Hydroxyapatite (HAP) is one of the most commonly used phosphorus-containing amendments. With the development of nanotechnology, nano-hydroxyapatie (n-HAP) was gradually applied to remediate soil polluted by heavy metals. Considering the concentrations of HAP/n-HAP were not more than 5% in most studies, soil polluted by Pb was artificially prepared and three different concentrations of n-HAP: 5%, 7% and 10% by weight, were added into the Pb-polluted soil separately. The mixtures of soil and n-HAP were incubated for 180 d and sampled regularly. The bioaccessibility of Pb in soil was determined using simulated gastric juices of two in-vitro digestion tests: USPM (United States Pharmacopeia Methodology) and PBET (Physiologically-Based Extraction Test). The results showed that the immobilizing efficiency of 5% n-HAP to Pb in soil was the highest in PBET. The extractable Pb from soil by USPM was not affected by concentration of n-HAP. So, the least concentration of n-HAP, i.e. 5% n-HAP treatment, was the most cost-effective in USPM. Soil pH increased with concentration of n-HAP. However concentration of n-HAP had little effects on content of soil OM. According to regression analysis, more than 50% differences of the extractable Pb from soil by PBET can be explained by soil pH, while soil pH, organic matter content and incubation time together explained nearly 85% differences of extractable Pb from soil by USPM.展开更多
