Sorption of Cd<sup>2+</sup>, K<sup>+</sup>, F<sup></sup>, and Cl<sup></sup> on some tropical soils
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The potential for the retention of K + , Cd 2+ , F , and Cl by lateritic soils from the Botucatu (an important sandy aquifer in the southeastern part of Brazil) and Serra Geral (a clayey material) formations and three mixtures of these soils is examined. Batch equilibrium results are presented for both single salt (CdCl 2 and KF) and multiple salt (CdCl 2 + KF) solutions. The soil retention parameters are obtained by fitting sorption models (linear, Freundlich, and Langmuir) to the experimental isotherm plots using linear and nonlinear regression analyses. The results show that the so called varying soil:solution ratio isotherms (VSI) are in fact less variant in terms of pH than constant soil:solution isotherms (CSI). However, because of restrictions related to the VSI approach and the "soil solution ratio effect," the CSI approach is considered to be a more reasonable way of constructing sorption isotherms. It is shown that under certain conditions, the Cl anion can be sorbed while for others it is not sorbed. Sorption was observed for F and K + . The sorption of Cd 2+ is also shown to be highly sensitive to leachate chemistry. It is shown that a knowledge of pH 0 is quite important for the interpretation of sorption data.Key words: sorption, inorganic chemicals, isotherms, tropical soils.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
