Abstract

Understanding the speciation of metal contaminants and their interactions with soils, sediments, and hazardous waste is critical both to predicting their mobility in the subsurface and to devising successful remediation approaches. Experimental-spectroscopic techniques and geochemical modeling can be coupled toward the study of metal interactions. This chapter will discuss contributions of infrared and X-ray-based techniques to study of the speciation of hexavalent chromium in two media: a Cr(VI)-contaminated soil from a plating facility and pure iron oxides—minerals that are abundant in natural soil environments, including the plating facility. The use of these techniques to inform treatment design and fate and transport models will be highlighted.
