摘要：Low-cost magnesium- and/or carbon-based materials have a great potential to remove soluble contaminants from surface and ground water. This study examined mechanisms that control the removal of nitrate, phosphate and pesticides (tricyclazole, malathion and isoprothiolane) during their transport through calcined magnesia (MgO) and corn stalk biochar. Various miscible column breakthrough experiments were carried out and morphology and crystallographic structures of reactive materials were examined. Approximately 96% (78,950?mg-NO3-/kg) and 48% (27,455?mg-NO3-/kg) of nitrate were removed from biochar and MgO columns, respectively. Chemical adsorption dominated nitrate removal during early phase (i.e., <11?PVs for biochar and <100?PVs for MgO, respectively), and microbial denitrification dominated during the following phase. 92% of the applied phosphate (6168?mg-PO43-/kg) was removed in MgO column, while much less in biochar column (4%, 347?mg-PO43-/kg). Mineral surface analyses confirmed that electrostatic attraction, ligand exchange, and chemical precipitation were responsible for phosphate removal. For the three pesticides, biochar exhibited larger removal capacity (1260–2778?mg/kg) than MgO (28–2193?mg/kg) due to the functional groups on biochar. The removal of pesticides based on their physico-chemical properties. Malathion had highest removal rate (98–100%), attributing to chemical sorption and bio-degradation, followed by isoprothiolane (47–79%) and tricyclazole (6–64%).
