| Abstract | The aims of the study were 1) to assess the suitability of selected amendments for reducing the mobility of metals in sediments by evaluating their effects on metal sorption capacity, and 2) to assess the ecotoxicity of sediment/ amendment mixtures. Three different amendments were tested: cellulose waste, biochar, and dolomite. The efficiency of metal immobilization in mixtures was dependent on pH, which increased with concentrations of amendment. The higher negative charge observed for dolomite and cellulose waste corresponded with greater attraction of cations and enhanced metal sorption. For cellulose waste, the highest values of the Q parameter were attributed to the presence of OH groups, which corresponded with the highest immobilization of metals. Biochar reduced the negative surface charge, which highlights the importance of additional factors such as high specific surface area and volume of pores in metal immobilization. All amendments increased the SSA and V N2 , indicating a higher number of sorption sites for metal immobilization. Most bioassays established a reduction of the ecotoxicity for amendments. Mixtures with dolomite (25%, 45% doses) and biochar (45% dose) were low toxic. Mixtures with cellulose waste were toxic or highly toxic. The mobility of metals from contaminated sediments can be limited by reused industry side products, which could contribute to further closing the circular economy loop. |
