Abstract
Relative to a non-sorbing (conservative) solute, sulfate is generally less mobile in soils. Factors that affect sulfate mobility are (1) solution concentration of sulfate, (2) time of contact between sulfate solution and sorbent, (3) temperature, (4) solution pH, (5) other ionic species present, and (6) type of sorbent. These factors are discussed with reference to several pertinent experimental studies. Sorption mechanisms and studies of sulfate movement in soils are discussed as well.
