The stabilization efficiencies of arsenic (As) in contaminated soil were evaluated using various additives such as limestone, steel mill slag, granular ferric hydroxide (GFH), and mine sludge ...
Arsenic (As) contamination in realgar mining areas poses a severe environmental and health risk, highlighting the critical need for effective strategies to manage As migration, particularly in its particulate and bioavailable states. Soil erosion and water leaching serve as significant pathways for spreading As, emphasizing the imperative to curtail its mobility.
Arsenic (As) is the 53rd most abundant element and constitutes about 1.5 ppm of the Earth's crust. Arsenic naturally occurs in the environment through weathering and volcanism in the form of many diverse minerals, usually in combination with sulfur and metals, as well as a pure elemental crystal.
The stabilization efficiencies of arsenic in contaminated soil were evaluated using various additives such as limestone, steel mill slag, granular ferric hydroxide, and mine sludge collected from an acid mine drainage treatment system, and it was suggested that GFH andMine sludge may play a significant role on the arsenic stabilization.

Moreover, the Sb content in agricultural soil around Sb mining areas in Guizhou is much higher than the background value. The WHO, USEPA, and EU have identified As and Sb as the priority and emerging contaminants(Guo et al., 2014; Herath …
QUEBEC – Dundee Sustainable Technologies (DST) of Montreal has cast the first piece of arsenical glass as part of commissioning its new arsenic stabilization pilot plant. The casting was done using DST's proprietary technology from a stabilization trial run in December 2015. The glass that was produced was submitted to the US …
There is a possibility that arsenic could be immobilized through gel formation during the hydration and geopolymerization process, thanks to the high surface area and absorption properties.
Arsenic and antimony are metalloids that exhibit similar geochemical behavior and are often found in the same mineral associations, co-occurring in mine waste derived from ore exploitation. Due to their adverse effects on ecosystems and human health, techniques to limit their release into the environment from mine wastes and the …
1. Introduction. Arsenic occurs in over 300 minerals (Drahota and Filippi, 2009), with arsenopyrite (FeAsS) being the major As mineral found most frequently (Alloway, 1995; Corkhill and Vaughan, 2009).Arsenopyrite is present in a large diversity of ore deposits (hydrothermal, magmatic and porphyry-style) (Corkhill and Vaughan, …
Arsenic is highly toxic, carcinogenic, and it exists widely as various forms in the earth's crust with more than 300 arsenic minerals being investigated [1, 2].Arsenic is often associated with heavy metal minerals and precious metals minerals, and exploiting and enriching with the process of mining and metallurgy [3,4,5] as observed in process …

Massive realgar tailings abandoned in mining areas in China have caused serious arsenic (As) pollution seeking for urgent disposal. Stabilization treatment is a feasible strategy, however, stabilization technologies for realgar tailings, that are Fe-deficient, Ca-rich and S-rich, have not been well developed to date.
Ex-situ stabilization for As and Sb co-contaminated soil was conducted through an iron-based stabilizer, PFSC (a mixture of polymerized ferric sulfate (PFS) and hydrated lime (Ca(OH 2)) with a dry mass ratio of 2:1).After field aging for one week, the stabilized contaminated soil was subjected to a horizontal vibration leaching test (HJ …
