Multiple-Phase Evaluation of Copper Geochemistry

  • Chapter
Heavy Metal Contamination of Soils

Part of the book series: Soil Biology ((SOILBIOL,volume 44))

Abstract

Geochemical processes involve reactions which mediate and control the dissolution/release and (re)formation/sorption of mineral elements at geological as well as soil levels. The role of trace elements, copper among others, in soil chemical changes is still a matter of detailed studies. Primary copper-bearing minerals and their secondary weathering stage compounds should potentially release Cu via CO2 injection into deep geological structures or mining activities. The latter ones initiate slow or intensive spread of Cu compounds into the environment.

Multiple-phase Cu evaluation was additionally detailed in a case study of natural (uncontaminated) and anthropogenic (contaminated) soil Cu concentrations. Langmuir-based sorption density (SD) models and surface charge density (SCD) were also used in the geochemical Cu processes assessment. The simplified Elovich model showed a good data fit, which is suggestive of bulk and intraparticle diffusion processes. Copper in contaminated and uncontaminated soils was characterised by a negative hysteresis indicative of relatively high copper desorbability. This process should be strengthened under acidic conditions and high copper contamination. Energies of activation for the adsorption (E aa) process were generally lower for uncontaminated as compared to contaminated soils. Copper required low energies to desorb, and the activation energy for desorption (E ad) values did not exceed 15 kJ mol−1. Such low desorption energies indicate that copper is disposed to enhance mobility. Geochemical aspects were substantially outlined.
