Humic acid preparation, properties and interactions with metals lead and cadmium
چکیده انگلیسی

Humic acid (HA) extracted from soil is investigated in terms of its cation exchange capacity (CEC), zero point of charge (zpc), oxygen containing functional group content, scanning electron microscope (SEM) images, and pH. The CEC of HA that was dried was approximately half the CEC of hydrated HA. Metal retention by HA was studied by conducting 24 h batch equilibrium tests with lead (Pb, as PbCl2) and cadmium (Cd, as CdCl2) and HA at pH 4 and 6, and with a mixture of HA, mackinawite and kaolinite. The reactivity of the HA towards Pb and Cd was reduced when it was combined with the mackinawite and kaolinite. The mackinawite raised the pH and dissolved some of the HA, until sufficient reactions between the metals and mixture lowered the pH enough for the dissolved HA to solidify and remove more metal from solution. HA bonding with the mackinawite and kaolinite reduced the HA sites available for metal uptake. The functional group content of the HA provided indications regarding the origin of the HA, the extent of humification and the presence of less decomposed fractions. The CEC of the HA could conservatively predict the amount of metal uptake. Low pH conditions are favorable for metal removal from solution by HA because the zpc of the HA was below pH 0.5 and because at higher pHs HA begins to dissolve. HA, especially in the hydrated phase, may represent an important material for metal removal from waters and wastewaters containing metals.
