Vanadium in a Coastal Lagoon: Distribution, Sources, Speciation, and Ecological Risks in Sediments and Water at Xiamen in China
CHEMISTRY AND ECOLOGY(2024)
摘要
This study aimed to explore the spatial distribution, sources, contamination status, speciation, and risks of vanadium (V) in sediments and water from Yundang Lagoon (YL) at Xiamen in China. The concentration of V in YL water exhibited a similar distribution pattern, with an average concentration lower than the Chinese drinking water limit value. The V content in the sediments of various YL sampling sites varied significantly. The average V concentration in sediments was 108.28 mg/kg, ranging from 77.38 mg/kg to 151.20 mg/kg. Speciation investigations revealed that the largest amount of V was bound in the residual fraction, while the acid-soluble fraction had the lowest concentration in sediments. On average, the residual and acid-soluble fractions were 51.82% (ranging from 16.09% to 76.13%) and 1.22% (ranging from 0.16% to 2.60%), respectively. Enrichment factor values suggested minor anthropogenic enrichment of V in sediments. Correlation analysis indicated a weak correlation between silt and clay, while carbonate and Fe showed significant correlations with total V in sediments. This correlation suggests that concentrations of Fe and carbonate could favour V accumulation in YL sediments. Potential ecological risk values suggested no risk of V to aquatic biota in the study area.
