In this study, an integrated system of Fe⁰ and hydrogenotrophic microbes mediated by nitrate (nitrate-mediated bio-Fe⁰, NMB-Fe⁰) was established to remediate Cd(II)-contaminated sediment. Solid phase characterization confirmed that aqueous Cd(II) (Cd(II)ₐq) was successfully immobilized and enriched on iron surface due to promoted iron corrosion driven by hydrogenotrophic denitrification and subsequent greater biomineral production such as magnetite, lepidocrocite and green rust. Compared to a Cd(II)ₐq removal of 21.1% in overlying water of the nitrate-mediated Fe⁰ (NM-Fe⁰) system, the NMB-Fe⁰ system obtained a much higher Cd(II)ₐq removal of 83.1% after 7 d remediation. The leaching test and sequential extraction results also showed that the leachability of Cd(II) decreased by 75.9% while the residual fraction of Cd(II) increased by 185.7% in comparison with untreated sediment. Besides, the Cd(II)ₐq removal raised with the increase of nitrate concentration and Fe⁰ dosage, further revealing the promotion effect of nitrate on Cd(II) removal by bio-Fe⁰. This study highlighted the involvement of bio-denitrification in the remediation of Cd(II)-contaminated sediment by Fe⁰ and provided a new insight to enhance its reactivity and applicability for Cd(II) immobilization.
