Selective and efficient immobilization of cadmium in soil by layered double hydroxides intercalated with the mercaptosuccinic acid
Science of The Total Environment(2024)
摘要
Cadmium (Cd) contamination in cropland poses a significant threat to the quality of agricultural products, but even though in-situ remediation has been extensively applied, non-selective immobilization remains an issue. In order to develop a material that specifically immobilizes Cd in soil, a layered double hydroxide, intercalated with mercaptosuccinic acid (MSA-CFA), was synthesized through co-precipitation. In this case, the MSA-CFA's maximum adsorption capacity was increased from the 513.8 mg·g−1 for unintercalated hydrotalcite CFA to 692.6 mg·g−1. Besides, MSA-CFA efficiently removed 99.25 % of Cd from soil water-extract solution and immobilized up to 70.03 % of bio-available Cd. However, interestingly, its immobilization effects on beneficial metal elements Fe, Mn and Zn were milder, being equivalent to 2/7, 5/7 and 1/2 that of lime, respectively. Moreover, XRD and XPS techniques revealed isomorphous substitution with calcium and sulfhydryl complexation during the Cd adsorption by MSA-CFA. Compared with CFA, the increased adsorption capacity of MSA-CFA for Cd was due to intercalated MSA acting as a new adsorption site, while the enhanced selectivity was contributed by sulfhydryl's affinity for Cd. Altogether, MSA-CFA showed great promise as a competitive and highly efficient candidate amendment in Cd-contaminated soil remediation.
