This research aims to investigate the performance and mechanisms of Cd(II) removal using phosphate-modified natural pyrite.
Evaluation of heavy metal immobilization using natural pyrite
Modification of pyrite with phosphate
Analysis of Cd(II) removal efficiency
Performance of phosphate-modified natural pyrite improved Cd(II) removal
Natural abundance of pyrite supports large-scale applicability
Low surface area of untreated pyrite limits effectiveness
Abstract
Natural pyrite possesses inherent advantages for heavy metal immobilization due to its natural abundance and reductive sulfur content, yet its effectiveness is limited by a low surface area and scarce...
