    Abstract:
    The remediation for industrial site soil has attracted public concerns because of the hazardous and hydrophobic properties of organic pollutants existed in the soil. The persulfate oxidation activated by Fe2+ chelated with sodium citrate (PS/Fe2+/SC) was used to remediate different types of industrial site soils in the present study. The maximum removal rates of Σ16 PAHs in the Nanjing site soil (NJS) and Hefei site soil (HFS) were 73.6% and 85.8% after the second-stage oxidation, respectively. The late oxidation stages couldn't enhance the degradation efficiency of PAHs due to the increase of high crystalline Fe mineral phases both in the NJS and HFS, which significantly decreased the Fe2+/Fe3+ recycle and further inhibited the reactive oxygen species production during the remediation. The remediation using PS/Fe2+/SC could change the soil physicochemical properties, such as the functional groups, specific surface area (SSA), total pore volume (TPV) and some UV spectral parameters of soil particles. Additionally, the oxidation of PS/Fe2+/SC also altered the composition of soil dissolve organic matters, especially the fulvic acid, which further affected the Fe2+ oxidation. The study mainly discloses the mechanism of limitation using persulfate oxidation activated by Fe materials at late oxidation stage.
