Abstract

The contamination of soils with heavy metals has become a major environmental concern. Extractive-decontamination of the toxic metals (Pb, Cd and Cu) from the contaminated soil using N2EDTA and STPP was evaluated by batch extraction. The influences of mixed liquid concentrations, oscillating time, pH of solutions on leaching efficiency were investigated. Pb, Cd and Cu fractions characteristics were compared before and after leaching to reveal the leaching of them. The extraction efficiencies increased in the order of Pb > Cd > Cu for Na2EDTA, and Cd > Pb>Cu for STPP. Na2EDTA and STPP can coordinate with metal ions in the soil, but the complexing ability of STPP is relatively weak. Synergistic effects on metal leaching with contaminated soil were observed in low solution. However, antagonistic effects on metal leaching were found at higher than 0.01 mol/L. The heavy metal removal efficiency from soil increases with concentrations of mixed solutions and leching time. Metal fractionation analysis showed that the leaching metal was mainly from acid exchangeable, reduction state, oxidation state, while residual state metals were almost unchanged.
