abstract = {The spatial distribution of total and cacl2-extracted cd, pb and zn concentrations in smelter-impacted soils was investigated over a polluted site (40 km2) in northern france. the study was conducted on 262 soils sampled in woody habitats. total and extracted concentrations of trace metals (tms) rose up to 2402 and 59.5 mg kg1 for cd, 41 960 and 13.7 mg kg1 for pb, 38 760 and 143.0 mg kg1 for zn, respectively. the spatial dependence of both total and extracted concentrations showed a high spatial auto-correlation and ordinary kriging was used to predict soil concentrations. investigating which variables influenced metal concentrations and their spatial distribution, we found that total concentrations mostly depended on the distance from the smelter, the wind and the organic carbon, while extracted concentrations were mainly modulated by the ph. conditionally to those variables, other soil properties and landscape characteristics influenced both total and extracted concentrations. we conclude that total and extracted tm concentrations are governed by different processes which act at various spatial ranges: total concentrations are mainly related to input and retention of metals (large scale) whereas extracted concentrations were mainly explained by factors controlling metal solubility in soils (local scale). spatial distributions of total and extracted tms differed over the area, which should be considered for risk assessment. maps of risk based on the us epa’s eco-ssls (for plants, invertebrates and vertebrates) were realized, showing that wildlife may be at risk but that the relevance of eco-ssl values is questionable.},

abstract = {The aim of this work is to investigate the effect of the addition of cu, cd, ni, pb and zn nitrate salts on the compressive strength of a cem i portland cement. concentrations of 0.018 or 0.18 mol/kg of cement of each trace element were tested. after 2 days age, the compressive strength was reduced by various extents by addition of heavy metals, with the exception of ni. this difference is due to a delay in tricalcium silicate hydration (c3s) as shown by an isothermal calorimetry test. trace elements also influence the 28-days compressive strength, whereas the measured degree of hydration of these cement pastes is the same. as shown by scanning electron microscopy and x-ray diffraction, cu and pb are predominantly absorbed in the calcium silicate hydrate gel (c–s–h) while cd, ni and zn are mainly precipitated as hydroxides within the intergranular porosity. thus, trace elements precipitated as hydroxides have only a slight effect on the compressive strength. in contrast, cu and pb cause an increase in mechanical resistance by changing the c–s–h nanometric assembly and its density},

abstract = {Earthworms (eisenia andrei) were exposed, in controlled conditions, to metal-contaminated soils previously treated in situ with two types of fluidized bed combustion ashes. effects on this species were determined by life history traits analysis. metal immobilizing efficiency of ashes was indicated by metal bioaccumulation. ashes-treated soils reduced worm mortality compared to the untreated soil. however, these ashes reduced both cocoon hatching success and hatchlings numbers compared to the untreated soil. in addition, sulfo-calcical ashes reduced or delayed worm maturity and lowered cocoon production compared to silico-alumineous ones. metal immobilizing efficiency of ashes was demonstrated for zn, cu and to a lesser extent pb. only silico-alumineous ashes reduced cd bioaccumulation, although cd was still bioconcentrated. thus, although ash additions to metal-contaminated soils may help in immobilizing metals, their use might result, depending on the chemical nature of ashes, to severe detrimental effects on earthworm reproduction with possible long term consequences to populations.},
