A sequential leaching procedure was applied to determine the concentrations of the different forms of solid phosphorus, including exchangeable phosphorus(Exc-P) as well as phosphorus associated with iron oxides(Fe-P), with aluminum oxides(Al-P), with apatite(Ca-P) and with the residual fraction(Res-P), as correlated with water content and total organic carbon. The seasonal variations and the vertical distributions of phosphorus species in sediments at both sampling sites demonstrated that: 1) total phosphorus(TP) in summer and winter were ranged between 1 313–2 330, 1 491–2 228 mg/kg in Jintang and 543–2 128, 603–1 175 mg/kg in Neijiang, respectively. It can predicated the pollution of TP in Jintang is serious than that in Neijiang both in summer and winter; 2) total inorganic phosphorus(TIP) was the dominant form of TP; 3) Ca-P was the main chemical forms of TIP in the sediments. Based on the profiles in sediments and bio-available phosphorus data, it revealed that bio-available phosphorus(BAP) represented only a minor portion(0.61%–3.59%) of TP, and the vertical distribution of soluble reactive phosphorus(SRP) in corresponding porewaters was more abundant in the upper layer of the sediment, which suggests that BAP may be converted to non-bioavailable phosphorus in deeper layer of the sediment of this dynamic system.展开更多

In the native sediments, fractionation analysis revealed that 10% of the spiked As（ Ⅲ） remained intact after a 32-day aging experiment and was predominantly adsorbed to the strongly sorbed（NH4H2PO4 extractable） and amorphous Fe oxide bound（H3PO4 extractable） fractions. Kinetic modelling of the experimental results allowed identifying the dominant reaction path for depletion of dissolved As（ Ⅲ） to As（ Ⅲ）absorbed on to the solid phase, followed by oxidation in the solid phase. Arsenite was initially adsorbed primarily to the easily exchangeable fraction（（NH4）2SO4 extractable）, then rapidly transformed into As（V） and redistributed to the strongly sorbed and amorphous Fe oxide bound fractions. Oxidation of As（ Ⅲ） in recalcitrant fractions was less efficient. The iron oxide amendments illustrated the controls that iron oxides can have on As（ Ⅲ） binding and transformation rates. In goethite amended samples As（ Ⅲ） oxidation was faster and primarily occurred in the strongly sorbed and amorphous Fe oxide bound fractions. In these samples,19.3 μg Mn was redistributed（compared to the native sediment） from the easily exchangeable and crystalline Fe oxide bound fractions to the strongly sorbed and amorphous Fe oxide bound fractions, indicating that goethite may act as a catalyst for Mn（Ⅱ） oxidation, thereby producing sorbed Mn（ Ⅲ/Ⅳ ）, which then appears to be involved in rapidly oxidizing As（ Ⅲ）.展开更多
