螯合剂对油葵修复镉砷复合污染土壤的影响

为提高油葵对农田土壤重金属的提取效率,研究了不同螯合剂(NTA、EGTA、EDDS和EDTA)对油葵修复Cd、As复合污染农田土壤的影响。结果表明,施用4种不同螯合剂对油葵根、茎、叶、花盘和籽粒生物量影响不大。不同螯合剂对油葵各器官Cd、As含量和积累量影响不一样。与CK处理相比,施用NTA、EGTA、EDDS、EDTA导致油葵花盘Cd含量分别提高30.2%、55.1%、41.9%和43.3%,根系As含量分别提高23.6%、18.1%、15.6%和15.4%,但是对籽粒和茎中Cd含量影响不显著。施用NTA、EGTA、EDDS和EDTA处理使油葵植株总Cd积累量分别比CK处理提高32.8%、45.3%、40.5%和41.6%,而对油葵As积累量没有显著影响。4种螯合剂对油葵各器官Cd、As富集系数有不同影响,而对Cd、As转运系数影响不显著。施用EDTA处理使根际土壤Cd含量比CK处理降低25.0%,施用NTA和EDTA处理使根际土壤As含量分别降低18.1%和14.3%。4种螯合剂均可以提高油葵对Cd、As污染土壤的修复效率。     

三聚磷酸钠与柠檬酸复合强化蜈蚣草修复砷污染土壤

为研究化学活化剂三聚磷酸钠和柠檬酸配合施用对蜈蚣草萃取砷效率的影响,通过模拟实验,在含砷57.7 mg·kg^-1的水稻土中,探究了单一活化剂（三聚磷酸钠0.75 g·kg^-1土,柠檬酸0.75 g·kg^-1土）和三聚磷酸钠与柠檬酸配合施用（三聚磷酸钠：柠檬酸=0.375 g·kg^-1土：0.375 g·kg^-1土）对土壤有效态砷含量变化的影响;采用盆栽实验,探究了三聚磷酸钠和柠檬酸配合施用（三聚磷酸钠：柠檬酸=0.187 5 g·kg^-1土：0.187 5 g·kg^-1土）对蜈蚣草地上部萃取土壤砷的影响。模拟实验结果表明,与单一活化剂相比,三聚磷酸钠和柠檬酸配合施用对土壤砷的活化效果更显著。盆栽实验结果表明：与对照组相比,三聚磷酸钠和柠檬酸配合施用可使蜈蚣草羽叶干质量提高21.8%以上,砷萃取总量提高40.4%以上;根际土总砷含量下降,土壤脲酶和脱氢酶活性显著增加。研究表明在砷污染土壤施加三聚磷酸钠和柠檬酸,由于其提高了蜈蚣草植物干质量和土壤有效态砷含量,羽叶萃取砷效率明显提高。     

外源硒对萘胁迫下车前草生长及土壤修复能力的影响

为研究土壤多环芳烃植物修复技术,以萘为典型低分子量多环芳烃代表性污染物,选取车前草(Plantago asiatica L.)为潜在的修复治理植物,通过盆栽模拟试验,探讨外源硒的添加(0.2 mg·kg-1)对萘污染(0、50、200、800 mg·kg-1)条件下的车前草生长、生理特征及土壤修复效果的影响。研究结果显示,在不同浓度萘作用下,车前草生物量、根系形态(根表面积、根体积、根尖数、平均直径)和萘的去除率随土壤萘含量的增加而降低,根部丙二醛(MDA)、谷胱甘肽(GSH)含量和过氧化氢酶(CAT)活性则升高。硒的加入缓解了萘的胁迫作用,使得植物生物量和根系形态较无硒组增加了10.7%以上,MDA含量降低了8.4%～15.8%,过氧化氢酶(CAT)活性提高了4.0%～13.4%,谷胱甘肽(GSH)含量增加了13.1%～33.3%,土壤萘的去除率提高了0.5%～11.6%。结果表明,土壤中的萘抑制了车前草的生长,降低了其对萘的修复效率,而适量浓度的硒可以缓解萘对车前草胁迫,提高其对萘的耐受性,从而增强车前草的植物修复效率。     

Lantana camara——an Ecological Bioindicator Plant for Decontamination of Pb-Impaired Soil Under Organic Waste-Supplemented Scenarios

Heavy metal extraction and processing from ores releases elements into the environment. Soil, being an "unfortunate" sink, has its bionomics impaired and affected by metal pollution. Metals sneak into the food chain and pose risk to humans and other edaphicdependent organisms. For decontamination, the use of an ecosystem-friendly approach involving plants is known as phytoremediation.In this study, different lead(Pb) concentrations(80, 40, 20, and 10 mg kg~(-1)) were used to contaminate a well-characterized soil,(un)supplemented with organic waste empty fruit bunch(EFB) or spent mushroom compost(SMC), with non-edible plant—Lantana camara. Lead removal by L. camara ranged from 45.51% to 88.03% for supplemented soil, and from 23.7% to 57.8% for unsupplemented soil(P 0.05). The EFB-supplemented and L. camara-remediated soil showed the highest counts of heavy metal-resistant bacteria(HMRB)(79.67 × 10~6–56.0 × 10~6 colony forming units(CFU) g~(-1) soil), followed by SMC-supplemented and L. camara-remediated soil(63.33 × 10~6–39.0 × 10~6 CFU g~(-1) soil). Aerial metal uptake ranged from 32.08 ± 0.8 to 5.03 ± 0.08 mg kg~(-1) dry weight, and the bioaccumulation factor ranged from 0.401 to 0.643(P 0.05). Half-lives(t_(1/2)) of Pb were 7.24–2.26 d in supplemented soil,18.39–11.83 d in unsupplemented soil, and 123.75–38.72 d in the soil without plants and organic waste. Freundlich isotherms showed that the intensity of metal absorption(n) ranged from 2.44 to 2.51 for supplemented soil, with regression coefficients of determination(R~2) between 0.901 2 and 0.984 0. The computed free-energy change(?G) for Pb absorption ranged from -5.01 to 0.49 kJ mol~(-1) K~(-1) for EFB-supplemented soil and -3.93 to 0.49 k J mol~(-1) K~(-1) for SMC-supplemented soil.

Intercropping with hyperaccumulator plants decreases the cadmium accumulation in grape seedlings

In this experiment, four cadmium (Cd) hyperaccumulator species (Crassocephalum crepidioides, Galinsoga parviflora, Sigesbeckia orientalis, and Solanum nigrum) were intercropped with grape (Vitis vinifera) cuttings together in Cd-containated soil to study the effects of intercropping with the Cd-hyperaccumulator plants on growth and Cd accumulation of grape seedlings. Compared with the monoculture, intercropping with S. nigrum increased the biomass of grape seedlings, but intercropping with the other three hyperaccumulator species decreased the grape seedling biomass. Intercropping with S. nigrum increased chlorophyll a and total chlorophyll contents in leaves of grape seedlings compared with the monoculture, whereas intercropping with the other three hyperaccumulator species showed either a decrease or no effect. Intercropping with hyperaccumulator plants had no significant effects on chlorophyll b and carotenoid contents in leaves of grape seedlings compared with the monoculture. Compared with the monoculture, intercropping with C. crepidioides, G. parviflora, S. nigrum and S. orientalis significantly decreased Cd contents in shoots of grape seedlings by 78.7%, 12.7%, 29.8% and 26.5%, respectively. Therefore, intercropping with hyperaccumulator plants can decrease Cd accumulation in grape, and intercropping with S. nigrum can also promote grape seedling growth.     

不同氮素水平对重金属胁迫下紫茎泽兰生长及重金属吸收的影响

以紫茎泽兰为对象,采用水培法研究无氮、低氮、中氮、高氮4个氮素水平对Pb、Zn、Cu、Cd等4种重金属胁迫条件下紫茎泽兰生长和重金属吸收的影响。结果表明:低氮水平下,紫茎泽兰多数生长参数显著高于其他试验组;中氮水平下,紫茎泽兰POD、CAT、可溶性蛋白、可溶性糖、脯胺酸和叶绿素含量显著较高。低氮水平有利于紫茎泽兰根、茎和叶器官对Pb、Zn和Cd的吸收,试验组紫茎泽兰根器官中Pb、Zn和Cd累积量显著高于茎和叶。说明紫茎泽兰对重金属胁迫具有一定的抗逆性,低氮、中氮水平提高了紫茎泽兰对重金属的耐受性和吸收能力。可考虑将紫茎泽兰用于重金属污染的生态修复。     

Autochthonous halotolerant plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria promote bacoside A yield of Bacopa monnieri (L.) Nash and phytoextraction of salt-affected soil

Phytoremediation is a promising approach for reclamation of salt-affected soil. Phytoextraction is the most commonly used process, which exploits plants to absorb, immobilize, and accumulate salt in their shoots. In this study, halotolerant plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) were isolated from the rhizosphere of wild grasses growing naturally in salt-affected areas of Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh (India) and were tested for their efficacies of salt-tolerance and plant growth-promoting (PGP) abilities. Based on 16S rRNA sequences, the most efficient halotolerant isolates possessing PGP traits were identified as Pseudomonas plecoglossicida (KM233646), Acinetobacter calcoaceticus (KM233647), Bacillus flexus (KM233648), and Bacillus safensis (KM233652). Application of these isolates as bio-inoculants significantly (P < 0.05) increased the growth and bacoside A yield of a medicinal plant, Bacopa monnieri (L.) Nash, grown on natural salt-affected soil. The phytoremediation of salt-affected soil was evident by the substantial increase in shoot Na⁺:K⁺ ratio of bio-inoculant-treated plants. When compared to un-inoculated control plants, the soil physico-chemical properties of bio-inoculant-treated plants were improved. The shoot and root biomass (fresh and dry weights), soil enzymes, and soil nutrient parameters showed significant positive correlations with the shoot Na⁺:K⁺ ratio. Consequently, the halotolerant PGPR screened in this study could be useful for the reclamation of saline soils concomitant with improved plant growth and bacoside A yield.

Remediation of Fly Ash Dumpsites Through Bioenergy Crop Plantation and Generation: A Review

Utilization of fly ash, a byproduct of coal combustion in thermal power plants, is a sustainable use of waste for power generation. Discarding fly ash as waste in landfills/ash ponds may not only be regarded as a loss of valuable land and essential nutrients, but also pose a significant health hazard due to fine air-borne particles and leaching of heavy metals. The presence of essential macro- and micronutrients and its porosity make fly ash an excellent soil amendment for plant growth as an organic nitrogen (N) and carbon (C) supplementation. As harmful heavy metals make fly ash unsafe for agronomy, bioenergy crop plantation and energy generation from different thermochemical conversions of the biomass would be an ideal method for coal fly ash utilization through which carbon-neutral fuel can be generated from fossil fuel, thus reducing climate change impact. This review summarizes the development of bioenergy plantation and silviculture at fly ash dumpsites with an integrated phyto-bio-rhizo-mycoremediation approach and assesses utilization of the valuable biomass for thermal energy, electricity, and biofuel generation with inclusion of a SWOT analysis (a strategic technique typically used to help identify the strength, weakness, opportunities, and threat). Bioenergy crop production through integrated phytomanagement can generate billions of dollars of wealth from waste and provides a sustainable solution for fly ash management, with environmental, economic, and social benefits.
