摘要：Solidification and stabilization (S/S) by agents and stabilizers is an effective way to treat heavy metal-contaminated sediments. Optimization of curing condition is crucial to minimize the consumption of reagents on the base of effective S/S. In this work, the synergistic effects of cement and stabilizer on mechanical strength and leaching toxicity of contaminated sediments were investigated, and the S/S conditions were optimized using response surface methodology. On the basis of a single-factor test, multi-factor experiments were conducted to fit the relationship between the S/S effect of contaminated sediments and the amount of cement and stabilizer. The mechanism of stabilization was investigated by the results from the revised BCR method. The results indicate that the optimal curing conditions were 44.29% of cement content with 2.05% of trimercapto-s-triazine trisodium salt (TMT). After 28 days of curing, the compressive strength reached 2.07 MPa and the leaching concentrations of Cd, Cu, and Pb were 0.094 mg/L, 0.031 mg/L, and 0.173 mg/L, respectively, which met the requirement of in-situ resource recycling standard. The stability of heavy metals was significantly improved as a result of the removal of acid extractable fraction (15.58~69.92%) and an increase in the residual fraction (18.27~49.07%).
