Abstract: |
Batch adsorption experiments were conducted to investigate cosorption behavior of atrazine (AT) and Cu2+ on soil. Results showed that the presence of Cu2+ significantly decreased AT adsorption on soil and the adsorption data of AT could be well described by Freundlich model (R2=0.9669). The addition of AT also reduced the adsorption amount of Cu2+ on soil, with reduction effect being greater at lower AT concentrations (< 5 mg·L-1). This might be contributed to the formation of AT-Cu2+ complex, resulting in a decrease of competitive adsorption. Langmuir equation was the most appropriate model for the adsorption process of Cu2+ under the presence of AT. When AT coexisted with Cu2+, the adsorption of both AT and Cu2+ was positively related with organic matter, which was very consistent with the result of single pollution. However, the adsorption capacities of both AT and Cu2+ were reduced by increasing ionic strength, whereas the effect was opposite when AT existed alone. The adsorption amount of Cu2+ was not very affected by pH, may due to the complex formation and buffering action of soil. |
