Abstract

Four well-characterized soils collected from A- and B-horizon in the Department of Energy Oak Ridge Reservation in USA, mainly distributed with Inceptisol(Inc) and Ultisol(Ult) soils, were used in this work. The bioaccessibility of arsenic as well as oxidation phenomena of As(III) was investigated with soils spiked with As(III) and As(V) using a physiologically based extraction test(PBET) at pH 1.5 and 1:100 soil to solution ratio. Also effect of aging time on the bioaccessibility of arsenic was investigated over the 6 months. After 48 hours(fresh) contacting As(V) solution with soils, all soils rapidly and strongly sequestrated As(V), especially Ult-B. However, little sequestration was observed after 3-months. When As(III) was spiked on the same soils, a great portion of As(III) was oxidized to As(V) after 48 hrs, especially Inc-A and Ult-A soils, which is strongly related with Mn content in soils. By using As(III)-spiked soils, much reduced bioaccessibility as total arsenic was observed from Inc-B and Ult-B soils over the 6 months aging time compared to that from Inc-A and Ult-A soils. This result can be explained by the continuous sequestration of As(V), produced from oxidation of As(III), onto Inc-B and Ult-B soils having much amount of iron. The trend of As(III) sequestration over six months aging time was quite similar with that of As(V) sequestration.

미국 Oak Ridge 연구소 관리지역에서 Inceptisol(Inc) 및 Utisol(Ult)이 지배적으로 분포된 토양층의 A- 및 B-층으로부터 채취한 물리화학적 특성이 잘 규명된 4종의 토양시료에 As(III) 및 As(V)를 흡착시킨 후 토양시료에 대한 추출용액의 비 1:100 조건에서 pH를 1.5로 고정시킨 생리학적 추출용액을 이용한 추출시험을 통하여 초기 노화조건에서의 비소의 생접근도(bioaccessibility) 및 As(III) 산화정도와 6개월간의 노화시간 경과에 따른 비소의 생접근도를 조사하였다. 토양시료에 As(C)를 주입시킨 후 48시간이 경과되었을 때 모든 토양시료에서, 특히 Ult-B, 빠르고도 강한 As(V)의 고정화(sequestration) 현상이 일어났다. 그렇지만 3개월이 지난 후에는 As(V)의 고정화에 큰 변화가 없었다. 동일한 토양시료에 As(III)를 인위적으로 오염시킨 후 48시간이 경과되었을 때 Inc-A 및 Ult-A 토양시료에서는 상당 분율의 As(III)가 As(V)로 산화되었다. 이러한 As(III)의 산화정도는 토양시료내의 망간 함량과 비례관계가 있는 것으로 나타났다. As(III)를 오염시킨 Inc-B 및 Ult-B 토양시료에서의 노화시간 경과에 따른 총비소의 생접근도 감소는 Inc-A 및 Ult-A 토양시료에서 얻어진 값보다 더 크게 나타났다. 이러한 경향은 철 함량이 풍부한 Inc-B 및 Ult-B 토양들이 As(III)로부터 산화된 As(V)를 지속적으로 고착화시킴에 따른 것으로 여겨지며 As(V)로 오염시킨 토양시료에서 얻어진 As(V) 고착화 정도와 유사한 경향을 나타내었다.
