【 摘 要 】

The use of novel permeable reactive barrier (PRB) to remove and to stabilize heavy metals such as Cd and Cr from groundwater was studied. The barrier was made of fly ash, an appropriate material for high volume ion exchange. The fly ash is combined with chemicals to create activated ash material or AAM. PRB's, made from activated fly ash, AAM-PRB's, were used to treat contaminated water in situ. It was shown that the AAM-PRB was effective in removal of Cd and Cr from contaminated water, while at the same time utilizing waste fly ash that otherwise would be have to be landfilled.
