Chromium accumulated from source water and pipeline lining materials in corrosion scales could potentially be released into bulk water in drinking water distribution systems (DWDS). Chromium behaviors between corrosion scale phase and the surrounding water phase vary spatially in different layers and temporally in different DWDS running periods. In this study, corrosion scales sampled from actual DWDS were first characterized by SEM, XRD, XRF, and the modified BCR three-step sequential extraction procedure. Then scales were divided into the outer and inner layers for subsequent analysis. Static accumulation and release experiments were performed with Cr(VI) and Cr(III) on two distinct scale layers to systematically assess the influence of pH, temperature, sulfate, and chloride. The release behaviors of Cr(VI) under the co-effect of multiple factors were investigated in orthogonal experiments. Results showed that in the outer and inner layers of corrosion scales, chromium exhibited differences in accumulation and release behaviors, with the outer layer accumulating less and releasing more. The mechanisms of chromium retention based on different iron (oxyhydr)oxides were discussed.
