Article Synopsis
- Researchers studied how cadmium (Cd) can be captured from phosphate solutions by replacing calcium carbonate (CaCO) with phosphate phases like hydroxylapatite (HAP) and tricalcium phosphate (TCP) under varying temperature and pressure conditions.
- Different advanced techniques, including atomic force microscopy and Raman spectroscopy, were used to observe the incorporation of Cd into new solid phosphate phases formed on materials like Carrara Marble and calcite crystals.
- The findings suggest that while kinetic limitations may restrict Cd capture within the marble's structure, the surface allows for efficient incorporation, offering a potential method for removing both Cd and phosphate from contaminated environments.
