ABSTRACT
The remediation of Cd-polluted sediment in coastal rivers is essential because of its potential hazards to river and marine ecosystems. Herein, a co-pyrolysis product of contaminated dredged sediment (S@BC) was innovatively applied to cap and immobilize Cd-contaminated sediment in coastal rivers in situ, and their remediation efficiencies, mechanisms, and microbial responses were explored based on a 360 d incubation experiment. The results showed that although S@BC immobilization and capping restrained sediment Cd release to the overlying water, S@BC capping presented a high inhibitory efficiency (66.0% vs. 95.3% at 360 d). Fraction analysis indicated that labile Cd was partially transformed to stable fraction after remediation, with decreases of 0.5%- 32.7% in the acid-soluble fraction and increases of 5.0%- 182.8% in the residual fraction. S@BC immobilization and capping had minor influences on the sediment bacterial community structure compared to the control. S@BC could directly adsorb sediment mobile Cd (precipitation and complexation) to inhibit Cd release and change sediment properties (e.g., pH and cation exchange capacity) to indirectly reduce Cd release. Particularly, S@BC capping also promoted Cd stabilization by enhancing the sediment sulfate reduction process. Comparatively, S@BC capping was a priority approach for Cd-polluted sediment remediation. This study provides new insights into the remediation of Cd-contaminated sediments in coastal rivers.
