The role of glomalin, a protein produced by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, in sequestering potentially toxic elements 总被引:21,自引:0,他引:21
González-Chávez MC Carrillo-González R Wright SF Nichols KA 《Environmental pollution (Barking, Essex : 1987)》2004,130(3):317-323
Naturally occurring soil organic compounds stabilize potentially toxic elements (PTEs) such as Cu, Cd, Pb, and Mn. The hypothesis of this work was that an insoluble glycoprotein, glomalin, produced in copious amounts on hyphae of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) sequesters PTEs. Glomalin can be extracted from laboratory cultures of AMF and from soils. Three different experiments were conducted. Experiment 1 showed that glomalin extracted from two polluted soils contained 1.6-4.3 mg Cu, 0.02-0.08 mg Cd, and 0.62-1.12 mg Pb/g glomalin. Experiment 2 showed that glomalin from hyphae of an isolate of Gigaspora rosea sequestered up to 28 mg Cu/g in vitro. Experiment 3 tested in vivo differences in Cu sequestration by Cu-tolerant and non-tolerant isolates of Glomus mosseae colonizing sorghum. Plants were fed with nutrient solution containing 0.5, 10 or 20 microM of Cu. Although no differences between isolates were detected, mean values for the 20 microM Cu level were 1.6, 0.4, and 0.3 mg Cu/g for glomalin extracted from hyphae, from sand after removal of hyphae and from hyphae attached to roots, respectively. Glomalin should be considered for biostabilization leading to remediation of polluted soils. 相似文献

陕北石油污染对土壤球囊霉素含量的影响 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
球囊霉素(Glomalin)是丛枝菌根真菌产生的一种糖蛋白,总球囊霉素代表土壤长期积累的糖蛋白总浓度,易提取球囊霉素则反应近期分泌的浓度值。本研究以陕北川口采油厂油井土壤和安塞原油泄漏土壤为研究样地,采集石油污染土壤样品,测定丛枝菌根真菌孢子密度,土壤总球囊霉素、易提取球囊霉素的含量和土壤理化性质,并进一步分析球囊霉素与各类因子的相关性。结果表明,陕北土壤石油污染为点污染,10个样点中有5个点土壤石油烃含量超过500 mg·kg-1达到污染。由泄漏事故造成的原油污染最高达到16 980.0 mg·kg-1,远远超过日常生产带来的危害。川口油井旁样点0~20 cm土层孢子密度为0.48~4.8个·g-1干土,安塞样点0~20 cm土层孢子密度为2.5~10.1个·g-1干土,川口和安塞都是荒地对照点6点的孢子密度显著较高。川口油井旁样点0~20 cm土层总球囊霉素的含量在1.02~2.73 mg·g-1,0~20 cm土层易提取球囊霉素的含量在0.31~0.85 mg·g-1;安塞样点中0~20 cm土层总球囊霉素的含量在1.05~2.77 mg·g-1,0~20 cm土层中易提取球囊霉素的含量在0.14~0.88 mg·g-1,都是显著低于当地无污染对照土样。土壤总球囊霉素和易提取球囊霉素均与AM真菌孢子密度极显著正相关,并与土壤速效氮、土壤脲酶和酸性磷酸酶活性呈显著正相关。易提取球囊霉素与土壤石油烃浓度负相关,说明近期土壤中丛枝菌根真菌的活性和次生代谢受到石油污染的显著抑制。 相似文献

Chemical speciation and extractability of Zn,Cu and Cd in two contrasting biosolids-amended clay soils 总被引:13,自引:0,他引:13
An incubation experiment was conducted to study the chemical speciation and extractability of three heavy metals in two contrasting biosolids-amended clay soils. One was a paddy soil of pH 7.8 and the other was a red soil of pH 4.7 collected from a fallow field. Anaerobically digested biosolids were mixed with each of the two soils at three rates: 20, 40 and 60 g kg(-1) soil (DM basis), and unamended controls were also prepared. The biosolids-amended and control soils were incubated at 70% of water holding capacity at 25 degrees C for 50 days. Separate subsamples were extracted with three single extractants and a three-step sequential extraction procedure representing acetic acid (HOAc)-soluble, reducible and oxidisable fractions to investigate the extractability and speciation of the heavy metals. As would be expected, there were good relationships between biosolids application rate and metal concentrations in the biosolids-amended soils. The three heavy metals had different extractabilities and chemical speciation in the two biosolids-amended soils. Ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid extracted more Cu, Zn and Cd than did the other two single extractants. The oxidisable fraction was the major fraction for Cu in both biosolids-amended soils and the HOAc-soluble and reducible fractions accounted for most of the Zn. In contrast, Cd was present mainly in the reducible fraction. The results are discussed in relation to the mobility and bioavailability of the metals in polluted soils. 相似文献

A modified glass bead compartment cultivation system for studies on nutrient and trace metal uptake by arbuscular mycorrhiza 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11
A modified glass bead compartment cultivation system is described in which glass beads continue to be used in the hyphal compartment but are replaced by coarse river sand in the compartments for host plant roots and mycorrhizal hyphae. Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) associations were established using two host plant species, maize (Zea mays L.) and red clover (Trifolium pratense L.) and two AM fungi, Glomus mosseae and G. versiforme. When the standard and modified cultivation systems were compared, the new method yielded much more fungal tissue in the hyphal compartment. Using G. versiforme as the fungal symbiont, up to 30 mg of fungal dry matter (DM) was recovered from the hyphal compartment of mycorrhizal maize and about 6 mg from red clover. Multi-element analysis was conducted on samples of host plant roots and shoots and on harvested fungal biomass. Concentrations of P, Cu and Zn were much higher in the fungal biomass than in the roots or shoots of the host plants but fungal concentrations of K, Ca, Mg, Fe and Mn were similar to or lower than those in the plants. There were also significant differences in nutrient concentrations between the two AM fungi and these may be related to differences in their proportions of extraradical mycelium to spores. The high affinity of the fungal mycelium for Zn was very striking and is discussed in relation to the potential use of arbuscular mycorrhiza in the phytoremediation of Zn-polluted soils. 相似文献

A single microwave extraction procedure was conducted to investigate the bioavailability of rare earth elements (REEs) by using different extractants of 0.05 M EDTA, 0.10 M CH3COOH, 0.10 M HCl, and 0.05 M CaCl2. The experimental conditions of heating time and microwave power were optimized. A microwave power of 60% and extraction time of 30 min were adopted. Compared to the conventional single extraction schemes reported in the literature, the recommended technique shortened the operational time, simplified the experimental task, improved the precision, and obtained consistent results with those obtained by using the conventional methods. In addition, the suggested microwave extraction method has been successfully used to evaluate the bioavailability of REEs in soils. Soil samples collected from 15 sites in China were extracted by four different extractants with microwave ancillary. Extractable REEs from soils were well correlated with REEs contents in shoots of wheat (Troticum aestivum L.) under the greenhouse conditions. The correlation coefficients were 0.6514-0.8996, 0.4522-0.7783, 0.6506-0.8671, 0.4869-0.7014 between the extractable REEs in soils and their concentrations in wheat shoots for the extractants of CaCl2, EDTA, CH3COOH and HCl, respectively. 相似文献

Survival strategies of plants associated with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi on toxic mine tailings 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
A field survey of metal concentrations and arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) components of plants growing on five mining sites was conducted in Chenzhou City, Hunan Province, Southern China and a control site in Hong Kong. Significant differences were observed in the average concentrations of total heavy metals (Pb, Zn, Cu, Cd) and one metalloid (As) in contaminated soils compared with the control site. Gramineae and Compositae were the dominant plant families growing on mine tailings, with Chrysanthemum moritolium (common chrysanthemum), Cynodon dactylon (Bermuda grass), Miscanthus florodulus (Sword grass) and Pteris vittata (Ladder brake fern) commonly found at all sites. AM fungal colonization was detected in most of the plants. Comparing the four common plant species, three components of mycorrhizal colonization (arbuscules, vesicles and coiled hyphae) were found in the roots of C. dactylon and P. vittata growing at Do Shun Long (DSL) mine site. Concentrations of As in fronds were 24-fold higher than in roots of P. vittata with the highest mycorrhizal colonization rate (73%) among all sampling sites. Extensive mycorrhizal colonization (85%) was also recorded in the roots of C. dactylon with As accumulation 57 times higher than in shoots. The four common plants found in metal contaminated sites had developed different strategies for survival in the contaminated sites with the aid of indigenous AM fungi. 相似文献

Ecotypes of Sorghastrum nutans from a naturally metalliferous serpentine grassland and the tallgrass prairie were assessed for Ni tolerance and their utility in remediation of Ni-polluted soils. Plants were inoculated with serpentine arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) root inoculum or whole soil microbial communities, originating from either prairie or serpentine, to test their effects on plant performance in the presence of Ni. Serpentine plants had marginally higher Ni tolerance as indicated by higher survival. Ni reduced plant biomass and AM root colonization for both ecotypes. The serpentine AM fungi and whole microbial community treatments decreased plant biomass relative to uninoculated plants, while the prairie microbial community had no effect. Differences in how the soil communities affect plant performance were not reflected in patterns of root colonization by AM fungi. Thus, serpentine plants may be suited for reclamation of Ni-polluted soils, but AM fungi that occur on serpentine do not improve Ni tolerance. 相似文献

Evaluation of various chemical extraction methods to estimate plant-available arsenic in mine soils 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Elevated levels of bioavailable As in mining soils, agricultural areas and human habitats may cause potential toxicity to human health, plants and microbe. Therefore, it is essential to determine proper soil chemical extraction method in order to estimate plant-available As in mining soils and protect agricultural and environmental ecosystems by evaluation of environmental risk and implementation of remediation measures. In this study, six single soil chemical extraction processes and four-step sequential chemical extraction protocol were used to determine the relative distribution of As in different chemical forms of soils and their correlations with total As in plants grown in mining areas and greenhouse experiments. The strongest relationship between As determined by single soil chemical extraction and As in plant biomass was found for sodium acetate and mixed acid extractant. The mean percent of total As extracted was: ammonium oxalate (41%)>hydroxylamine hydrochloride (32%)>mixed acid (16%)>phosphate (6%)>sodium acetate (1.2%)>water (0.13%). This trend suggests that most of the As in these soils is inside the soil mineral matrix and can only be released when iron oxides and other minerals are dissolved by the stronger chemical extractant. Single soil chemical extraction methods using sodium acetate and mixed acids, that extract As fractions complexed to soil particles or on the surface of mineral matrix of hydrous oxides of Fe, Mn and Al (exchangeable+sorbed forms) can be employed to estimate and predict the bioavailable As fraction for plant uptake in mining affected soils. In sequential chemical extraction methods, ammonium nitrate and hydroxylamine hydrochloride may be used to provide closer estimates of plant-available As in mining soils. 相似文献

The impact of zero-valent iron nanoparticles upon soil microbial communities is context dependent 总被引:3,自引:1,他引:2

Nanosized zero-valent iron (nZVI) is an effective land remediation tool, but there remains little information regarding its impact upon and interactions with the soil microbial community. nZVI stabilised with sodium carboxymethyl cellulose was applied to soils of three contrasting textures and organic matter contents to determine impacts on soil microbial biomass, phenotypic (phospholipid fatty acid (PLFA)), and functional (multiple substrate-induced respiration (MSIR)) profiles. The nZVI significantly reduced microbial biomass by 29 % but only where soil was amended with 5 % straw. Effects of nZVI on MSIR profiles were only evident in the clay soils and were independent of organic matter content. PLFA profiling indicated that the soil microbial community structure in sandy soils were apparently the most, and clay soils the least, vulnerable to nZVI suggesting a protective effect imparted by clays. Evidence of nZVI bactericidal effects on Gram-negative bacteria and a potential reduction of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi are presented. Data imply that the impact of nZVI on soil microbial communities is dependent on organic matter content and soil mineral type. Thereby, evaluations of nZVI toxicity on soil microbial communities should consider context. The reduction of AM fungi following nZVI application may have implications for land remediation. 相似文献

A greenhouse experiment was carried out in order to investigate the effects of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi inoculation and the use of composted olive waste (COW) in the establishment of Tetraclinis articulata and soil properties in a heavy metal-polluted soil. The treatments assayed were as follows: AM?+?0 % COW, AM?+?1 % COW, and AM?+?3 % COW. The higher doses of COW in combination with AM fungi increased shoot and root biomass production of T. articulata by 96 and 60 %, respectively. These treatments trended to improve the soil properties evaluated, highlighting the C compounds and N as well as the microbiological activities. In relation to the metal translocation in T. articulata, doses of COW applied decreased the Cr, Ni, and Pb contents in shoot, as well as Cr and As in root, although the most of them reached low levels and far from phytotoxic. The COW amendment aided Glomus mosseae-inoculated T. articulata plants to thrive in contaminated soil, mainly through an improvement in both nutrients uptake, mainly P and soil microbial function. In addition, the combined use of AM fungi plus COW could be a feasible strategy to be incorporated in phytoremediation programs because it promotes soil properties, a better performance of plants for supporting the stress in heavy metal-contaminated soils derived from the mining process, and also can be a good way for olive-mill waste disposal. 相似文献

Zinc adsorption was studied in the soils of three nuclear power plant sites of India. 65Zn was used as a radiotracer to study the sorption characteristics of Zn(II). The sorption of zinc was determined at 25 and 45 degrees C at pH 7.8+/-0.2 in the solution of 0.01 M Ca(NO3)2 as supporting electrolyte. The sorption data was tested both in Freundlich and Langmuir isotherms and could be described satisfactorily. The effect of organic matter and other physico-chemical properties on the uptake of zinc was also studied in all the soil samples. The results showed that the cation exchange capacity, organic matter, pH and clay content were the main contributors to zinc sorption in these soils. The adsorption maximum was found to be higher in the soil on Kakarpara Atomic Power Plant sites soils having high organic matter and clay content. The zinc supply parameters of the soils are also discussed. In the desorption studies, the sequential extraction of the adsorbed zinc from soils showed that the diethylene triamine penta acetic acid extracted maximum amount of adsorbed zinc than CaCl2 and Mg(NO3)2. The zinc sorption on the soil and amount of zinc retention after extractants desorption shows a positively correlation with vermiculite and smectite mineral content present in the clay fraction of the soil. The amount desorbed by strong base (NaOH) and demineralised water was almost negligible from soils of all the sites, whereas the desorption by strong acid (HNO3) was 75-96% of the adsorbed zinc. 相似文献

Evaluation of extractants for estimation of the phytoavailable trace metals in soils 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Despite its environmental (and financial) importance, there is no agreement in the literature as to which extractant most accurately estimates the phytoavailability of trace metals in soils. A large data set was taken from the literature, and the effectiveness of various extractants to predict the phytoavailability of Cd, Zn, Ni, Cu, and Pb examined across a range of soil types and contamination levels. The data suggest that generally, the total soil trace metal content, and trace metal concentrations determined by complexing agents (such as the widely used DTPA and EDTA extractants) or acid extractants (such as 0.1M HCl and the Mehlich 1 extractant) are only poorly correlated to plant phytoavailability. Whilst there is no consensus, it would appear that neutral salt extractants (such as 0.01 M CaCl(2) and 0.1 M NaNO(3)) provide the most useful indication of metal phytoavailability across a range of metals of interest, although further research is required. 相似文献

The radio-labile fraction of cadmium, in a wide range of contaminated soils, was studied in relation to fractions of cadmium defined by traditional extraction procedures. The proportion of labile Cd which was exchangeable was highly pH-dependent, but above pH 5 only about 5% of labile Cd was extractable with 1 m KNO(3). By contrast, EDTA released more than the labile Cd pool into solution, suggesting that significant dissolution of metal adsorbents may occur when chelating agents are utilised as trace metal extractants. The effect of time in immobilising Cd added to soil was also illustrated by following changes in the radio-labile Cd concentration. In calcareous soils, an instantaneous 'fixation' reaction as well as a time-dependent transfer to non-labile pools was identified. It is suggested that radio-labile Cd represents a relatively unambiguous assessment of the chemical and biological reactivity of Cd in soil compared with the fractions isolated by chemical extractants. 相似文献

Comparison of a rhizosphere-based method with other one-step extraction methods for assessing the bioavailability of soil metals to wheat 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
There is no method recognized as a universal approach for evaluation of bioavailability of heavy metals in soil. Based on the simulation of the rhizosphere soil conditions and integration of the combined effects of root-soil interactions as a whole, a rhizosphere-based method has been proposed. Wet fresh rhizosphere soil was extracted by low-molecular-weight organic acids (LMWOAs) to fractionate metal fractions of soil pools, which were then correlated with the metal contents of wheat roots and shoots. The rhizosphere-based method was compared with other one-step extraction methods using DTPA, EDTA, CaCl2, and NaNO3 as extractants and the first step of the Community Bureau of Reference (BCR) method. Simple correlation and stepwise multiple regression analysis were used for the comparison. Simple correlation indicated that the extractable Cu, Zn, Cr, and Cd of soils by the rhizosphere-based method were significantly correlated with the metal contents of wheat roots. For DTPA, BCR1 and EDTA methods there was a relatively poor correlation between the extractable Cu, Zn and Cd of soil and metal contents of wheat roots. Stepwise multiple regression analysis revealed that the equation of the rhizosphere-based method was the simplest one, and no soil properties variables needed to be added. In contrast, the equations of other one-step extraction methods were more complicated, and soil properties variables needed to be entered. The most distinct feature of the rhizosphere-based method was that the recommended method was suitable for acidic, neutral and near alkaline soils. However, the DTPA and EDTA extraction methods were suitable for calcareous soils only-or-only for acidic soils. The CaCl2, and NaNO3 extraction methods were only suitable for exchangeable metals. In short, the rhizosphere-based method was the most robust approach for evaluation of bioavailability of heavy metals in soils to wheat. 相似文献

Heap leaching of Pb and Zn contaminated soil using ozone/UV treatment of EDTA extractants 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The feasibility of a novel EDTA-based soil heap leaching method with treatment and reuse of extractants in a closed process loop was evaluated on a laboratory scale. Ozone and UV irradiation were used for oxidative decomposition of EDTA-metal complexes in extractants from Pb (1243 mg kg(-1)) and Zn (1190 mg kg(-1)) contaminated soil. Released metals were absorbed in a commercial metal absorbent Slovakite. Six-consecutive additions of 2.5 mmol kg(-1) EDTA (total 15 mmol kg(-1) EDTA) removed 49.6 +/- 0.6% and 19.7 +/- 1.7% of initial total Pb and Zn from soil (4.6 kg) packed in 22 cm high columns. The efficiency of extraction was similar to small-scale simulations of heap leaching (15 0 g of soil), where EDTA used in the same manner removed 49.7 +/- 1.0% and 13.7 +/- 0.4% of Pb and Zn. The new heap leaching method produced discharge extractant with fairly low final concentrations of Pb, Zn and EDTA (1.98 +/- 2.17 mg l(-1), 4.55 +/- 2.36 mg l(-1), and 0.05 +/- 0.04 mM, respectively), which could presumably be reduced even further with continuation of treatment. The results of our study indicate that for soils contaminated primarily with Pb, treating the EDTA extractants with ozone/UV and reuse of extractants enables efficient soil heap leaching with very little or no wastewater generation, easy control over emissions, and lowers the requirements for process water. 相似文献

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi mediated uptake of lanthanum in Chinese milk vetch (Astragalus sinicus L.) 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A glasshouse experiment was carried out to study the effect of mycorrhizal formation by Gigaspora margarita, Glomus intraradices or Acaulospora laevis on plant growth and lanthanum (La) uptake of Astragalus sinicus L. in soils spiked with La at five levels (0, 1, 5, 10 and 20 mg kg(-1)). La application decreased mycorrhizal infection frequency and activity of fungal succinate dehydrogenase and alkaline phosphatase. Increasing La concentrations in soil led to increased La accumulation in tissues of both mycorrhizal and non-mycorrhizal plants, but inoculation with Gig. margarita or G. intraradices reduced La concentrations in shoots and roots at higher concentrations of La in the soil. Plant biomass and P concentrations in shoots and roots were reduced by La application, but increased by inoculation with Gig. margarita or G. intraradices. The results showed that appropriate AM fungi colonization could be effective in alleviating La toxicity in A. sinicus. 相似文献

The effectiveness of two microbiologically treated agrowastes [dry olive cake (DOC) and/or sugar beet (SB)] on plant growth, soil enzymatic activities and other soil characteristics was determined in a natural soil from a desertified area. Dorycnium pentaphyllum, a legume plant adapted to stress situations, was the test plant to evaluate the effect of inoculation of native arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi and/or Yarowia lipolytica (a dry soil adapted yeast) on amended and non-amended soils. Plant growth and nutrition, symbiotic developments and soil enzymatic activities were limited in non-amended soil where microbial inoculations did not improve plant development. The lack of nodules formation and AM colonization can explain the limited plant growth in this natural soil. The effectiveness and performance of inocula applied was only evident in amended soils. AM colonization and spores number in natural soil were increased by amendments and the inoculation with Y. lipolytica promoted this value. The effect of the inoculations on plant N-acquisition was only important in AM-inoculated plants growing in SB medium. Enzymatic activities as urease and protease activities were particularly increased in DOC amended soil meanwhile dehydrogenase activity was greatest in treatments inoculated with Y. lipolytica in SB added soil. The biological activities in rhizosphere of agrowaste amended soil, used as indices of changes in soil properties and fertility, were affected not only by the nature of amendments but also by the inoculant applied. All these results show that the lignocellulosic agrowastes treated with a selected microorganism and its further interaction with beneficial microbial groups (native AM fungi and/or Y. lipolytica) is a useful tool to modify soil physico-chemical, biological and fertility properties that enhance the plant performance probably by making nutrients more available to plants. 相似文献

Triclopyr is a commonly used herbicide in the control of woody plants and can exhibit toxic effects to soil microorganisms. However, the impact on soils invaded by plant exotics has not yet been addressed. Here, we present the results of an 18-month field study conducted to evaluate the impact of triclopyr on the structure of fungal and bacterial communities in soils invaded by Acacia dealbata Link, through the use of denature gradient gel electrophoresis. After triclopyr application, analyses of bacterial fingerprints suggested a change in the structure of the soil bacterial community, whereas the structure of the soil fungal community remained unaltered. Bacterial density and F:B ratio values changed across the year but were not altered due to herbicide spraying. On the contrary, fungal diversity was increased in plots sprayed with triclopyr 5 months after the first application. Richness and diversity (H´) of both bacteria and fungi were not modified after triclopyr application. 相似文献

An environment-friendly and cost-effective extraction method has been studied for the removal of arsenic from contaminated soil. A yellow-brown forest soil was contaminated with arsenic(V) and used as a model soil. Among various potassium and sodium salts, potassium phosphate was most effective in extracting arsenic, attaining more than 40% extraction in the pH range of 6–8 with minimum damage to the soil properties. Exchange mechanism is proposed for the extraction of arsenic from soil by phosphate. Sequential extraction shows that phosphate is effective in extracting arsenic of Al- and Fe-bound forms. Arsenic of residual form was not extracted. Arsenic was efficiently extracted by phosphate solution of pH 6.0 at 300 mM phosphate concentration and at 40°C. 相似文献

Selenium extractability from a contaminated fine soil fraction: implication on soil cleanup 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
Two batches of fine soil fraction of an acidic soil were deliberately contaminated with selenite (Se(IV)) and selenate (Se(VI)), respectively, and aged for more than 220 days. Speciation analysis using continuous flow-through hydride generation atomic absorption spectrometry (HGAAS) indicated that the species were predominant in their respective aged soils. A selective sequential extraction scheme was employed to fractionate the Se retained in the soils into six fractions of varying retentions. Abilities of various chemical reagents in extracting the Se in the two soil batches were then evaluated. The reagents investigated were sodium salts such as sodium chloride (NaCl), sodium sulfate (Na2SO4), sodium carbonate (Na2CO3), and sodium phosphate (Na3PO4), and two oxidants, namely, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and potassium permanganate (KMnO4). It was found that NaCl, Na2SO4, and Na2CO3 could only extract the exchangeable fraction of Se, while Na3PO4 could extract the exchangeable and strongly-bound fractions. Selenate was extracted more than Se(IV) by the salts. The kinetics of Se(IV) extraction by Na3PO4 could be best described by the Elovich model, while the Ritchie second-order model was the most appropriate to describe Se(VI) extraction. Efficiencies of the oxidants in Se(IV) extraction highly depended on their applied dosages. Both H2O2 and KMnO4 were able to extract greater than 93% of total Se, and therefore were significantly more effective than the salts in Se(IV) extraction. 相似文献
