| Abstract | Untreated arsenic polluted groundwater is threatening people health, especially the people in rural areas. Soil may become one kind of promising natural material applied conveniently in rural areas for the treatment of arsenic polluted groundwater, due to its abundance, low cost, and high adsorption efficiency. The present study investigated arsenic(V) (As(V)) adsorption on two red soil samples weathered from granite (RSG) and sandstone (RSS). The two soil samples contain similar mineral types but show relatively high differences of content of iron, aluminum, and organic matter (OM), as well as point of zero charge (pH$_{PZC}$) and specific surface area (SSA). Batch experiments were performed to examine the effect of initial As(V) concentration, solution pH, and temperature on the kinetics of the adsorption of As(V) by the two soil samples. The experimental results showed that the As(V) adsorption onto the two soil samples was influenced by the physicochemical properties of the soils, especially the content of iron and aluminum, the OM, as well as the pH$_{PZC}$, and chemisorption was the main adsorption mechanism. The RSG sample with higher content of iron and aluminum and pH$_{PZC}$ showed relatively high adsorption efficiency. The OM played a negative role in the adsorption process, especially as the As/Fe molar ratio is higher. Higher adsorption capacities for the two soil samples were both obtained at lower initial As(V) concentration (1.50 and 4.0 mg/l), lower pH value (5.0), and higher temperature (313 K). Comparing to the RSS, the RSG is more suitable for the treatment of As(V)-polluted groundwater. Considering the experimental results and the natural conditions, the suggested operational conditions are pH around 7.0, temperature 293–303 K, As(V) concentration less than 4.0 mg/l, and hydraulic retention time no less than 180 min. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
