[Passivation and Remediation Effects and Mechanisms of Plant Residual Modified Materials on Lead-Contaminated Soils]

The specific characteristics and mechanism of passivation of Pb in soil were studied using HAP/C composite (PBGC-HAP/C) as passivation, and using proportion of PBGC-HAP/C, particle size and type of passivator, soil moisture content, soil pH value of Pb, and particle size of the material as influencing factors. The results showed that with an increase in dosage of the passivator and passivation time, the passivation effect increases gradually. Reducing the particle size of the passivator is beneficial to improving the passivation effect. pH has a greater impact on passivation, with the passivation effect obviously rising with increased pH, and the passivation rate in an alkaline environment can reach above 99%. An increase in water content is beneficial to the improvement of the passivation effect, but the contribution is not significant. Through comparative analysis of the XPS, XRD, and FT-IR of materials before and after passivation, the results indicated that the passivation of PBGC-HAP/C to Pb is mainly through direct and indirect effects. Direct effects include physical adsorption, chemical complexation, electrostatic interaction, ion exchange, and precipitation; the indirect effect is mainly enhanced by increasing the pH value of the organic matter.
