施用污泥堆肥对作物和土壤的影响

污泥中的有机质、营养成分可为农业生产提供重要的有机肥源,但污泥中重金属是制约污泥农用的重要因素,为检验污泥堆肥施用后对作物及土壤的影响,文章对污泥与稻草或木屑堆肥的产品进行了盆栽试验研究。结果表明,污泥与稻草或木屑的堆肥作为肥料施用于萝卜（Ｂｒａｓｓｉｃａ ｃａｍｐｅｓｔｒｉｓ）和菜心（Ｂｒａｓｓｉｃａ ｐａｒａｃｈｉｎｅｎｓｉｓ）,产量明显提高,部分堆肥产品增产效果优于化肥,且后效明显。堆肥施用使土壤中有机质、各养分含量增加,微生物活动增强、数量增加,然而作物和土壤中的重金属含量也有不同程度的提高。

Carbon and nitrogen mineralization of sewage sludge compost in soils with a different initial pH

Soil properties may affect the decomposition of added organic materials and inorganic nitrogen (N) production in agricultural soils. Three soils, Potu (Pu), Sankengtzu (Sk) and Erhlin (Eh) soils, mixed with sewage sludge compost (SSC) at application rates of 0 (control), 25, 75 and 150 Mg ha⁻¹ were selected from Taiwan for incubation for 112 days. The aim of the present study was to examine the effects of SSC application rates on the carbon decomposition rate, N transformation and pH changes in three soils with different initial soil pH values (4.8–7.7). The results indicated that the highest peaks of the CO₂ evolution rate occurred after 3 days of incubation, for all treatments. The Pu soil (pH 4.8) had a relatively low rate of CO₂ evolution, total amounts of CO₂ evolution and percentage of added organic C loss, all of which resulted from inhibition of microbial activity under low pH. For the Pu and Sk soils, the concentration of NH₄⁺-N reached its peak after 7–14 days of incubation, which indicated that ammonification might have occurred in the two soils with low initial pH values. NO₃⁻-N rapidly accumulated in the first 7 days of incubation in the Eh soil (pH 7.7). The direction and extent of the soil pH changes were influenced by the N in the SSC and the initial soil pH. Ammonification of organic N in the SSC caused the soil pH to increase, whereas nitrification of mineralized N caused the soil pH to decline. Consequently, the initial soil pH greatly affected the rate of carbon decomposition, ammonification and nitrification of SSC.     

Nitrogen mineralization in soil amended with sewage sludge and fly ash

Summary The effect of fly ash on N mineralization in sewage sludge was studied during a 5-week aerobic incubation of soil-waste mixtures at different loading rates under controlled conditions. Periodically, the mixtures were leached with distilled water and the inorganic N released was determined in the percolates. The data were tested by an analysis of variance with repeated measures. Significant differences were found among different incubation periods and also between different treatments. The net N mineralization, expressed as a percentage of organic N added in the sludge, was drastically reduced when higher rates (500 Mg ha^-1) of fly ash were added.     

Initial organic matter transformation of soil amended with composted sewage sludge

 An incubation experiment with composted sewage sludge (CSS) just added to the soil was conducted to determine its initial effects on C decomposition, N nitrification and the transformation of organic matter. CSS was mixed with a sandy loam soil from uncultivated ochric epipedon of a Typic Haploxeralf at rates of 0, 40 and 80 t ha^–1 (dry weight). The data obtained showed that with regard to the unamended soil, both the 40 and the 80 t ha^–1 treatments produced the same result in decreasing respiratory activity, but the addition of increasing amounts of CSS progressively delayed C decomposition. The nitrification index (NI), defined as the relation between nitrate-N and nitrate-N + ammonium-N, increased in correlation with the C mineralization coefficient. Total organic matter decreased after incubation whereas the humic substances increased in relation to the total C mineralized. Received: 28 October 1999     

Runoff and losses by erosion in soils amended with sewage sludge

In order to promote the transformation of a burnt Mediterranean forest area into a dehesa system, 10 t ha⁻¹ of dry matter of the same sewage sludge in three different forms: fresh, composted and thermally‐dried, were added superficially to field plots of loam and sandy soils located on a 16 per cent slope. This application is equivalent to 13ċ8 t ha⁻¹ of composted sludge, 50 t ha⁻¹ of fresh sludge and 11ċ3 t ha⁻¹ of thermally‐dried sludge. The surface addition of a single application of thermally‐dried sludge resulted in a decrease in runoff and erosion in both kinds of soil. Runoff in thermally‐dried sludge plots was lower than in the control treatment (32 per cent for the loam soil and 26 per cent for the sandy soil). The addition of any type of sludge to both soil types also reduces sediment production. Significant differences between the control and sludge treatments indicate that the rapid development of plant cover and the direct protective effect of sludge on the soil are the main agents that influence soil erosion rates. Results suggest that the surface application of thermally‐dried sludge is the most efficient way to enhance soil infiltration. Copyright © 2003 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Nitrogen mineralization in soils amended with composted and uncomposted poultry litter

Abstract

When applied to land, poultry litter can be a valuable source of plant macro‐ and micro‐nutrients. However, if poultry litter is overapplied, then its mineralized nitrogen (N) can contaminate ground and surface waters. Composting poultry litter may slow down the rate of N mineralization thereby reducing the risk of environmental pollution. The objective of this work was to determine if N mineralization from composted poultry litter is slower than that from uncomposted poultry litter when these materials are mixed with soil. Two composted broiler litters, one composted hen manure, and two uncomposted broiler litters were mixed with Dothan loamy sand (pH 4.3) and Hiwassee fine sandy loam (pH 5.5), and incubated at 25°C for 56 d. Subsamples for inorganic N determinations were taken at 1, 2, 4, 7, 14, 21, 28, and 56 d. After 56 d, the proportion of organic N mineralized ranged from 0.4 to 5.8% for the composted materials, and from 25.4 to 39.8% for uncomposted broiler litters. These results indicate that composted poultry litter releases N more slowly than uncomposted poultry litter, and therefore poses less environmental risk than uncomposted poultry litter.     

Heavy metals in mine soils amended with sewage sludge

In order to reclaim a clay quarry, a topsoil material was mixed with gravelly spoil at different ratios and with various rates of sewage sludge. The influence of three spoil/topsoil ratios (1:1, 2:1 and 3:1) and three sludge rates (40, 80 and 120 t ha⁻¹) on chemical properties of the resulting material was investigated, with emphasis on heavy metal (Fe, Cu, Mn, Ni and Zn) contents. The mixtures topsoil/spoil/sludge were water saturated and incubated for 15 or 30 days in a chamber under controlled conditions. The incubated samples were analysed for pH, total carbon and nitrogen, and total, available, exchangeable and soluble heavy metals. The addition of spoil to the topsoil increased the volume of material available, by utilizing an inert material unsuitable by itself to grow plants. The addition of sewage sludge repaired the disadvantages of the spoil, increasing the pH and the organic matter contents. The total heavy metal contents in the mixtures followed the sequence Fe>>Mn>>Zn, Cu>Ni. All except Cu were within the ranges allowed for agricultural lands. The available heavy metals constituted a small fraction of total contents and decrease with time due to complexation and immobilization processes. The exchangeable and soluble fractions were almost negligible; only small amounts of Mn, Zn and Cu were detected. Therefore, the risk of contamination by heavy metals is insignificant in the conditions investigated. Copyright © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Nitrogen mineralization dynamics in acid vineyard soils amended with bentonite winery waste

An excess of available nitrogen (N) in vineyard soil is considered detrimental for vine growth, making a thorough assessment of N mineralization dynamics in vineyard soils before the addition of winery waste necessary. This study assesses the changes in N mineralization in acid vineyard soils amended with bentonite winery waste (BW). Non-amended soil (control), BW and soil-waste mixtures (SBWM) with a low (+L) or high (+H) dose of BW were incubated for six weeks. After 7, 14, 21 and 42 days of incubation, the control soils, BW and SBWM were analysed for net ammonified N, net nitrified N and net mineralized N. Parameters related to the kinetics of N mineralization were also determined. The addition of BW increased the potentially mineralizable N (N₀) in the amended soils (58–144% for the highest BW dose), although the mineralization rate was governed by the soil characteristics. Mineralizable N was only a small fraction (<4%) of the total organic nitrogen added to the soil through the BW addition, mainly due to the dominance of the nitrification process in the BW amended soils. These experimental results suggest that the addition of BW may be a suitable amendment for nitrogen fertilization in acid vineyard soil.     

Nitrogen mineralization of leguminous crops in soils

Organic‐N production by legumes is a key benefit of growing cover crops and green manures. A soil sample was mixed with legume residue commonly used as green manure in Kenya at a rate of 500 mg N (kg soil)^–1. Silica sand equal to the weight of the soils was added and mixed thoroughly. The mixture was packed in a leaching tube and leached with 100 mL of 5 mM of CaCl₂ ^. 2H₂O and incubated at 30°C. The leaching was repeated every 2 weeks for a total of 16 weeks and analyzed for N as NH , NO , and NO . Five legume residues and five different soils were used in this study. Nitrogen mineralization of the legume residues conformed to an exponential model. Application of a two‐components exponential model showed two phases of N mineralization. The relationship between the organic N remaining after each incubation period and time of incubation was controlled by two first‐order reactions. The initial fast rate (k₁) changed to a slow rate (k₂) at incubation times ranging from 2 to 8 weeks, depending on the legume residue and the soil used. The percentage of N in each phase varied among the legume residue and soils. Linear regression analyses showed that net cumulative amounts of N mineralized from individual legume residues was significantly correlated with the total polyphenols and polyphenol‐to‐N ratios for two soils. Nitrogen mineralization of dolichos and field bean was significantly and negatively correlated with clay and sand, respectively; of field bean and alfalfa was significantly correlated with C_mic; and of dolichos significantly but negatively correlated with the total N and organic N in soils. Linear regression analysis of the pooled data showed that net cumulative amounts of N mineralized and percentage N mineralized were significantly correlated with C : N ratios of the residues (r = 0.44 and 0.48 at p < 0.05, respectively), and that net cumulative N mineralized was significantly correlated with (lignin + polyphenols)‐to‐N ratios (r = 0.41 at p < 0.05) and with lignin contents (r = 0.61 at p < 0.001).     

施用辐照处理的污水污泥对作物产量和土壤氮的影响

A field experiment was conducted to study the feasibility of irradiated and non-irradiated sewage sludge as a fertilizer for the growth of wheat and rice. The irradiated and non-irradiated sewage sludge were applied at rates of 0 (CK), 75, 150, 225 and 300 kg N ha^-1 for wheat, and 0 (CK), 112.5, 225, 337.5 and 450 kg N ha^-1 for rice, respectively. (NH₄)₂SO₄ at a rate of 150 kg N ha^-1 for wheat, and 225 kg N ha^-1 for rice were added to the control treatments. Additionally, 20 kg ¹⁵N ha^-1 in the form of (NH₄)₂SO₄ was added to each treatment for wheat to study the effect of sewage sludge on chemical nitrogen fertilizer recovery. The results showed that the irradiation of sewage sludge by gamma ray at a dosage of 5 kGy increased crop yield by 11%~27% as compared to the non-irradiated treatments. Irradiation stimulated mineralization of organic nitrogen in the sludge and improved seedling growth. It was found that addition of irradiated sludge could reduce the leaching loss of chemical nitrogen fertilizer. Both irradiated and non-irradiated sewage sludge could increase the content of soil total nitrogen. Based on the preliminary results, it was concluded that irradiated sewage sludge could partly substitute for chemical nitrogen fertilizer in crop production.
