Abstract
Releasing and transforming characteristics of heavy metals in the sediments collected from Huludao estuary, China were investigated under varying pH conditions. Equilibrium state of releasing and reabsorbing was reached after 12 h and addition of hydroxyapatite reduced releasing of heavy metals with higher effect on Cu and Pb and to a lesser degree, on Zn and Cd. The hydroxyapatite spiking enhanced transforming of Cu, Zn, Pb and Cd from exchangeable and carbonatic phases to relatively stable phases, especially at pH 4 and 5. These pH values reduced the structural destroy of hydroxyapatite as compared to pH 3 and enhanced the dissolution of metals as compared to pH 7 and 9. The XRD, FTIR and SEM analysis results furthermore corroborated the conclusion that better hydroxyapatite effect could be obtained at pH 4 or 5.
