Abstract

Abstract

As the only legal method for the determination of hexavalent chromium[Cr(Ⅵ)] in soils and sediments, alkaline digestion/flame atomic absorption spectrometry (specified in China's national standard, HJ 1082-2019) was implemented in China in June 2020. However, false positive and negative deviation were reported by some researchers and engineering projects for Cr(Ⅵ)-contaminated soils. The positive and negative biases caused by dissolved Cr(Ⅲ), flushing agent (citrate) and reductants (FeSO₄, Na₂S₂O₅, Na₂S and CaS_x) were investigated in this study. Experimental results showed that Cr(Ⅲ) produced during remediation was supersaturated over the remediation and determination process, resulting in small positive biases which may cause erroneous judgment. The adsorption effect of soil to the Cr(Ⅲ) played a crucial role in mitigating the positive bias to below the determination limit. Citrate could significantly enhance the dissolution of Cr(Ⅲ) to a level resulting in positive bias. When a large number of residual reductants remained in soils after remediation, they could reduce the extracted Cr(Ⅵ) into Cr(Ⅲ) during alkaline digestion or pH adjustment, resulting in significant negative bias. This negative bias couldn't be offset by the positive bias of FAAS, due to the uncertainty and small amplitude of the positive biases.
