In this study, column tests were used to determine the retention capability of three types of estuarine alluvia collected adjacent to landfill sites in South Wales. Selective sequential extraction (SSE) was used to study the retention mechanisms of heavy metals in the soil columns obtained from leaching experiments. Acid digestion was later used to check the validity of the SSE results. Breakthrough curves show good retention of heavy metal ions (Pb, Cu, and Zn) by all soils, where almost 99% of heavy metals were retained with the Ce/Co values in the order of 10−3. The retention strength of these soils was observed to be constant up to five pore volumes (PV). This corresponds with the pH of the effluents and pore water of soil slices, which also show good buffering capacity against very acidic leachate up to 5PV. The heavy metal extraction profiles from SSE show very similar trends with the retention profiles from the leaching experiments, where heavy metals were retained mainly at the top part where the leachate entered the column. SSE indicates qualitatively that heavy metals precipitated with carbonates and amorphous materials (oxides/hydroxides) are higher than heavy metal retention via exchangeable mechanisms. The mass balance calculation gives range of deviation of 1–16% of the total soil extraction. The distribution of the heavy metals with various soil constituents are ranked in the following order: Carbonates>Amorphous oxides hydroxides>Organic matter>Exchangeable phases. 相似文献

Deterioration of groundwater quality in the vicinity of an active open-tipping site in West Malaysia 总被引：3，自引：0，他引：3

There is an urgent need for characterization of leachate arising from waste disposal to ensure a corresponding effective leachate management policy. Field and laboratory studies have been carried out to investigate the impact of municipal landfill leachate on the underlying groundwater at a site in West Malaysia. The solid waste was disposed of directly onto an unprotected natural soil formation. This situation was made worse by the shallow water table. The hydrochemical composition of groundwater in the vicinity of the site (background) is a dilute mixed cation, bicarbonate water. The high ionic balance error of ~13.5% reveals that the groundwater body underneath the site was a highly contaminated leachate rather than contaminated groundwater. Elevated concentration of chloride (355.48 mg/L), nitrate (10.40 mg/L as NO3), nitrite (14.59 mg/L), ammoniacal-N (11.61 mg/L), sodium (227.56 mg/L), iron (0.97 mg/L), and lead (0.32 mg/L) measured downgradient indicate that the contamination plume has migrated further away from the site. In most cases, the concentration of these contamination indicators, together with the ranges of sodium percentage (66.3–89.9%) and sodium adsorption ratio (10.1–19.7%), were found to be considerably higher than the limit values of safe water for both domestic and irrigation purposes, respectively. 相似文献

A study was carried out around the lagoon and coastal area of Setiu wetlands to determine the general characteristics and grain-size distribution of their sediments. Sediment samples were collected from 39 stations of the lagoon area and 8 stations of the coastal area, and were analyzed for their sedimentological characteristics (mean, sorting, skewness and kurtosis). The sediment mean size ranged between 0.06–2.52 and 2.12–2.69 phi (Ø) for both lagoon and coastal sea-bottom sediments, respectively. Generally, the sediments in the study area consist mostly of coarse to fine particles. The major portions of the sediment are negatively skewed. This indicates that the study area is under the influence of the rather strong wave and current action. The study also encompassed the geophysical survey that was conducted near the coastal zone of the study area. The high-resolution seismic sub-bottom profiling technique is the standard method employed to map geological features and locate structures below the surface of the seafloor. Data obtained from seismic records were used to interpret the seismic reflectors. Three main reflectors (layers), which consist of the seabed and the seabed multiple, were traced using Sonar Web Pro software, and the results showed a uniform distribution pattern for all stations surveyed. It is envisaged that this method could be an effective way to image the marine subsurface structures; thus, its use is anticipated in the higher degrees of sedimentary research and marine resource exploration. 相似文献

The subtidal sediments of four coastal environments (beach, berm, surf zone and nearshore sea floor) of Kuala Terengganu have
been studied in terms of their textural characteristics and depositional process. Sampling and statistical analyses of the
grain size distributions of beach, surf zone and shallow sea-floor sediments at various locations along the coastline show
that they varied in their mean grain size as well as values of sorting and skewness. The statistical parameters of grain size
distributions thus allowed recognition of distinct sub-environments. The size distribution of such sediments suggests that
the various processes that are responsible for their transportation and deposition are wave, current and wind action. The
different energy conditions and the morphology of each coastal environment seem to be reflected in the characteristics of
the sediments in each environment. 相似文献

Deducing sediment transport direction and the relative importance of rivers on a tropical microtidal beach using the "McLaren model" 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
H. Mohd-Lokman Y. Rosnan S. Ejria N. A. M. Shazili K. K. Y. Kassim 《Environmental Geology》1998,34(2-3):128-134
Analyses of the sedimentological trend from 90 samples collected at 1-km intervals along a tropical microtidal coastline
of northern Terengganu indicate that the preferred sediment transport direction was northwards, following the McLaren model.
The extent of disruption to and reestablishment of the sedimentological trend on beaches north of two river mouths within
the study area was used to determine their relative importance in supplying sediment to the beaches. The extent of disruption
to the sedimentological trend was 18 and 14 km for the beaches north of the Terengganu and Setiu River mouths, respectively.
This suggests that the Terengganu River is more important in supplying sediments to the beach than the Setiu River. To a limited
extent this study showed that the McLaren model can be applied to deduce sediment transport direction on a microtidal coastline,
while disruption to the sedimentological trend adjacent to river mouths can be used to compare the relative importance of
rivers in supplying sediments, provided that the disruption to the sedimentological trend is small enough so as to allow for
the trend to be discernible again further along the transport path.
