title: [Dynamitic development and evolution of redox zones in pollution plume].
abstract: A box filled with sandy soil was constructed to investigate dynamitic development and evolution of redox zones in landfill leachate-polluted plume. The results indicated that with time elapsing and pollution aggravating, redox zones moved ahead slowly; Methanogenic zone/ sulfate reduction zone extended gradually, and then inert zone appeared with further pollution. During the whole course of the dynamitic development and evolvement of redox zones, concentrations of TOC, sulfide, NH4(+) -N, HCO3-, CO2 and Fe2+ increased with time and decreased with distance; concentrations of NO3- and DO decreased with time and increased with distance; SO4(2-) concentration decreased first and then increased over time; but decreased with distance. Moreover, with time elapsing and pollution aggravating, the Fe3+ content of sediments was decrease and TOC was increase. Within oxygen reduction zone, nitrate reduction zone, iron reduction zone and methanogenic zone/sulfate reduction zone, Fe3+ content of sediments accounted for 70.5% of OXC decreased to 56.3%, 41%, 28.3% and 15%, and the TOC accounted for 98.7% of RDC increased to 102.0%, 107.0%, 142.9% and 162.1%, respectively; Fe2+ mainly precipitated as FeS and FeCO3, and accounted for 80.6%, 175.6%, 377.7% and 555.1% of total Fe2+, respectively.
