Combined effects of low-molecular-weight organic acids on mobilization of arsenic and lead from multi-contaminated soils (2016)
Journal Article
mobilization of arsenic and lead from multi-contaminated soils. Chemosphere, 170, 161-168. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.chemosphere.2016.12.024

A batch experiment was conducted to examine the combined effects of three common low-molecularweight organic acids (LMWOAs) on the mobilization of arsenic and lead in different types of multicontaminated soils. The capacity of individual LMWOAs (at... Read More about Combined effects of low-molecular-weight organic acids on mobilization of arsenic and lead from multi-contaminated soils.

Potential effects of rainwater-borne H2O2 on competitive degradation of herbicides and in the presence of humic acid (2016)
Journal Article
degradation of herbicides and in the presence of humic acid. Chemosphere, 170, 146-152. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.chemosphere.2016.12.021

In a previous piece of work, we reported some preliminary experimental results showing that hydrogen peroxide at a concentration range frequently encountered in rainwater could lead to degradation of three common herbicides (diuron, butachlor and gly...

Application of iron and silicon fertilizers reduces arsenic accumulation by two Ipomoea aquatica varities (2016)
Journal Article
accumulation by two Ipomoea aquatica varities. Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 15(11), 2613-2619. https://doi.org/10.1016/S2095-3119%2815%2961320-X

A 45 d pot experiment was conducted to examine the effects of silicon fertilizer or iron fertilizer on the growth of two typical Ipomoea aquatica cultivars and As accumuation of two typical Ipomoea aquatica cultivars grown in As-contaminated soils at...

Particle size effects on bioaccessible amounts of ingestible soil-borne toxic elements (2016)
Journal Article
Qin, J., Nworie, O., & Lin, C. (2016). Particle size effects on bioaccessible amounts of ingestible soil-borne toxic elements. Chemosphere, 159, 442-448. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.chemosphere.2016.06.034

The unified BARGE method was used to examine the effects of soil particle size on the bioaccessible amounts of potentially toxic elements in multi-contaminated soils from a closed landfill site. The results show that bioaccessible As, Al, Cd, Cr, Cu,... Read More about Particle size effects on bioaccessible amounts of ingestible soil-borne toxic elements.

Fenton process-affected transformation of roxarsone in paddy rice soils : effects on plant growth and arsenic accumulation in rice grain (2016)
Journal Article
Qin, J., Li, H., & Lin, C. (2016). Fenton process-affected transformation of roxarsone in paddy rice soils : effects on plant growth and arsenic accumulation in rice grain. Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 130, 4-10. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ecoenv.2016.03.047

Batch and greenhouse experiments were conducted to examine the effects of Fenton process on transformation of roxarsone in soils and its resulting impacts on the growth of and As uptake by a rice plant cultivar. The results show that addition of Fent... Read More about Fenton process-affected transformation of roxarsone in paddy rice soils : effects on plant growth and arsenic accumulation in rice grain.

Mobilization of soil-borne arsenic by three common organic acids : dosage and time effects (2016)
Journal Article
Onireti,, O., & Chuxia, L. (2016). Mobilization of soil-borne arsenic by three common organic acids : dosage and time effects. Chemosphere, 147, 352-360. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.chemosphere.2015.12.129

A batch experiment was conducted to investigate the mobilization of soil-borne arsenic by three common low-molecular-weight organic acids with a focus on dosage and time effects. The results show that oxalic acid behaved differently from citric acid... Read More about Mobilization of soil-borne arsenic by three common organic acids : dosage and time effects.
