Abstract:
The zero valent iron(Fe
0) or calcium nitrate was added into the sediment of Suzhou creck for 80 days in the anaer obic environment for in-situ sediment treatment.The effects of chemical agents on the overlying water were studied by DO,pH,Eh,COD
Cr and TOC measurements.The results show that DO is depleted dramatically by Fe
0 added,resulting in anaero bic environment easily,whereas the consumption of DO is delayed by the added calcium nitrate.And Fe
0 or calcium nitrate added will raise pH value and descend Eh value.Meanwhile,the effect on COD
Cr or TOC in overlying water by Fe
0 added is lower than that of the calcium nitrate added.In addition,there are certain relations among DO,pH and Eh or between COD
Cr and TOC in overlying water as Fe
0 or calcium nitrate is added respectively.
