Effects of Epigallocatechin Gallate (EGCG) on Migration of Al, Fe and Mn in Yellow Earth Under the Interactions of Concentrations and pH Values[J]. 2017, 31(4): 338-344. DOI: 10.13870/j.cnki.stbcxb.2017.04.053.
Fe and Mn in Yellow Earth under the leaching environment was analyzed
and the effects of Epigallocatechin Gallate (EGCG) on the migration of Al
Fe and Mn under the interactions of concentrations and pH values. A completely randomized experiment with two factors was carried out
in which 48 EGCG solutions combined from different concentrations and pH values was designed to leach the Yellow Earth discontinuously. The concentrations of Al
Fe and Mn in leaching solutions were measured to analyze the migration volumes and migration processes of Al
Fe and Mn. The results indicated that the migration volumes of Al
Fe and Mn in Yellow Earth varied significantly under the interactions of concentrations and pH values. The EGCG solution with high concentration and high pH value would facilitate the migration of Al and Fe
whose volumes were 180.24 mg/L and 41.15 mg/L
respectively. However
the EGCG solution with high concentration and low pH value would be conducive to the migration of Mn
whose volume was 4.50 mg/L. The migration volumes of the three elements under the different interactions of concentrations and pH values followed the order of Al>Fe>Mn. Generally speaking
the concentrations of Al and Mn in the leachate decreased gradually in the middle-late leaching stage. However
the Fe concentrations in the leachate first increased and then decreased in the leaching processes
as the EGCG solutions with middle concentration and high pH
high concentration and high pH
and high concentration and middle pH; while the Fe concentrations showed a significant rising trend
when the concentrations of EGCG interacted with a lower pH value. It is suggested that the leaching of EGCG has a positive effect on the treatment of soil Al/Mn toxicity in a certain degree
especially at the early stage of leaching. Whereas
EGCG could not be used to control Al/Mn toxicity in soil at the same time.
