Responses of Soil Cadmium Desorption under Different Saline Environments and Its Controlling Factors

Heavy metal pollution of soil restricts the sustainable use of land and poses risks to human health throughout the world. Changes in the physicochemical properties of soil may increase the mobility of heavy metals in the soil ecosystem and lead to groundwater pollution. In this study, the effects of...

In this study, the effects of different salt solutions (NaCl, CaCl<sub>2</sub>, NaNO<sub>3</sub>, MgCl<sub>2</sub>, Na<sub>2</sub>SO<sub>4</sub>, and mixed salts) on the release of Cd from soil were investigated by batch desorption tests and the Freundlich isothermal sorption model.
