Phosphorus migration from sediment to phosphorus-inactivating material: A key process neglected by common phosphorus immobilization assessments for lake geoengineering.

[PMID: 37655163 PMCID: PMC10466892 DOI: 10.1016/j.wroa.2023.100197] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/20/2023] [Revised: 07/31/2023] [Accepted: 08/14/2023] [Indexed: 09/02/2023]
Abstract
Various phosphorus (P)-inactivating materials with a strong capability of immobilizing P in sediment have been developed for lake geoengineering purposes to control internal P pollution. However, unsatisfactory applications have raised concerns about the reliability of the method. This study hypothesized that P migration from sediment to material is a key process regulating the immobilization, which is often neglected by common assessment procedures that assume that the material is closely in contact with sediment (e.g., as mixtures). To verify this hypothesis, 90-day incubation tests were conducted using drinking water treatment residue (DWTR). The results showed that the soluble P in the overlying water of sediment-DWTR mixtures and the mobile P in the mixtures were substantially reduced from the initial period and remained low during the whole incubation tests. However, assessment based on separated samples indicated a gradual P migration from sediment to DWTR for immobilization. Even after 90 days of incubation, mobile P still accounted for ∼5.33% of total P in the separated sediment. Further analysis suggested that using mixtures of sediment with DWTR accelerated P migration during the assessment, leading to a faster P immobilization assessment. Considering the relatively low levels of mobile P in the separated DWTR during incubation, the gradual decrease in mobile P in the separated sediment indicates that sediment P release regulates P immobilization efficiency. Therefore, designing a proper strategy to ensure sufficient time for the material to remain in close contact with the target sediment is critical to reducing uncertainties in lake geoengineering.

Immobilization of phosphorus in water-sediment system by iron-modified attapulgite, calcite, bentonite and dolomite under feed input condition: Efficiency, mechanism, application mode effect and response of microbial communities and iron mobilization. WATER RESEARCH 2023; 247:120777. [PMID: 37897994 DOI: 10.1016/j.watres.2023.120777] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/10/2023] [Revised: 10/08/2023] [Accepted: 10/21/2023] [Indexed: 10/30/2023]
Abstract
Four kinds of iron-based materials, i.e., iron-modified attapulgite, calcite, bentonite and dolomite (abbreviated as Fe-ATP, Fe-CA, Fe-BT and Fe-DOL, respectively) were prepared and used to immobilize the phosphorus in the system of overlying water (O-water) and sediment under the feed input condition, and their immobilization efficiencies and mechanisms were investigated. The influence of application mode on the immobilization of phosphorus in the water-sediment system by Fe-ATP, Fe-CA, Fe-BT and Fe-DOL was researched. The effects of Fe-ATP, Fe-CA, Fe-BT and Fe-DOL on the concentration of labile iron in the water-sediment system and the microbial communities in sediment were also studied. The results showed that the Fe-ATP, Fe-CA, Fe-BT and Fe-DOL addition all can effectively immobilize the soluble reactive phosphorus (SRP), dissolved total phosphorus (DTP) and diffusive gradients in thin-films (DGT)-labile phosphorus in O-water under the feed input condition, and also had the ability to inactivate the DGT-labile phosphorus in the top sediment. Although the change in the application mode from the one-time addition to the multiple addition reduced the inactivation efficiencies of SRP and DTP in O-water in the early period of application, it increased the immobilization efficiencies in the later period of application. Although Fe-ATP, Fe-CA, Fe-BT and Fe-DOL had a certain releasing risk of iron into the pore water, they had negligible risk of iron release into O-water. The addition of Fe-ATP, Fe-CA, Fe-BT or Fe-DOL reshaped the sediment bacterial community structure and can affect the microorganism-driven phosphorus cycle in the sediment. Results of this work suggest that Fe-ATP, Fe-CA, Fe-BT and Fe-DOL are promising phosphorus-inactivation materials to immobilize the phosphorus in the water-sediment system under the feed input condition.

Sediment resuspension causes horizontal variations in the distributions of phosphorus (P) and P-inactivating materials with differing P immobilization in different sediment planes. WATER RESEARCH 2023; 243:120327. [PMID: 37451125 DOI: 10.1016/j.watres.2023.120327] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/08/2023] [Revised: 07/06/2023] [Accepted: 07/07/2023] [Indexed: 07/18/2023]
Abstract
The importance of controlling internal phosphorus (P) pollution in lakes has been recognized by scientists, and the application of P-inactivating materials to immobilize sediment P is often considered. However, sediment resuspension, a typical physical process occurring in lakes, has been demonstrated to increase the uncertainty of immobilization. In this study, we explored the characteristics of P immobilization in the horizontal direction under the effects of resuspension using annular flume tests based on drinking water treatment residuals (DWTR). The results showed that resuspension caused the mobile P and bioavailable P to be heterogeneously distributed in sediment planes after DWTR addition, resulting in varying P immobilization efficiencies at different depths. In particular, the coefficient of variation was 14.2-24.5% for mobile P horizontally distributed in the planes, resulting in a range of mobile P decreasing efficiencies at 24.0-47.8%. Further analysis indicated that variations in horizontal distribution were typically due to the varied migration of particles of different sizes. Specifically, P immobilization in sediment planes at different depths was regulated by promoting the migration of <8 μm DWTR after relatively low-intensity disturbance (in surface 0-1 cm sediment). After relatively high-intensity disturbance (in the whole 0-3 cm sediment), immobilization in the horizontal direction was regulated by coupling the migration of >63 μm DWTR (to the bottom) with the mixing of <8 μm DWTR in the sediment plane at different depths. The varying horizontal distributions of total P, resulting from the migration of 16-32 μm sediment, could enhance the heterogeneities of the P immobilization. Thus, the particle size of materials and lake background conditions, for example, the hydrodynamic characteristics and P distributions in differently sized sediments, should be used as key bases to select or develop P-inactivating materials to design proper remediation strategies for controlling internal P pollution in lakes.

Abstract
Glass-ceramics with novel composition xZrO2.7P2O5.19CaO.24Na2O.(50-x)B2O3 (x = 0, 2, 4, 6, and 8 mol%) have been synthesized using melt quench technique. The synthesized compositions were characterized and analyzed by X-ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy, infrared absorption, and impedance spectroscopy. X-ray diffraction profiles of prepared samples confirm the existence of phases corresponding to Na3Ca6(PO4)5 crystal (with crystallite size ~ 23 nm). Infrared absorbance spectra reveal the presence of phosphate and borate units (PO3, PO4, BO3, BO4) in the glass matrix. Different dielectric parameters such as dielectric loss, electric modulus, and tangent loss were evaluated. Their variations with temperature and frequency confirm the non- Debye relaxation behavior of prepared samples. A phenomenal description of the capacitive behavior was studied by considering the circuit having a parallel combination of constant phase element and bulk resistance. The conduction is found to be governed by overlapping large polaron tunneling (OLPT) and follow OLPT model. The results indicate that ZrO2 substituted alkali phosphoborate glass-ceramics can be used as eco-friendly and safe dielectric materials.

Abstract
The characteristics and mechanism of phosphate adsorption onto magnetite, hematite and goethite were comparatively studied, and the effects of magnetite, hematite and goethite amendment and capping on endogenous phosphorus (P) liberation from sediment into overlying water (OW) were comparatively investigated. The adsorption of phosphate onto magnetite, hematite and goethite mainly obeyed the inner-sphere complexation mechanism, and the phosphate adsorption capacity decreased in the order of magnetite > goethite > hematite. The magnetite, hematite and goethite amendment all can decrease the risk of endogenous Prelease into OW under anoxic conditions, and the inactivation of diffusion gradients in thin films-labile P in sediment made a great contribution to the restraint of endogenous P release into OW by the magnetite, hematite and goethite amendment. The efficiency of endogenous P release restraint by the iron oxide addition decreased in the order of magnetite > goethite > hematite. The magnetite, hematite and goethite capping all can be effective for the suppression of endogenous P release from sediment into OW under anoxic conditions, and most of P immobilized by the magnetite, hematite and goethite capping layers is relatively or very stable. The results obtained from this work suggest that magnetite is more suitably used a capping/amendment material to prevent P release from sediment than hematite and goethite, and magnetite capping is a promising approach for hindering sedimentary P release into OW.

Abstract
Attapulgite co-modified by lanthanum-iron (MT-LHMT) was used to study its effectiveness and mechanism in controlling phosphorus release from sediments. MT-LHMT has high adsorption capacity for phosphate and the maximum adsorption capacity of MT-LHMT to phosphate can reach 75.79 mg/g. The mechanism mainly involved electrostatic action, surface precipitation and ligand exchange between MT-LHMT bonded hydroxyl and phosphate to form La-O-P and Fe-O-P inner-sphere complexes. MT-LHMT has excellent adsorption performance in the pH range of 3-8. In addition to HCO3-, CO32- and HA- had a negative effect on the phosphorus removal of MT-LHMT, while NO3-, Cl-, SO42-, K+, Ca2+ and Mg2+ had a positive or no effect on phosphorus removal. MT-LHMT significantly reduced the risk of phosphorus release from overlying water in different dose effects and covering methods, as well as the unstable inactivation of flowing phosphorus, sediment dissolved reactive phosphorus (DRP) and available phosphorus with medium diffusion gradient in thin film in the sediment-water interface (Labile-PDGT). The MT-LHMT capping wrapped with fabric can reduce the risk of nitrogen release from sediment to overlying water more than only MT-LHMT capping. The results of this study showed that the MT-LHMT capping wrapped with fabric has high potential and can be used as an active capping material to manage the nitrogen and phosphorus load in surface water.

Abstract
The adsorption behavior of phosphorus on raw sediment (RS), attapulgite (AT), purified attapulgite (PAT) and AT/PAT-amended sediments conforms to the Langmuir, pseudo first-order kinetics and liquid film diffusion model. The adsorption process is spontaneous and monolayer adsorption, and the adsorption rate is mainly controlled by liquid film diffusion. The addition of attapulgite improved the adsorption capacity of phosphorus in the sediments of mariculture ponds. The results of long-term sediment core incubation showed that the average reduction rates of total phosphorus (TP) and soluble reactive phosphorus (SRP) in overlying water and SRP in pore water by adding 20% purified attapulgite (S/PAT20) were 62.11%, 70.83% and 56.32% respectively, and the phosphorus flux in sediments decreased by 53.81%. The addition of attapulgite reduces the risk of phosphorus release in sediments, and changes sediments from "source" to "pool". The specific surface area and pore volume of PAT increased to 203.254 cm2/g and 0.395 cm3/g respectively, but the phosphorus adsorption capacity was only increased by 2 times compared with AT (1431.3-2671.8 mg P/kg), indicating that the changes of mineral structure and chemical composition jointly determine the phosphorus adsorption effect. Adsorption mechanisms include physical adsorption, surface chemical precipitation, ligand effects, electrostatic attraction and ion exchange. Therefore, seeking modification methods with low energy consumption, low production cost, no damage to rod crystal, expansion of pore volume, increase of hydroxyl and other functional groups, and great retention of effective components are issues that need to be considered to improve the phosphorus adsorption capacity of attapulgite.
