Dynamics of Fe, Mn, and Al Liberated from Contaminated Soil by Low-Molecular-Weight Organic Acids and Their Effects on the Release of Soil-Borne Trace Elements

A 15-day batch experiment was conducted to investigate the behaviours of Fe, Mn, and Al oxides upon attack by three common low-molecular-weight organic acids, and their effects on liberation of trace elements from a multi-contaminated soil. While the capacity of malic acid to mobilize soil-borne Fe,...
