Abstract:

This paper presents the results of a batch equilibrium adsorption experiment aimed at determining the retardation factors (R) of four heavy metal ions Ni2+, Zn2+, Cd2+, and Pb2+due to their adsorption on soil particles in an unsaturated zone. The experiments were carried out using clay-loam soil samples collected from Man Xa commune, Yen Phong district and Chau Khe commune, Tu Son city, Bac Ninh province, at two depths of 0÷15 cm and 15÷30 cm from the ground surface. The experimental adsorption procedure is followed by the equilibrium adsorption method. Results obtained showed that the adsorption of the 4 ions on soil particles in the two study areas is linear and followed the Freundlich model. This allows one to estimate the retardation factors of the 4 ions based on a model that includes the equilibrium adsorption coefficient (Kd), soil bulk density ((B) and soil porosity ((). The R values of the four ions in the soils of Man Xa and Chau Khe vary from 2.30÷16.27 depending on the nature of the adsorbate. Ion Pb2+ possesses the highest R value for Man Xa soil. The adsorption of Pb2+ is suggested to be followed by both physical and chemo-adsorption mechanisms, it participated in an ion-exchange process with protonium ion of goethite present in the soil, making the R value of the species to be different.
