Short-term geochemical investigation and assessment of dissolved elements from simulated ash reclaimed soil into groundwater
2019

A soil column migration trough was used to study the leaching behavior and geochemical partitioning of fifteen elements Al, As, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mg, Sn, Sb, Zn, V, Co, Mn, Pb, Ni and Cd in simulated ash reclaimed soil. According to the results of cluster analysis for the sampling stations, there were three clusters: Cluster 1 of 7 wells with relative good groundwater quality originated from the background control area, Cluster 2 of 9 wells with worst groundwater quality in the downstream parts of the simulated ash reclaimed soil, and Cluster 3 of 2 wells with representative of samples influenced by the combined effect of injection of leaching solution and the main current. Statistical analysis identified five factor types that accounted for 83.055% of the total variance, which declined in the order: ash-soil rate > leaching intensity > water depths > flow velocity > leaching time. As, Sb, Cd, Pb and Ni were the dominant contaminants. The water around ash reclaimed soil was unsuitable for drinking. As, Mn, Cd, Sb, Co and V were the largest contributors to health risks. Soils reclaimed with fly ash can consequently be a long-time source for the transfer of toxic elements into groundwater.
