Ion exchange properties of manganese and iron minerals in oceanic micronodules     

G. V. Novikov  V. N. Sval’nov  O. Yu. Bogdanova  A. V. Sivtsov 《Lithology and Mineral Resources》2010,45(5):410-424

The results of experimental studies of ion exchange properties of manganese and iron minerals in micronodules (MN) from diverse bioproductive zones of the World Ocean are considered. It was found that the sorption behavior of these minerals is similar to that of ore minerals from ferromanganese nodules (FMN) and low-temperature hydrothermal crusts. The exchange complex of minerals in the MN includes the major (Na⁺, K⁺, Ca²⁺, Mg²⁺, and Mn²⁺) and the subordinate (Ni²⁺, Cu²⁺, Co²⁺, Pb²⁺, and others) cations. Reactivity of theses cations increases from Pb²⁺ and Co²⁺ to Na⁺ and Ca²⁺. Exchange capacity of MN minerals increases from the alkali to heavy metal cations. Capacity of iron and manganese minerals in the oceanic MN increases in the following series: goethite < goethite + birnessite < todorokite + asbolane-buserite + birnessite < asbolane-buserite + birnessite < birnessite + asbolane-buserite < birnessite + vernadite Fe-vernadite + Mn-feroxyhyte. The data obtained supplement the available information on the ion exchange properties of oceanic ferromanganese sediments and refine the role of sorption processes in the redistribution of metal cations at the bottom (ooze) water-sediment interface during the MN formation and growth.  相似文献   

Metal cation exchange reactions of ore minerals in Fe–Mn crusts of the Marcus Wake Rise (Pacific Ocean) in aqueous–salt solutions     

G. V. Novikov  O. Yu. Bogdanova  M. E. Melnikov  A. N. Drozdova  N. V. Lobus  N. A. Shulga 《Doklady Earth Sciences》2017,477(2):1414-1418

It is shown that the reaction ability of metal cations of ore minerals in Fe–Mn crusts of the Marcus Wake Rise increases in the following manner: (Co²⁺ < Cu²⁺ < Ni²⁺) < (Mg²⁺ < Mn²⁺ < K⁺ ≈ Ca²⁺ ≈ Na⁺). The composition of the exchange complex of the ore minerals is constant and includes these metal cations. Ca²⁺ and Na⁺ are major contributors to the exchange capacity of the ore minerals. The capacity of the ore minerals by cations of alkali and base metals is 0.43–0.60 and 2.08–2.70 mg-equiv/g, respectively. The exchange capacity of the ore minerals by cations of base metals increases linearly with the increase in the MnO₂ content of the crust and does not depend on the geographical locations of the Marcus Wake guyots.  相似文献   

Ion exchange properties of oceanic ferromanganese nodules and enclosing pelagic sediments     

G. V. Novikov  I. O. Murdmaa 《Lithology and Mineral Resources》2007,42(2):137-167

Results of the experimental study of ion exchange properties of deep-sea pelagic sediments and related ferromanganese nodules (FMN) are considered. The exchange complex of sediments and nodules includes Na⁺, K⁺, Ca²⁺, and Mg²⁺ cations. The FMNs also include Mn²⁺ cations. Series of reactivity of metal cations during exchange reactions in different types of pelagic clayey sediments and diagenetic-sedimentary FMN are compiled. Series of exchange capacity of the sediments and FMN for alkali and heavy metal cations are also presented. The exchange capacity of FMN is always higher than that of enclosing sediments. Sediments are characterized by reversible equivalent sorption of cations of both alkali and heavy metals. Irrespective of the mineral composition, the FMNs are characterized by the reversible equivalent sorption of alkali metal cations, whereas sorption of heavy metal cations is only partly reversible. More over, alkali metal cations do not replace heavy metal cations. The results obtained refine the role of ion exchange processes in the redistribution of heavy metal cations at the water-bottom sediment interface during the diagenetic-sedimentary formation of ferromanganese nodules.  相似文献   

Sorption of heavy metal cations by low-temperature deposits of Pacific hydrothermal fields     

G. V. Novikov  I. V. Vikent’ev  O. Yu. Bogdanova 《Geology of Ore Deposits》2006,48(4):304-325

Cation exchange reactions with participation of heavy metals Mn, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Cd, Ba, and Pb were studed in oceanic low-temperature hydrothermal deposits of various mineral compositions and in hydrogenic Fe-Mn crusts. Individual minerals and their assemblages differ significantly in absorptive capacity, which increases in the following order: hematite ? Si-protoferrihydrite < protoferrihydrite < geothite < nontronite ? Fe-vernadite + Mn-feroxyhyte < Fe-free vernadite < bernessite + Fe-free vernadite < bernessite; i.e., it successively increases from the mineral with a coordination type of lattice to minerals with a layer-type structure. The exchange complex of all minerals includes Na⁺, K⁺, Ca²⁺, and Mg²⁺, i.e., the main cations of seawater. In Mn minerals, Mn²⁺ is the main exchange component. The contribution of all the mentioned cations to the exchange capacity of minerals is as high as 90–98%. The highest absorptive capacity among the examined low-temperature oceanic deposits is characteristic of hydrothermal Mn minerals. Their capacity exceeds substantially that of hydrothermal oxides, hydroxides, Fe-aluminosilicates, and hydrogenic Fe-Mn minerals. The absorptive capacity of all examined Mn minerals relative to heavy metals increases in the same order: Ni < Zn < Cd < Mn < Co < Pb < Cu.  相似文献   

Modelling Zn(II) sorption onto clayey sediments using a multi-site ion-exchange model     

E. Tertre  C. Beaucaire  N. Coreau  A. Juery 《Applied Geochemistry》2009

In environmental studies, it is necessary to be able to predict the behaviour of contaminants in more or less complex physico-chemical contexts. The improvement of this prediction partly depends on establishing thermodynamic models that can describe the behaviour of these contaminants and, in particular, the sorption reactions on mineral surfaces. In this way, based on the mass action law, it is possible to use surface complexation models and ion exchange models. Therefore, the aim of this study is (i) to develop an ion-exchange model able to describe the sorption of transition metal onto pure clay minerals and (ii) to test the ability of this approach to predict the sorption of these elements onto natural materials containing clay minerals (i.e. soils/sediments) under various chemical conditions. This study is focused on the behaviour of Zn(II) in the presence of clayey sediments. Considering that clay minerals are cation exchangers containing multiple sorption sites, it is possible to interpret the sorption of Zn(II), as well as competitor cations, by ion-exchange equilibria with the clay minerals. This approach is applied with success to interpret the experimental data obtained previously in the Zn(II)–H⁺–Na⁺–montmorillonite system. The authors’ research team has already studied the behaviour of Na⁺, K⁺, Ca²⁺ and Mg²⁺ versus pH in terms of ion exchange onto pure montmorillonite, leading to the development of a thermodynamic database including the exchange site concentrations associated with montmorillonite and the selectivity coefficients of Na⁺, K⁺, Ca²⁺, Mg²⁺, and Zn²⁺ versus H⁺.  相似文献

The uptake of cobalt into ferromanganese nodules,soils, and synthetic manganese (IV) oxides     

Roger G Burns 《Geochimica et cosmochimica acta》1976,40(1):95-102

Strong enrichments of cobalt occur in marine manganese nodules, soils, wads, and natural and synthetic minerals such as hollandite, cryptomelane, psilomelane, lithiophorite, birnessite, and δ-MnO₂. Previously, it was suggested that Co³⁺ ions in these minerals replace either Mn³⁺ or substitute for Fe³⁺ in incipient goethite epitaxially intergrown with δ-MnO₂. Neither of these interpretations is now considered to be satisfactory on account of the large discrepancy of ionic radius between octahedrally coordinated low-spin Co³⁺ and high-spin Mn³⁺ or Fe³⁺ in oxide structures. The close agreement between the ionic radii of Co³⁺ and Mn⁴⁺ suggests that some cobalt substitutes for Mn⁴⁺ ions in edge-shared [MnO₆] octahedra in many manganese(IV) oxide mineral structures. It is proposed that hydrated cations, including Co²⁺ ions, are initially adsorbed on to the surfaces of certain Mn(IV) oxides in the vicinity of essential vacancies found in the chains or sheets of edge-shared [MnO₆] octahedra. Subsequently, fixation of cobalt takes place as a result of oxidation of adsorbed Co²⁺ ions by Mn⁴⁺ and replacement of the displaced manganese by low-spin Co³⁺ ions in the [MnO₆] octahedra or vacancies.  相似文献   

The impacts of common ions on the adsorption of heavy metal   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

Jiang He  Hong-Xi Xue  Chang-Wei Lü  Qing-Yun Fan  Ying Liang  Ying Sun  Li-Li Shen  Saruli Bai 《Environmental Geology》2009,58(7):1499-1508

Researches on the impact of common ions onto sediments are of great importance for the study of the heavy metal adsorption mechanisms. Considering the surface sediments from the relatively clean reach in the Baotou section of the Yellow River as the adsorbent, this work presents the impacts of common ions (Na⁺, Mg²⁺, K⁺, Ca²⁺, Cl⁻, SO₄ ²⁻, and NH₄ ⁺) on heavy metals (Cu²⁺, Zn²⁺, Cd²⁺, and Pb²⁺) adsorption. The experimental results reveal that the adsorptive capacities of the heavy metals are controlled by different adsorption mechanisms in different ion concentration ranges. With the increase of the ionic strength, the adsorption of the heavy metals increases for the compression of the electric double layer, whereas decreases for the decreasing of the ionic activities of the heavy metals. The competitive adsorption and complexations between the heavy metals and common ions are also important factors controlling the heavy metal adsorption. According to the experimental results and the real concentration of common ions in the Baotou section of the Yellow River, the increase of the concentrations of Na⁺, Mg²⁺, K⁺, and Ca²⁺ would cause the increase of Zn²⁺ adsorption and reduce the Zn pollution. The NH₄ ⁺ from the industrial discharge of the tributaries has a strong impact on the heavy metal adsorption.  相似文献   

Major ion composition and seasonal variation in the Lesser Himalayan lake: case of Begnas Lake of the Pokhara Valley, Nepal     

Udhab Raj Khadka  AL. Ramanathan 《Arabian Journal of Geosciences》2013,6(11):4191-4206

The Begnas Lake in the Pokhara Valley is one of the threatened habitats in Nepal. The major ion chemistry explains the status of most of the inorganic nutrients and their possible sources. However, the earlier studies mostly cover limnological investigations, and phytoplankton and zooplankton diversity. Thus, the present study has been conducted to investigate the geochemical processes and to examine the seasonal variation of chemical composition within Begnas Lake. The results showed that SO ₄ ^2- , PO ₄ ^3- , and NO ₃ ^- increased compared with the previous values. The domination of Ca²⁺, Mg²⁺, and HCO ₃ ^- explains the influence of carbonate weathering on the major ion concentration. In general, pH and dissolved oxygen decreased with the depth of water-column, while electric conductivity, total dissolved solids, HCO ₃ ^- , Cl^-, H₄SiO₄, K⁺, Mg²⁺, Ca²⁺, Mn²⁺, and Fe increased. Among the cations, the predominance of Ca²⁺ and Mg²⁺ as characterized by high (>0.6) (Ca²⁺ + Mg²⁺)/(Tz⁺) and (>0.8) (Ca²⁺ + Mg²⁺)/(Na⁺ + K⁺) equivalent ratios, also suggests prevalence of carbonate weathering. The low value of (Na⁺ + K⁺)/Tz⁺ ratio shows deficiency of Na⁺ and K⁺, suggesting low contribution of cations via aluminosilicate weathering. The C-ratio suggests a proton source derived both from oxidation of sulfide and dissolution and dissociation of atmospheric CO₂ during different seasons. Though the major hydro-chemical parameters are within permissible limit, the increase in trophic state of the lake suggests that inherent biogeochemical processes make the limiting nutrients available, rendering eutrophic effect. Therefore, further comprehensive studies incorporating sediment–water interaction ought to be carried out to explain the ongoing phenomena and curb the eutrophication process in the lake.  相似文献   

Cation-exchange characteristics of Amazon River suspended sediment and its reaction with seawater     

Frederick L Sayles  Paul C Mangelsdorf 《Geochimica et cosmochimica acta》1979,43(5):767-779

The cation-exchange characteristics of Amazon River suspended sediment have been studied in order to determine the contribution of exchangeable cations to the geochemical fluxes from the river. Sediment samples were obtained throughout most of the Amazon Basin. The range of exchangeable cation compositions is very narrow in the river and in seawater as well. In river water, the exchangeable cation complement (equivalent basis, exclusive of H⁺) is 80% Ca²⁺, 17% Mg²⁺, 3% Na⁺ plus K⁺. In seawater Na⁺ and Mg²⁺ are about equal (38%) while Ca²⁺ ~ 15% and K⁺ ~ 9%.On reaction with seawater, river suspended sediment took up an amount of Na⁺ equal to nearly one-third of the dissolved river load, as well as amounts corresponding to 15–20% of the dissolved fluvial K⁺ and Mg²⁺. These estimates reflect an unusually high suspended-sediment:dissolved-solids ratio of 6.4 at the time of sampling. At a more representative world average ratio of four, the uptake of Na⁺ would be 20% of the dissolved fluvial load, and that for K⁺ and Mg²⁺ about 10%. Over the annual cycle of the Amazon, it is estimated that ion exchange has a still smaller effect, as a consequence of the low average suspended-solids:dissolved-solids ratio of 1.7.Variations in the ratio $\text{X}{}_{\mathrm{Ca}}\text{X}{}_{\mathrm{Mg}}$, the equivalent fraction of exchangeable Ca²⁺ and Mg²⁺, throughout the river, can be described by a single isotherm. This same isotherm accurately describes the distribution of exchangeable Ca²⁺ and Mg²⁺ on sediment equilibrated with seawater, despite that a high proportion of exchange sites is occupied by Na⁺ and K⁺.  相似文献   

Importance of different types of marine particles for the scavenging of heavy metals in the deep-sea bottom water     

《Applied Geochemistry》2003,18(5):693-710

In experiments of 7 days duration using voltammetric and radiotracer measurement techniques, the role of different particle types in the sorption of dissolved metal species in a disturbed deep-sea bottom seawater system were investigated. Resuspension of oxic to suboxic surface sediment into the bottom water in the deep sea (either by natural events or industrial activities like Mn nodule mining) has been shown to be followed quickly by scavenging of dissolved heavy metals, e.g. released from interstitial water, on the resuspended particles. Compared to other deep-sea particles (like clay minerals, calcite and apatite), Mn and Fe oxides and oxyhydroxides were found to be by far the most important phases in scavenging many dissolved heavy metals. Only Pb was sorbed strongly on all particles used, with highest affinity to carbonate fluorapatite. Caesium⁺ was significantly scavenged only by clay minerals like illite. The sorption experiments support a simple electrostatic model: Hydrated cations and labile cationic chloro-complexes in seawater like Mn²⁺, MnCl⁺, Co²⁺, Ni²⁺, Cu²⁺, Zn²⁺, Ba²⁺, and PbCl⁺, are preferentially adsorbed or ion-exchanged on the negatively charged surfaces of Mn oxides. In contrast, oxyanions and neutrally or negatively charged complexes like HVO₄²⁻, MoO₄²⁻, HAsO₄²⁻, UO₂(CO₃)₂²⁻, and PbCO₃⁰ associate with neutral to slightly positive amphoteric Fe oxyhydroxide particles. Metals forming strong chloro-complexes in seawater like Cd (CdCl₂⁰), are less readily sorbed by oxides than others. A comparison of the results of voltammetric and radiotracer techniques revealed that after fast sorption within the first hour, isotopic exchange dominated reactions on MnO₂-rich particles in the following days. This was especially pronounced for Mn and Co which are bound to the Mn oxide surface via a redox transformation.  相似文献

Reversible ion-exchange fixation of cesium-137 leading to mobilization from reservoir sediments     

David W. Evans  James J. Alberts  Roy A. Clark 《Geochimica et cosmochimica acta》1983,47(6):1041-1049

The radioactive fission product, ¹³⁷Cs, has been observed to mobilize from bottom sediments of two South Carolina reservoirs during summer thermal stratification and hypolimnetic anoxia. Mobilization is attributed to ion-exchange displacement of ¹³⁷Cs from sediments by cations such as NH⁺₄, Fe⁺² and Mn⁺² released under anaerobic conditions.Three types of ¹³⁷Cs binding sites to sediment clay minerals are identified: 1) surface and planar sites from which ¹³⁷Cs is generally exchangeable by all cations studied (Na⁺, NH⁺₄, H⁺, Cs⁺, Ca⁺², Mg⁺², Fe⁺², and Mn⁺²); 2) wedge sites where ¹³⁷Cs exchange is sterically limited to cations of similar size and charge (NH⁺₄, Cs⁺, K⁺, and perhaps H₃O⁺); 3) interlayer sites from which ¹³⁷Cs is not readily exchanged. More than 15 years after final ¹³⁷Cs inputs, the reservoir sediments we studied showed the following percentage distribution of sites: 2 to 9% surface sites, 6 to 13% wedge sites, and 78 to 85% interlayer sites. In contrast, lake and stream sediments near Oak Ridge, Tennessee receiving ¹³⁷Cs inputs more than 20 years earlier had greater than 99% of their ¹³⁷Cs associated with non-exchangeable interlayer sites. The difference is attributed to the paucity in the South Carolina sediments of weathered micaceous clay minerals with their abundant interlayer sites. Such interlayer deficient clays are dominant in the Atlantic and Gulf coastal plains of the United States and elsewhere. This suggests that ¹³⁷Cs will be physically and chemically more mobile in such areas as well as more biologically available. Mobility will be enhanced in regimes where cation inputs favoring ¹³⁷Cs exchange occur. Subsurface waste disposal sites where anaerobic conditions develop with NH⁺₄ production and Fe⁺² and Mn⁺² release might be such a regime.  相似文献   

Laser-induced time-resolved luminescence spectroscopy of minerals: a powerful tool for studying the nature of emission centres     

Michael Gaft  Gerard Panczer 《Mineralogy and Petrology》2013,107(3):363-372

The paper summarises new data and results referring to the characterization of the nature of luminescence centres in minerals that were published during the last 8 years. Besides well-established luminescence centres, such as Mn²⁺, Fe³⁺, Cr³⁺, divalent and trivalent rare-earth elements, S₂ ^?, and Pb²⁺, several other centres were proposed and substantiated, such as Mn³⁺, Mn⁴⁺, V²⁺, Ni²⁺, Pb⁺, Mn³⁺, Sb³⁺, Tl⁺, and radiation-induced centres. Also, a relatively new type of luminescence excitation mechanism is discussed briefly, namely plasma-induced luminescence. Here, the emission takes place when the matrix, where the formation of plasma is caused by irradiation with a beam of laser light, is capable to luminescence and contains luminescence centres.  相似文献   

Geochemistry and quality of groundwater of Gummanampadu sub-basin, Guntur District, Andhra Pradesh, India   总被引：3，自引：3，他引：0

Groundwater survey has been carried out in the area of Gummanampadu sub-basin located in Guntur District, Andhra Pradesh, India for assessing the factors that are responsible for changing of groundwater chemistry and consequent deterioration of groundwater quality, where the groundwater is a prime source for drinking and irrigation due to non-availability of surface water in time. The area is underlain by the Archaean Gneissic Complex, over which the Proterozoic Cumbhum rocks occur. The results of the plotting of Ca²⁺ + Mg²⁺ versus HCO₃ ^? + CO₃ ^2?, Ca²⁺ + Mg²⁺ versus total cations, Na⁺ + K⁺ versus total cations, Cl^? + SO₄ ^2? versus Na⁺ + K⁺, Na⁺ versus Cl^?, Na⁺ versus HCO₃ ^? + CO₃ ^2?, Na⁺ versus Ca²⁺ and Na⁺: Cl^? versus EC indicate that the rock–water interaction under alkaline condition is the main mechanism in activating mineral dissociation and dissolution, causing the release of Ca²⁺, Mg²⁺, Na⁺, K⁺, HCO₃ ^?, CO₃ ^2?, SO₄ ^2? and F^? ions into the groundwater. The ionic relations also suggest that the higher concentrations of Na⁺ and Cl^? ions are the results of ion exchange and evaporation. The influences of anthropogenic sources are the other cause for increasing of Mg²⁺, Na⁺, Cl^?, SO₄ ^2? and NO₃ ^? ions. Further, the excess alkaline condition in water accelerates more effective dissolution of F^?-bearing minerals. Moreover, the chemical data plotted in the Piper’s, Gibbs’s and Langelier–Ludwig’s diagrams, computed for the chloro-alkaline and saturation indices, and analyzed in the principal component analysis, support the above hypothesis. The groundwater quality is, thus, characterized by Na⁺ > Ca²⁺ > Mg²⁺ > K⁺: HCO₃ ^? + CO₃ ^2? > Cl^? > SO₄ ^2? > NO₃ ^? > F^? facies. On the other hand, majority of groundwater samples are not suitable for drinking with reference to the concentrations of TDS, TH, Mg²⁺ and F^?, while those are not good for irrigation with respect to USSL’s and Wilcox’s diagrams, residual sodium carbonate, and magnesium hazard, but they are safe for irrigation with respect to permeability index. Thus, the study recommends suitable management measures to improve health conditions as well as to increase agricultural output.  相似文献   

The importance of unsaturated zone biogeochemical processes in determining groundwater composition, southeastern Australia     

Matthew Edwards  John Webb 《Hydrogeology Journal》2009,17(6):1359-1374

Analysis of soil, soil water and groundwater in the Mount William Creek catchment, southeastern Australia, shows that Mg²⁺ and Ca²⁺ within infiltrating rainfall are rapidly depleted by plant uptake and adsorption on clay minerals. Na⁺ and K⁺ may exhibit minor enrichment at shallow depths but are quickly readsorbed, so that cation/Cl^– ratios typical of groundwater are observed in soil water within the upper 200 cm of the soil profile for all species. The concentrations of K⁺ and Ca²⁺ in soil and groundwater are more depleted than Na⁺ and Mg²⁺ due to preferential uptake by vegetation. Removal of organic matter results in a continuing, long-term export of all major cations from the soil profiles. The processes of biogeochemical fractionation within the unsaturated zone rapidly modify the cation/Cl^– ratios of infiltrating rainfall to values characteristic of seawater. These mechanisms may have reached steady state, because groundwaters with seawater ion/Cl^– ratios are thousands of years old; the exchange sites on the soil clays are probably saturated, so cations supplied in rainfall are exported in organic matter and incorporated into recharge infiltrating into the groundwater. Much of the chemical evolution of groundwater traditionally attributed to processes within the aquifer is complete by the time recharge occurs; this evolutionary model may have broad application.  相似文献   

Evaluation of hydrogeochemistry and water quality in Bist-Doab region,Punjab, India   总被引：1，自引：1，他引：0

Agricultural activities act as dominant polluter of groundwater due to increased fertilizers and pesticides usage. Bist-Doab region, Punjab, India, is one such region facing deterioration of groundwater quality due to usage of fertilizers. This study aims in delineating and evaluating the groundwater quality in the region. Water samples are collected from canals, reservoir, and shallow and deep groundwater. Water types in canal and reservoir in Kandi region are Mg²⁺HCO₃ ^? and Mg²⁺Ca²⁺Na⁺HCO₃ ^?, respectively. While water types of shallow and deep groundwaters are found to be of two types: Na⁺Mg²⁺Ca²⁺HCO₃ ^? and Ca²⁺Mg²⁺Na⁺HCO₃ ^?. Presence of Mg²⁺ in groundwater at locations adjoining canals indicates recharge due to canal. The major ion (Na⁺, Mg²⁺, Ca²⁺, HCO₃ ^?) chemistry of the region is due to weathering of rocks that are rich in sodic minerals and kankar. Deep groundwater quality in the region meets BIS and WHO standards for drinking purpose, unlike shallow groundwater which is of poor quality at many locations. Both shallow and deep groundwater with high sodium concentration (>1.5 meq/l) affect cropping yield and permeability of soil matrix. High concentration of SO₄ ^2? and NO₃ ^2? (>1 meq/l) in shallow groundwater at few locations indicates influence of anthropogenic (fertilizer) activity. Factor analysis indicates that the major cations, bicarbonate and chloride are derived from weathering/dissolution of source rocks. Higher concentration of nitrate and presence of sulphate in shallow groundwater at few locations is due to usage of fertilizers and pesticides.  相似文献   

Effects of poor quality irrigation waters on the nutrient leaching and groundwater quality from sandy soil     

M. Jalali  H. Merrikhpour 《Environmental Geology》2008,53(6):1289-1298

Sodium (Na⁺) in poor quality irrigation water participate in ion-exchange processes results in the displacement of base cations into solution and a raised concentration in groundwater. Knowledge of the rate of decrease of nutrients from soils resulting from poor water quality application is essential for long-term planning of crop production while minimizing the impact on groundwater quality. In this study, we examined the effect of sodium adsorption ratio (SAR) of irrigation water on nutrients leaching and groundwater quality in columns of sandy soil. Three types of irrigation waters at three NaCl–CaCl₂ solutions with the following levels of SAR (5, 15, and 30) were synthesized in laboratory. With the application of solutions, exchange occurred between solution Na⁺ and exchangeable cations (Ca²⁺, Mg²⁺, and K⁺), resulting in the displacement of these cations and anions into solution. Increasing the level of SAR from 5 to 15 and 30 resulted in increase in the average exchangeable sodium percentage (ESP) of the soil from 10.4 to 20.3, and 32.5, respectively. Adverse effect of high Na⁺ concentration in the solutions on raising ESP was less pronounced in solution having low SAR. Leaching of Ca²⁺, Mg²⁺, K⁺, and P from soil with the application of solutions represents a significant loss of valuable nutrients. This sandy soil showed the high risk for nutrients transfer into groundwater in concentrations exceeding the groundwater quality standard. Irrigation with poor quality water, which is generally more sodic and saline than regional groundwater, increases the rate of sodification and salinization of shallow groundwater.  相似文献

Influential factors on the levels of cation exchange capacity in sediment at Langat river     

Nur Aliaa Shafie  Ahmad Zaharin Aris  Nadzhratul Husna Ahmad Puad 《Arabian Journal of Geosciences》2013,6(8):3049-3058

An exploratory study was carried out at 22 sampling stations along the Langat River, Selangor in order to investigate on the vitality of cation exchange capacity (CEC) in sediment (0–5 cm). Parameters such as pH, Eh, salinity, and electrical conductivity (EC) were determined. The CEC in sediment has been calculated by the determination of Ca²⁺, Na⁺, Mg²⁺, and K⁺ using the flame atomic absorption spectrophotometer, while the organic matter content in sediment was ascertained using the loss on ignition method. The characteristic of the sediment shows that pH (3.09–7.46), salinity (0.02–10.71 ppt), EC (3.39–517 μS/cm) and Eh (?16.20–253.10 mV) were substantially high in variation. This study also revealed that exchangeable Ca²⁺ and Mg²⁺ were controlled by organic matter contents, while exchangeable Na⁺ and K⁺ were influenced by salinity. Salinity was observed to play a major part in controlling all the exchangeable cations, as it gives strong significant correlations with Na⁺, K⁺, Mg²⁺, CEC, and organic matter at p?<?0.01. The presence of seawater, clay mineralogy, and organic matter proves that it does play an important role in determining the CEC and soon relates to the pollution magnitude in the sediment.  相似文献
