because the range between deficient and toxic B concentration is relatively narrow, this poses difficulty in maintaining appropriate B levels in soil solution. Thus, knowledge of the chemical behavior of B in the soil is particularly important. The present study investigated the effect of soil pH on B adsorption in four soils of Paraná State, and to correlate these values with the physical and chemical properties of the soils. Surface samples were taken from a Rhodic Hapludox, Arenic Hapludalf, Arenic Hapludult, and one Typic Usthorthent. To evaluate the effect of pH on B adsorption, subsamples soil received the application of increasing rates of calcium carbonate. ), Rhodic Hapludox (17.4 mg kg -1 ), and Typic Usthorthent (7.0 mg kg -1 ). The organic matter content, clay content, and aluminum oxide content (Al2O3) were the soils properties that affecting the B adsorption on Paraná soils.

“…The empirical description of B adsorption on aluminum oxide (Choi and Chen 1979), clay minerals (Jasmund and Lindner 1973), calcite (Goldberg and Forster 1991), and soils (Elrashidi and O'Connor 1982;Evans 1987;Goldberg and Forster 1991;Wen-Ting et al 2009) has been previously investigated using Freundlich equation. Arona and Chahal (2010) studied the effects of soil properties on B adsorption by arid and semiarid benchmark soils, and they reported that B adsorption data fitted successfully with Langmuir and Freundlich equations. Datta and Bhadoria (1999) studied B adsorption by acidic soils from India and reported n and K Fr values ranging from 1.32 to 1.89 and 0.21 to 3.28, respectively.…”

This study aimed to evaluate boron (B) adsorption and the capacity of a surface complexation model for simulating this process in calcareous soils. Ten surface soils were collected from different land use areas in Hamedan, Western Iran, to characterize B sorption by soils. The mean B adsorbed by the sample soils varied from 8.9 to 32.8 %. Two empirical models including linear and Freundlich equations fitted well to the experimental data. The linear distribution (K d ) values varied from 1.32 to 6.86 L kg -1 , while the parameters of Freundlich equation including n and K Fr ranged from 1.16 to 1.33 and 3.31-16.81, respectively. The comparison of two empirical models indicated that B adsorption followed a nonlinear pattern. The soil organic matter had positive correlations with Freundlich and linear distribution coefficients. However, empirical models were not suitable for explaining the mechanism of B adsorption, so a surface complexation model was used to simulate and predict the B adsorption process. B adsorption modeling was conducted using Visual MINTEQ and PHREEQC, based on the assemblage of major surface components (hydrous ferric oxides, aluminum hydroxides, calcium carbonate, and humic acids). B adsorption was successfully modeled by surface complexation. The significant contribution of organic matter to B complexes was resulted from both experimental data and mechanistic modeling.
