Soil heavy metal pollution from Pb/Zn smelting regions in China and the remediation potential of biomineralization

Xinghua Luo et al.

Summary: This paper summarizes the heavy metal pollution in soils caused by Pb/Zn smelting in China in the past 10 years, and highlights the urgent need for remediation due to the extreme toxicity. The study investigates the primary anthropogenic activities contributing to soil pollution in smelting areas, as well as the potential of biomineralization and several optimization methods for remediation.

Spatial distribution of toxic metal(loid)s at an abandoned zinc smelting site, Southern China.

Jiaqing Zeng et al.

Summary: A comprehensive study was conducted on an abandoned zinc smelting site in Southern China to determine contamination characteristics and spatial distribution patterns of toxic metal(loid)s in soils. The study found that soil environmental quality was seriously threatened by Cd, Zn, As, Pb, and Hg contaminants, with strong spatial heterogeneity in their distribution. The study also showed that the pollutants mainly concentrated in fill layers, with different contaminants exhibiting varying migration depths and spatial variability.

Evaluating aggregate stability, surface properties and disintegration behaviour of bauxite residue induced by Ca/Na

Shengguo Xue et al.

Summary: The study used an integrated method to evaluate the aggregation behavior of bauxite residue following Ca/Na additions. The results indicated that Ca(2+) improved resistance to dispersion, while Na(+) induced disintegration of aggregates. This research provides insights into the effects of Ca2+/Na(+) on aggregate stability and surface properties.

Sorption of arsenate(V) to naturally occurring secondary iron minerals formed at different conditions: The relationship between sorption behavior and surface structure

Hui Li et al.

Summary: The study focused on the sorption behavior of arsenic on naturally formed secondary iron minerals (SIMs) and found that the extent of As(V) sorption varied among different stages of SIMs but was not significantly influenced by Na+/Ca2+ concentration or ionic strength. Additionally, the immobilization of As(V) mainly depends on exchange with SO42- and surface complexation, along with phase transformation from schwertmannite/jarosite to goethite and other phases.

A novel framework to estimate soil mineralogy using soil spectroscopy

Wanderson de Sousa Mendes et al.

Summary: This study developed a novel framework using Vis-NIR-SWIR spectroscopy to quantify main soil minerals and create new environmental variables for digital soil mapping. By selecting specific bands in the spectra and converting measurement units, the estimation of mineral content in soils was improved, showing promising results for estimating soil minerals.
