摘要: Al(III)-substituted ferrihydrite existing in natural soils is more common than pure ferrihydrite; however, the effects of Al(III) incorporation on the interaction between ferrihydrite, Mn(II) catalytic oxidation, and coexisting transition metal (e.g., Cr(III)) oxidation remain elusive. To address this knowledge gap, Mn(II) oxidation on synthetic Al(III)-incorporated ferrihydrite and Cr(III) oxidation on the previously formed Fe-Mn binaries were investigated in this study via batch kinetic studies combined with various spectroscopic analyses. The results indicate that Al substitution in ferrihydrite barely changes its morphology, specific surface area, or the types of surface functional groups, but increases the total amount of hydroxyl on the ferrihydrite surface and enhances its adsorption capacity toward Mn(II). Conversely, Al substitution inhibits electron transfer in ferrihydrite, thereby weakening its electrochemical catalysis on Mn(II) oxidation. Thus, the contents of Mn(III/IV) oxides with higher Mn valence states decrease, whereas those of lower Mn valence states increase. Furthermore, the number of hydroxyl radicals formed during Mn(II) oxidation on ferrihydrite decreases. These inhibitions of Al substitution on Mn(II) catalytic oxidation subsequently cause decreased Cr(III) oxidation and poor Cr(VI) immobilization. Additionally, Mn(III) in Fe-Mn binaries is confirmed to play a dominant role in Cr(III) oxidation. This research facilitates sound decision-making regarding the management of Cr-contaminated soil environments enriched with Fe and Mn.
