| Abstract: |
| The effect of activated carbon and biochar on microbial reduction of arsenic-bearing ferrihydrite was studied. The results indicated that activated carbon and biochar inhibited microbial reduction of arsenic-bearing ferrihydrite[As(Ⅴ)-FH] at the initial stage, which was ascribed to the microbial cell toxicity of activated carbon and biochar and supported by the fluorescence staining analysis at 48 h. With the prolonging of incubation time, the microbial cell adapted to the culture environment at 120 h, and reduced Fe(Ⅲ) in As(Ⅴ)-FH efficiently. With further increase of incubation time to 246 h, activated carbon and biochar greatly promoted the extent of Fe(Ⅲ) reduction in As(Ⅴ)-FH. Moreover, the removal of As from the supernatant was inhibited by the addition of activated carbon and biochar. The secondary minerals vivianite and siderite were formed in sequence during microbial reduction of As(Ⅴ)-FH, and As was mainly immobilized by vivianite. The study provides a new insight into the mechanism of the effect of carbonaceous materials on the transformation and release of As from As-bearing mineals mediated by microbe in the naturally occurring environment. |
