Abstrakt: The article presents a study which quantifies the kinetic adsorption and desorption of nickel (Ni) in soils that have different properties. It states that the multireaction model's predictive capability was also assessed to describe the retention, as well as the Ni's desorption and release behavior in soils. It describes the properties of several types of surface soils used in the study including Olivier loam, a common alluvium soil, Webster loam, a type of soil formed in glacial till, and the Windsor loam, a sandy loam soil. It states that kinetic retention was used to measure Ni adsorption and desorption isotherms. The results showed that the mechanism of Ni in soil depends on its complexation and binding strength when reacting with the soils.
