Photocatalytic processes assisted by artificial solar light for soil washing effluent treatment

Abstract: Contaminated soil has become a growing issue in recent years. The most common technique used to remove contaminants (such as metals) from the soil is the soil washing process. However, this process produces a final effluent containing chelating agents (i.e., ethylenediaminedisuccinic acid, also known as EDDS) and extracted metals (i.e., Cu, Fe, and Zn) at concentrations higher than discharge limits allowed by the Italian and Brazilian environmental law. Therefore, it is necessary to develop further treatments … Show more

“…For treatment of SWSs, different physico-chemical methods can be used, including adsorption [ 81 , 82 , 83 , 84 ], precipitation [ 85 , 86 , 87 , 88 , 89 ], advanced oxidation processes [ 90 , 91 , 92 , 93 , 94 , 95 ], and membrane technology [ 96 , 97 , 98 ]. Although the latest soil remediation tests were focused on the suitability of novel WAs (DOM, HLS, and SHS from different organic wastes), data about their treatment after soil washing/soil flushing are missing.…”

“…Satyro et al [ 95 ] used TiO 2 photocatalysis for SWS treatment from EDDS soil washing, containing 7.8 mg Cu/L, 10.5 mg Fe/L, and 5.7 mg Zn/L. The combined photocatalytic process can be used for SWS treatment (Cu < 0.05 mg/L, Fe 0.09 mg/L, and Zn 0.8 mg/L).…”

“…Among them, the soil washing process proved to be one of the few permanent contaminated soil remediation treatments [ 6 ]. Therefore, this process can achieve good remediation performances if the operative conditions are carefully selected and optimized [ 7 , 8 , 9 ]. However, in the case of soil washing treatment, the excavation of the contaminated soil is required, and this operation is time-consuming and expensive.…”

“…Therefore the use of a biodegradable agent, such as Ethylenediamine- N , N ′-disuccinic acid (EDDS) [ 17 , 18 ], may be more advisable in order to decrease the potential risk of negative effects on the environmental quality. While the application of EDDS as a washing agent has been widely studied in several scientific research papers [ 9 , 19 , 20 ], its use as flushing agent has been tested in limited cases [ 21 , 22 ], and thus requires further investigation in more detail.…”

“…The involvement of acid solutions and/or chelating agents allows for the removal of both the most and the least mobile fractions of metals in cationic form, potentially achieving very high removal efficiency if the operative conditions of the process are correctly chosen and optimized [4]. The choice of an appropriate washing solution is a critical point, not only to guarantee the required performances, but also to avoid any problems related to its final disposal [5][6][7]. The management of spent washing solutions (SWSs), in fact, makes up a significant cost of the whole remediation process.…”
