Arsenic (As) usually is bound to amorphous iron oxides in the soils, and it can be removed via dissolution of iron oxides. Inorganic acid and chelating agent are widely used to extract As in the soil washing. However, the overall performance is highly dependent on the state of As fractionation. In this study, oxalic acid and inorganic acids (HCl, $H_2SO_4$, and $H_3PO_4$) were applied to enhance the dissolution of iron oxides for remediation of As-contaminated soils. Oxalic acid was most effective to extract As from soils and removal of As was two times greater than other inorganic acids. Additionally, 75% of As bound to amorphous iron oxides was removed by 0.2 M oxalic acid. Arsenic removal by oxalic acid was directly proportional to the sum of labile fractions of As instead of the total concentration of As. Therefore, the oxalic acid could extract most As bound to amorphous iron oxides.

In accordance with the view on remediated soil as a resource, this study assessed the applicability of soil washing with the neutral phosphate for remediation of arsenic (As)-contaminated soil. Three soil samples of different land uses (i.e., rice paddy, upland field and forest land) were collected from the study site, and the aqua regia-extractable As concentrations were 59.2, 30.8 and 53.1 mg/kg, respectively. Among the neutral phosphate reagents, ammonium phosphate showed the highest As washing efficiency. The optimized washing condition was 2-hr washing with 0.5M ammonium phosphate solution (pH 6) and soil to liquid ratio of 1 : 5. The extraction efficiencies of As did not guarantee the residual soil As concentrations to satisfy the Korea soil regulatory level (i.e., Worrisome level) in the three soil samples. To enhance washing efficiency, the As-contaminated soil was submerged in washing solution (1 : 1, w/v) for 24 hr and 1-hr washing with 0.5M ammonium phosphate solution was tested. As extraction efficiencies of 36.1 (rice paddy), 21.4 (upland field) and 26.4% (forest land) were attained, which satisfied the Worrisome level for Region 1 (25 mg/kg of As) in rice paddy, but not in upland field and forest land.

이 논문은 실험실 규모의 표면분쇄와 부유선별을 이용하여 비소로 오염된 중국 농경지 토양을 처리하기 위한 분쇄시간의 변화 및 $C_5H_{11}OCS_2K$, $Na_2S$와 $CuSO_4$의 사용량 변화에 대한 평가를 제시한다. 현장시료는 비소농도 76.51 mg/kg으로 한국과 중국의 기준치를 모두 초과하였고, 토양시료 내 비소화합물의 형태는 단계추출법에 의해 '잔류상'이 지배적인 것으로 나타났다(80% 이상). 또한 X-선 회절분석을 통하여 밝혀진 비소성분은 FeAsS, $As_4O_6$, $As_2O_5$ 화합물형태로 존재하는 것으로 확인되었다. 표면분쇄공정에 의해 원시료로부터 탈리된 입자의 비소농도는 분쇄경과시간 5분경 최대치에 달했으며, 이때의 농도는 981.66 mg/kg를 나타냈다. 비소함량이 높은 분쇄입자를 원시료로부터 선택적으로 분리하기 위해 부유선별공정에 사용된 $C_5H_{11}OCS_2K$, $Na_2S$과 $CuSO_4$의 최적 주입량은 각각 200 g/ton으로 결정되었고, 추가로 수행된 2차 부유선별인 청소부선을 통해서 침강물에서의 최대 비소제거 효율은 72.74%까지 증가하였다. 표면분쇄와 포말부선공정을 조합하여 처리된 정화토양의 입도는 >2, 0.075-2 mm와 <0.038 mm이었고, 이 정화토양의 중량분율은 각각 1.76, 18.00, 64.44 wt% 그리고, 최종정화산물의 평균 비소농도는 16.45 mg/kg로 산출되었다.

Arsenic (As) is a ubiquitous element found in several forms in foods and environmental media, such as soil, air, and water. The primary route of human exposure is through ingestion of arsenic-contaminated food and drinking water. The predominant form of arsenic in drinking water is inorganic arsenic, which is both highly toxic and readily bioavailable.(omitted)

Since the amount of red mud, generated from aluminum smelting process as a by-product, has increased worldwide, the recycle and metal resource recovery from the red mud is becoming more important. In this study, in order to recycle the red mud as a soil stabilizer to remediate arsenic contaminated soils, neutralization of red mud was investigated. Red mud was neutralized by washing with distilled water and NaCl, CaCl₂, FeCl₃, and HCl solutions and heating at 200-800℃, and arsenic stabilization characteristics in soils were evaluated with the neutralized red mud. Although washing with distilled water was not effective in neutralizing red mud, the application of the washed red mud to soils lowered the soil pH compared to the application of untreated red mud. Among NaCl, CaCl₂, FeCl₃, and HCl solutions, washing with FeCl₃ showed the most effective in lowering pH of the red mud from pH 10.73 to pH 4.26. Application of the neutralized red mud in soils resulted in quite different arsenic stabilization efficiency depending on soil samples. In M1 soil, which showed relatively high arsenic stabilization efficiency by untreated red mud, the neutralization of red mud resulted in little effect on arsenic stabilization in soil. On the other hand, in M2 soil, which showed low arsenic stabilization efficiency by untreated red mud, the neutralization of red mud increased arsenic stabilization significantly. Soil characteristics such as clay minerals and pH buffering capacity seemed to affect reactions between red mud and soils, which resulted in different effects of the red mud application on soil pH and arsenic stabilization efficiencies.

In this report, we provide experimental evidence that heavy metal ions could be removed using Pachymeniopsis sp., particularly soluble arsenic in leachate from soil contaminated by arsenic. We performed pilot scale of soil washing process based on our results. The adsorption of arsenic by Pachymeniopsis sp. indicated that it could be described with the Langmuir Model and the maximum adsorption capacity increased with decreasing pH (pH 3: 102.48 mg/g, pH 5: 98.32 mg/g, pH 7: 57.70 mg/g, pH 9: 43.34 mg/g) and increasing temperature (10$^{\circ}C$ : 60.38 mg/g, 20$^{\circ}C$ : 76.39 mg/g, 30$^{\circ}C$ : 112.12 mg/g). Our results revealed that soluble arsenic in leachate was removed from 24.03 mg/L to 0.6 ${\pm}$ 0.1 mg/L by Pachymeniopsis sp. for 48hours on pilot scale of soil washing process.

This study evaluated the applicability of stabilization of arsenic (As)-contaminated soil with iron (Fe) oxides at the former Janghang smelter site. Three Fe oxides (magnetite, goethite, and hematite) were tested as stabilizing agents to one soil sample collected from the study site. Amendment of 5% of magnetite, goethite, or hematite for one week showed the 64, 58, and 36% of reduction of the SBRC (Solubility/Bioavailability Research Consortium)-extractable (bioaccessible) As, respectively. Duration of stabilization more than one week did not show an additional reduction in SBRC-extractable As. Amendment of 5% of magnetite, which showed the highest As stabilization efficiency, was applied to 24 soil samples collected from the same site for one week, and 72% of reduction in the bioaccessible As was observed. The potential carcinogenic human health risk at the study site caused by As was $1.7{\times}10^{-5}$, which could be reduced to $8.1{\times}10^{-6}$ by the amendment of 5% magnetite for one week.

본 연구에서는 비소와 중금속으로 동시에 오염된 광미로부터 토양세척에 의해 비소를 제거하는 실험을 하였다. 중금속 일부도 함께 제거되었다. 최적의 세척효율을 나타내는 세척제의 종류 및 농도, 광미와 세척제의 혼합비, 세척시간 등의 조건을 도출해내었다. 비소를 제거하는데 가장 효과적인 세척제는 옥살산(72% 제거효율)과 인산(65%)이었고, 옥살산(89%)은 Cu를 포함한 중금속을 제거하는데도 매우 효과적이었다. 최적의 세척제 농도는 0.25 M이고, 세척시간은 30분이었다. 토양세척 후 발생하는 폐수를 최소화하고 비소를 효과적으로 제거할 수 있는 광미와 세척제의 적정비율은 1 : 20(질량 : 부피)이었다. 혼합세척제는 단일 세척제와 비교해서 비소제거효율에 차이가 없었으나 Cu와 Zn을 제거하는데 효과가 좋았다.
