Factors that can affect As and Se adsorption by soils influence the bioavailability and mobility of these elements in the subsurface. This research attempted to compare the adsorption capacities of As(III), As(V), Se(IV), and Se(VI) on a tropical soil commonly found in Singapore in a single-species system. The effect of reaction time, pH, and competitive anions at different concentrations on the adsorption of both As and Se species were investigated. The As and Se adsorption isotherm were also obtained under different background electrolytes. The batch adsorption experiments showed that the sequence of the As and Se adsorption capacities in the soil was As(V) > Se(IV) > As(III) > Se(VI). The adsorption kinetics could be best described by the Elovich equation. The adsorption of As(V), Se(IV), and Se(VI) appeared to be influenced by the variable pH-dependent charges developed on the soil particle surfaces. Phosphate had more profound effect than SO42- on As and Se adsorption in the soil. The competition between PO43- and As or Se oxyanions on adsorption sites was presumably due to the formation of surface complexes and the surface accumulation or precipitation involving PO43-. The thermodynamic adsorption data for As(V) and Se(IV) adsorption followed the Langmuir equation, while the As(III) and Se(VI) adsorption data appeared to be best-represented by the Freundlich equation.
