To reveal the adsorption mechanism of sediment to antibiotics with the presence of dissolved organic matter (DOM), batch experiments were carried out by oxytetracycline (OTC) on sediments with decayed plants (PDOM) and composted chicken manure (MDOM), and the zeta potential in the system before and after adsorption was measured. Results showed that the PDOM promoted the adsorption process, while the MDOM inhibited the adsorption. Adding PDOM, the change of zeta potential (Δζ) increased by 40.08% for first terrace sediments (FT) and 63.98% for riverbed sediments (RB), respectively; meanwhile, MDOM decreased by 20.04% for FT and 28.39% for RB, respectively. The results of kinetic fitting models of replacing the adsorption amount with Δζ were consistent with the initial. It indicated that there was a positive correlation between the adsorption amount and Δζ, and the zeta potential can be used to quickly judge the degree of adsorption process. The Derjaguin-Landau-Verwey-Overbeek (DLVO) theory describes the interactions of sediment particles. In terms of adsorption amount, zeta potential (absolute value) and total interaction energy all followed the order: RB > FT, RB-PDOM > FT-PDOM, and RB-MDOM > FT-MDOM. The more negative the zeta potential is, the better the dispersion of the particles is. Stronger repulsion is more conducive to adsorbing positively charged OTC. The site energy distribution theory further explained that the distribution of adsorption site in the various states of sediments increased while adding the PDOM and decreased while adding the MDOM.
