Abstract
In the process of excavation and utilization of the coal gangue hill, gangue at different weathering degree was exposed to the environment, which can be harmful to the surroundings. In order to find the law of heavy metal release and to evaluate the potential ecological risk, five kinds of coal gangue at different weathering degrees were collected from a coal mine named Suncun, an over 100-year-old mine of Xinwen coal mining field located in Tai'an city, Shandong Province of China. Samples were processed with microwave digestion for total content determination of heavy metals, and another part of samples was processed by Tessier sequential extraction for chemical forms analysis. Leaching tests at various pH were carried out to investigate the release of heavy metal. The laws of transformation and release of heavy metals were discussed and potential ecological risk was evaluated. The results indicated that the weathering degree had a significant impact on the content of heavy metal. Exchangeable and carbonate fractions of Cr and Pb were a large proportion of the total and should attract great attention. Potential ecological risk was at strong level (light black) and was up to very strong level (deep black) because of Cd. But Cr had contributed the most for gray gangue, which was 71% of the total. The species of heavy metal in gangue changed due to weathering and lead to the difference of the leaching characteristic and risk.
