“…However, Ni adsorption was close to exhaustion (Figure 4b), which would control the operational life even though it still has very high affinity for uptake of Pb and Cu. A similar adsorption sequence for pine bark and the studied heavy metals have been previously reported in a batch study [30].…”

This paper presents an estimation of the service life of three filters composed of sand and three alternative adsorbents for stormwater treatment according to Norwegian water quality standards for receiving surface waters. The study conducted pilot scale column tests on three adsorbent amended filters for treatment of highway runoff in cold climates under high hydraulic loads. The objectives were to evaluate the effect of high hydraulic loads and the application of deicing salts on the performance of these filters. From previous theoretical and laboratory analysis granulated activated charcoal, pine bark, and granulated olivine were chosen as alternative adsorbent materials for the present test. Adsorption performance of the filters was evaluated vis-à-vis four commonly found hazardous metals (Cu, Pb, Ni and Zn) in stormwater. The results showed that the filters were able to pass water at high inflow rates while achieving high removal. Among the filters, the filters amended with olivine or pine bark provided the best performance both in short and long-term tests. The addition of NaCl (1 g/L) did not show any adverse impact on the desorption of already adsorbed metals, except for Ni removal by the charcoal amended filter, which was negatively impacted by the salt addition. The service life of the filters was found to be limited by zinc and copper, due to high concentrations observed in local urban runoff, combined with moderate affinity with the adsorbents. It was concluded that both the olivine and the pine bark amended filter should be tested in full-scale conditions.

“…The natural content of elements in the cortex, referred to as the bark matrix, can affect the results [5,20,39,55]. Studies of Cantion et al (2009,2012) on the anthropological fraction of impurities deposited on bark show that bark may indeed respond as a selective filter, increasing or excluding certain elements, e.g.…”

“…Ca, K, or Fe [33][34]. Also, studies on the adsorption ability of maritime pine bark confirm that the bark can act as a selective filter of heavy metals [55]. Therefore, in order to determine the influence of actual environmental pollution based on the elemental composition of tree bark, the natural level of elements in bark must be taken into account with awareness of possible interactions between the elements in bark and in dust.…”

“…In fact, Fu and Wang [1] reviewed the sorption capacities of agricultural and industrial waste and by-products, as well as of various types of natural substances, finding promising results. In this regard, in the last years we have studied several sorbents for the removal or retention of cationic heavy metals (Cd, Cu, Hg, Ni, Pb, Zn) [16][17][18][19][20], and anionic pollutants (Cr(VI) and As(V)) [21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28]. However, as far as we know, no previous study has dealt with Cd and Pb retention on forest soil, vineyard soil, and pyritic material samples, as well as on fine mussel shell, oak ash, hemp waste and pine bark samples, differentiating between results corresponding to the individual materials and those corresponding to the soils and pyritic material amended with the by-products.…”

Batch-type experiments were used to study cadmium (Cd) and lead (Pb) sorption/desorption on forest soil, vineyard soil and pyritic material samples, on the by-products mussel shell, oak ash, pine bark and hemp waste, and on forest soil, vineyard soil and pyritic material amended with 48 t ha −1 of oak ash, mussel shell, and hemp waste. The main results were that the forest soil showed higher Cd and Pb retention than the vineyard soil and the pyritic material. Regarding the byproducts, sorption was in the following order: oak ash > mussel shell > hemp waste > pine bark, with desorption following an inverse sequence. The pH was the parameter that most influenced Cd and Pb sorption. Cd and Pb sorption curves showed better fitting to the Freundlich than to the Langmuir model, indicating the dominance of multilayer interactions. Oak ash and mussel shell were the amendments causing higher increase in Cd and Pb sorption on both soils and the pyritic material (close to 100% with the oak ash amendment), as well as more a pronounced decrease in desorption. These results could be used to favor an effective management of the by-products studied, which could retain Cd and Pb in soils and degraded areas, preventing water pollution.
