Abstract

Based on core sampling, sequential extraction procedure in the laboratory, correlation analysis between sediments and groundwater, and mineral saturation index (SI) of groundwater, this paper explored the distribution, form and influencing factors of RIS in Quaternary sediments in the middle and lower reaches of Chaobai alluvial-proluvial fan, in Beijing. Results showed that the content of RIS in the study area followed a descending order of: Pyrite-S (CRS) > essential sulfur (ES) > acid volatile sulfide (AVS), among which CRS accounting for 80.1%, ES and AVS accounting for 13.4% and 5.56% respectively. 67% of samples had CRS/AVS value higher than 3. The RIS content in sediments in the upper reaches was lower than that in the lower reaches, and RIS contents in the four aquifers from shallow to deep were 84.3, 37.4, 39.1 and 10.5mg/kg respectively, showing an overall decreasing trend. The results of RDA and correlation analysis indicated that the TOC content, CRS/AVS value and water content in sediments were crucial factors affecting the content and form of RIS in the study area. Specifically, the content of RIS was also affected by the groundwater pH value, iron/sulfur ratio and hydrogeological conditions, and the form of RIS was affected by the COD_Mn and ORP of groundwater. The SI value of FeS in groundwater fluctuated around 0, and the SI value of FeS₂>0. In summary, RIS in the sediments of the study area is basically unaffected by human disturbance, and the activity and bioavailability of sulfide are low. The sediments may affect the concentrations of sulfate, sulfide, iron and arsenic in groundwater mainly through AVS precipitation/dissolution and ES disproportionation reaction.
