In order to provided a theoretical reference for the passive remediation of the farmland contaminated by cadmium and lead, eighteen different materials include lime kind agent, phosphate, iron oxide and clay minerals were used as the soil heavy metal passivators. Results showed that adding the passivators Ca(OH)2, sodium pyrophosphate, CaHPO4 could significantly decrease the available cadmium in soils, and the optimal concentrations were 2%, 1% and 2%, respectively. The passivators FeCl3, NaH2PO4 and CaHPO4 could significantly decrease the available lead in soils, and the optimal concentrations were 3%, 2% and 2%, respectively.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
