Comparing the sorptive affinity of an aluminum-mining by-product for cationic and anionic pollutants

E. Tarso Souza Costa et al.

Summary: Oxide-rich materials like red mud are efficient adsorbents for soil pollutants, with an evaluation of sorption reactions of selected cations/anions on aluminum-mining by-product proposing a new distribution constant to assess sorption efficiency. Anionic adsorbates showed higher affinity for the by-product than cationic ones, with lead and copper being more adsorbed compared to zinc and cadmium.

Crop straw-derived biochar alleviated cadmium and copper phytotoxicity by reducing bioavailability and accumulation in a field experiment of rice-rape-corn rotation system

Yutong Zong et al.

Summary: The study found that biochar can effectively control the bioavailability and translocation of heavy metals in soil, reducing their accumulation in crops. Application of biochar led to an increase in soil pH, organic carbon, and cation exchangeable capacity, with rice husk biochar showing the most significant effects. The sequential extraction also showed changes in the exchangeable and residual fractions of heavy metals under biochar treatments.
