The use of urban organic wastes in the control of erosion in a semiarid Mediterranean soil

Abstract. A two year field experiment was carried out in a semiarid Mediterranean area in order to evaluate, the effect on soil erosion of adding different urban organic wastes: a stabilized municipal waste (compost), an unstabilized municipal waste, and an aerobic sewage sludge. All the treatments significantly reduced soil erosion, compared to the control soil. The soil amended with compost was the most effective treatment, reducing soil loss by 94% and runoff by 54%.     

我国商品有机肥和有机废弃物中重金属、养分和盐分状况

【目的】 分析我国主要菜区商品有机肥和有机废弃物的重金属、养分和盐分状况,为蔬菜高效安全施肥和菜田土壤质量改善提供一定的理论依据。【方法】 针对全国主要菜区包括北方6省（市）和南方12省（市）典型商品有机肥和有机废弃物展开调查,取样时间是2014年1月上旬,共采取商品有机肥样品126个和有机废弃物样品255个,对3类商品有机肥和5类有机废弃物中重金属、养分和盐分状况进行了研究。【结果】 1）按照我国现有的NY525-2012有机肥料中重金属限量标准,商品鸡粪中Cd、Pb和Cr超标率分别为10.3%、17.2%和17.2%,商品猪粪中Cd和As超标率分别为20.0%和6.7%,其它商品有机肥中Cr、Cd、As和Hg超标率分别为13.4%、2.4%、2.4%和2.4%;鸡粪中Cd、As和Hg超标率分别为2.4%、7.1%和2.4%,猪粪中Cd、Pb、As和Hg超标率分别为1.5%、3.1%、15.4%和1.5%,牛粪中Cd和Hg超标率分别为1.7%和1.7%,羊粪中Cd超标率为12.5%,其它有机废弃物中Cr和As超标率分别为4.5%和13.6%。现在的畜禽粪便与传统有机肥已经大不相同,尤其是鸡粪和猪粪中Cu、Zn含量远高于上个世纪90年代初,分别增加1.5~16.2倍和1.3~4.7倍。2）商品有机肥中全氮含量、全钾含量和氮磷钾总含量较有机废弃物平均分别高出51.2%、32.0%和15.0%,有机废弃物中全磷含量、有机质含量、C/N比值和C/P比值较商品有机肥平均分别高出23.7%、41.5%、22.7%和15.2%。商品有机肥中,商品猪粪的全磷含量、有机质含量和C/N比值均相对较高,其它商品有机肥的全氮含量、全钾含量、氮磷钾总含量和C/P比值均相对较高;有机废弃物中,鸡粪和猪粪的全氮含量、全磷含量和氮磷钾总含量均相对较高,鸡粪、羊粪和其它有机废弃物的全钾含量相对较高,猪粪、牛粪和羊粪的有机质含量相对较高,牛粪的C/N比值相对较高,牛粪和羊粪的C/P比值相对较高。3）商品有机肥的EC值（平均23.5 mS/cm,n=126）较有机废弃物（平均7.7 mS/cm,n=255）高出2.1倍。商品有机肥中其它商品有机肥的EC值很高,其次是商品猪粪,商品鸡粪的EC值相对较低;有机废弃物中鸡粪和其它有机废弃物的EC值相对较高,其次是羊粪,猪粪和牛粪的EC值相对较低。【结论】 商品鸡粪以Cd、Pb和Cr超标为主,商品猪粪以Cd和As超标为主,其它商品有机肥以Cr超标为主;猪粪、鸡粪和其它有机废弃物以As超标为主,羊粪以Cd超标为主。商品有机肥中全氮含量、全钾含量和氮磷钾总含量均高于有机废弃物,有机废弃物中全磷含量、有机质含量、C/N比值和C/P比值均高于商品有机肥。商品有机肥的EC值远高于有机废弃物。     

Chemical extractability of heavy metals during and after long-term applications of sewage sludge to soil

Sequential extractions were used on soils from a long-term experiment treated with either metal-contaminated sewage sludge or inorganic fertilizers between 1942 and 1961. The four extracts employed were CaCl₂, NaOH, EDTA and aqua regia. These showed that large increases in the proportions of Pb, Cu, Zn, Ni and Cd in at least one of the first three fractions occurred during the first 10 years of sewage sludge additions. Cr always remained predominantly in the aqua regia-soluble fraction. For 30 years after this, including a period of more than 20 years after application of sludges to the field had ceased, there was very little change in the percentage of each metal extracted by each reagent. Although the ‘residual’ (aqua regia-soluble) and EDTA fractions usually contained the largest amounts of metals in either sludge- or fertilizer-treated soils, there were clear differences between the metals: Pb represented the largest fraction of any metal extracted by EDTA, Cu of any metal extracted by NaOH and Cd of any metal extracted by CaCl₂. The same extractions were made of the sewage sludges that were applied to the field, and the distributions of the metals differed from those found in the treated soils. It was particularly apparent that more Pb and Cu was present as the ‘residual’ (aqua regia) fraction in sludges than in the soils.     

Soil metal immobilization and ryegrass uptake of lead, copper and zinc as affected by application of organic materials as soil amendments in a short-term greenhouse trial

Green waste compost, peat, coir and wood bark were applied to metal-contaminated mine waste at the rates of 1%, 10% and 20% on dry weight basis, and perennial ryegrass grown over a period of 6 weeks. Addition of amendments led to increased biomass yield in all soils when compared with the non-amended soil. EDTA extractable Pb, Cu and Zn was significantly reduced in amended soil, while leaf and root metal concentrations were also significantly reduced by the application of amendments, especially at applied rates of 10% and 20%. Coir, green waste compost and wood bark stood out as amendments which were consistent in reducing soil extractable and plant tissue Pb, Cu and Zn; while peat rates above 10% enhanced solubility of Cu and Zn because of a lowering of the soil pH.     

Nitrogen uptake by ryegrass from organic wastes applied to a sandy loam soil

Sandy‐textured Mediterranean soils are invariably depleted in organic matter and supply only small amounts of N to crops. To compensate for these deficiencies, we tested the N supply from six organic wastes applied to a Cambic Arenosol in pots growing ryegrass. The results showed that the behaviour of the wastes in supplying N to a ryegrass crop grown in this soil can be predicted by observing their performance in laboratory aerobic incubations. The N made available during these incubations fitted well to a one‐pool kinetic model.     

Plant availability of heavy metals in a soil amended with a high dose of sewage sludge under drought conditions

The objective of this research was to study the effect of water deficit on soil heavy metal availability and metal uptake by ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum Lam.) plants grown in a soil amended with a high dose of rural sewage sludge. Three fertility treatments were applied: sewage sludge (SS), mineral fertilizer (M), and control (C); unamended). The levels of irrigation were: well-watered (W) and water deficit (D). Microbial respiration decreased the total organic C (TOC) in sludge-treated soils, but this did not enhance soil DTPA-extractable heavy metal concentrations. Indeed, Zn, Cu, Mn and Ni availability decreased during the experiment. C- and M-treated soils showed either no changes or increases of some trace element concentrations during the incubation. In the plant experiment, ryegrass dry matter (DM) yield, relative water content (RWC) and leaf water potential (_w) decreased in drought conditions. Sludge addition increased metal concentrations in plants. However, in some instances, SS-treated plants showed either similar or lower transfer coefficient (Tc) values than did plants in the C and M treatments. Water deficit decreased the concentration and the Tc of some metals in roots of M and SS plants. Results indicate that sludge-borne heavy metals were maintained in chemical forms of low availability. The lower metal uptake by SS and M plants under dry conditions cannot be attributed to a lower availability of these elements in soil.     

Microbial biomass,activity, and organic matter accumulation in soils contaminated with heavy metals

Chemical characteristics and some parameters related to biological components were determined in 16 soils from a fairly homogeneous area in the north of Italy, contaminated with different levels of heavy metals. Correlation analysis of the parameters studied showed close positive relationships among the metals and with the organic C content in the soils studied. Negative relationships were observed among the heavy metals, soil respiration, and the ratio between evolved CO₂–C and microbial biomass C per unit time (specific respiratory activity). This was ascribed to an adverse heavy metal effect on the soil microflora, which appeared to increase the accumulation of organic matter as the heavy metal content increased, probably because the biomass was less effective in mineralising soil organic matter under these conditions.     

On the determination of total heavy metal content in saline soils and soils rich in organic matter

Abstract

Methods of soil decomposition for determination of heavy metal total content were considered. Two saline soils (chloride and sulphate solonchak solonetz) and one rich in organic matter were uzed for investigation. It has been established that decomposition by using HF‐HCl with a preliminary ignition at 500°C is a very suitable method. The type of the studied soils and the results obtained allow for this method to be recommended for decomposition of various soils.

On the basis of experiments with modelled soils it has been proved that possibilities for heavy metal losses on ignition are created when NaCl content and the percentage of weakly bound heavy metals (water‐soluble, exchangeable, etc.) are high. Under the conditions of the experiment (acid soils ‐ pH 4.3 and 5.0) losses of Zn and Pb but not of Cu have been incurred. Although these cases are not typical, this requires the applicability of the method for such particular occasions to be checked.     

不同有机物料还田对农田系统净温室气体排放的影响

农业有机物料的循环利用不但能解决自身对环境的污染问题、为农田提供养分,而且对增加土壤碳库、减少温室气体(GHG)排放和应对气候变化也发挥着重要作用。该文选用来自5个涉农系统的有机物料(秸秆、沼渣、菌渣、酒渣和猪粪)进行还田,以单施化肥为对照,基于田间定位试验,研究不同有机物料还田对农田土壤碳库、土壤温室气体排放的影响,在此基础上采用土壤碳库法对农田系统净温室气体排放(NGHGE)进行综合评价。2013-2015年的结果表明:1)与无机肥对照相比,有机物料还田均不同程度地提高农田土壤固碳能力,2013-2015年平均提高0-20cm土壤碳储量63.52%,其中秸秆、沼渣、菌渣、酒渣和猪粪分别比无机肥提高33.13%、86.34%、75.97%、52.66%和69.48%,来自农田系统外的几种有机物料还田效果优于秸秆,更有利于土壤碳储量的增加。2)除秸秆外,有机物料还田均不同程度地增加土壤温室气体排放,与无机肥对照相比,土壤增温潜势(GWPsoil)平均增幅达到67.23%,其中,沼渣、菌渣、酒渣和猪粪处理的土壤GWPsoil分别比秸秆还田处理高30.23%、27.84%、62.10%和52.55%,秸秆还田低于酒渣和猪粪处理(P0.05)。3)各处理的NGHGE均为正值,代表各处理均为温室气体的源,但是,除了菌渣还田处理的NGHGE高于无机肥之外,其他有机物料还田的NGHGE显著低于无机肥处理(P0.05),秸秆、沼渣、酒渣和猪粪的NGHGE分别比无机肥低52.78%、56.30%、54.19%和90.35%,说明猪粪、沼渣和酒渣经过农田系统外循环后还田之后减少温室效应效果优于直接还田的秸秆。综合显示,农业有机物料的循环利用有利于土壤碳储量的增加,除了菌渣之外,猪粪、沼渣、酒渣和秸秆还田虽均增加了土壤温室气体排放,综合土壤固碳和排放,整个农田系统的净温室气体排放还是减少了。     

不同有机废弃物对土壤磷吸附能力及有效性的影响

城郊农地是循环有机废弃物的重要场所,但长期施用畜禽粪和城市污泥可引起土壤磷素积累、磷饱和度提高,增加土壤向环境流失磷的风险。为了解施用不同来源的有机废弃物对城郊耕地土壤磷素化学行为的影响,选择4种不同磷含量的土壤,探讨在等量磷素情况下,施用KH2PO4、猪粪/稻草秸秆堆肥、沼渣、猪粪、鸡粪、生活垃圾堆肥和2种污泥等不同磷源时,土壤有效磷含量及磷吸附能力的差异。结果表明,施用有机废弃物增加了土壤有效磷和水溶性磷含量,降低了土壤对磷的吸附能力,但影响程度因有机废弃物来源而异。施用猪粪/稻草秸秆堆肥和猪粪降低土壤磷最大吸附量比例(9.03%~15.60%)与施KH2PO4(10.59%~16.63%)相当,但施用沼渣、鸡粪和生活垃圾堆肥降低土壤磷最大吸附量的比例(5.09%~9.84%)明显低于施KH2PO4;施用2种污泥降低土壤磷最大吸附量的比例(4.32%~6.77%)最小。不同有机废弃物对土壤有效磷的影响差异较小,但对水溶性磷的影响较大。施用有机废弃物后,土壤磷最大吸附量的下降值与施用有机废弃物中铁、铝、钙含量呈负相关;土壤水溶性磷的变化量与施用有机废弃物后土壤交换性钙的增加量呈负相关,表明有机废弃物中铁、铝和钙等矿质成分的增加,可在一定程度上减少有机废弃物在土壤循环处理时磷对环境的负影响。在农田施用有机废弃物时,不仅要考虑有机废弃物磷素状况,也应适当考虑其他矿质成分的组成特点。该研究可为城郊农地科学施用有机废弃物提供依据。     

Combination effects of heavy metals and fluoranthene on soil bacteria

The effects of (1) Cd, Cu, Zn, and fluoranthene (FLA), separately applied, and (2) combinations of one of these heavy metals with FLA on the growth of bacteria were studied in agar plate experiments. The bacteria were extracted from A horizons of a Eutric Regosol and a Calcic Chernozem. Significant reductions of bacterial counts were observed for both soils at concentrations > 1.0 mg Cd l^–1, 0.5 mg Cu l^–1, and 0.5 mg Zn l^–1, respectively. Additions of FLA up to 100 mg l^–1 did not result in increasing reductions of bacterial growth in the Regosol. Only 0.5, 2, and 100 mg FLA l^–1 caused significant reductions of 22–27%. Bacterial counts were not affected by 0.2 mg FLA l^–1. Low concentrations of heavy metals which were not affective when added separately were found to reduce bacterial growth when applied in combination with 0.2 mg FLA l^–1. At higher levels of heavy metals up to 2.5 mg l^–1, addition of FLA also increased the toxicity of the metals. It is assumed that the enhancement of toxicity by FLA is due to an alteration of the permeability of bacterial cell membranes. Received: 19 July 1996     

尾矿池里添加大理石废料和有机物五年后植被覆盖和土壤生化特性研究

Tailing ponds pose environmental hazards,such as toxic metals which can contaminate the surroundings through wind and water erosions and leaching.Various chemical and biochemical properties,together with extractable and soluble metals were measured five years after reclamation of a polluted soil affected by former mining activities.This abandoned mine site contains large amounts of Fe-oxyhydroxides,sulphates,and heavy metals.As a consequence,soils remain bare and the soil organic matter content is low(< 3 g kg 1).Marble waste,pig manure and sewage sludge were applied in 2004.Plant cover and richness,and soil chemical,biochemical and biological parameters were analysed five years later.Results showed that all soil biochemical properties as well as vegetation cover and richness were higher in treated soils than in the untreated contaminated plots(control),although organic matter,pH values and extractable metals concentrations were similar among treatments.Soluble cadmium and zinc were lower in the amended plots than in control.As a general pattern,soil amended with pig manure showed higher values of most biochemical properties compared to sewage sludge application,while the doses did not have a great effect,being only significant for β-glucosidase,phosphodiesterase and arylsulfatase.Significant correlations were found between vegetation cover,richness and soil biochemical properties,suggesting a high interdependence between plant colonization and reactivation of biogeochemical cycles during five years.This study confirms the high effectiveness of an initial application of the amendments tested to initialize the recovery of ecosystems in bare mine soils under Mediterranean semiarid conditions.This research also shows the high sensitivity of certain biochemical properties in order to evaluate soil quality and reactivation of nutrients cycles in reclaimed mine soils.     

有机肥施用年限对土壤有机碳组分及其来源与玉米产量的影响

松嫩平原西部土壤盐渍化现象普遍,严重制约着农业的发展。施用有机肥能够提高土壤有机碳的含量,这是改良盐碱土的核心。该研究依托盐碱土改良长期定位试验,依据施用有机肥的年限,共设置4个处理,分别为:施用有机肥5a、9a和16a的处理,以未施肥的盐碱土壤作为对照处理。试验通过对土壤δ13C值、土壤有机碳组分、玉米产量、土壤pH和电导率等多项指标的测定,量化玉米源及有机肥源有机碳对土壤总有机碳的贡献,明确各有机碳组分的分配比例,探讨长期施用有机肥对盐碱土壤有机碳来源、组分、玉米产量及盐碱程度的影响。结果表明:长期施用有机肥与种植玉米的方式显著增加盐碱土壤的δ13CSOC值(P0.01),且δ13CSOC值随培肥年限的增加而增加;同时以植物及土壤的δ13CSOC值为基础,借助二元方程计算得出盐碱土壤有机培肥9a后土壤有机碳中来源于玉米残茬的比例为14.36%,来源于有机肥的比例为25.92%,盐碱土壤原有有机碳所占的比例为59.72%;长期施用有机肥显著增加玉米产量,降低土壤pH和电导率,并且随有机肥施用年限的增加玉米产量提高,土壤pH和电导率呈下降趋势;长期施用有机肥显著增加有机碳各组分的碳密度,0～40 cm土层的活性I、活性II和惰性有机碳的密度,随有机肥施用年限的增加均呈现出递增的变化趋势;土壤有机碳总量的增加来自于各组分含量的增加,0～40 cm土层有机碳含量的增加主要源于惰性和活性II有机碳,其次是活性I有机碳。综上所述,有机培肥是土壤有机碳及玉米产量提升的双赢措施,且有机肥源有机碳对有机碳的贡献大于玉米源碳的输入。长期有机培肥可以丰富植物的直接碳源,亦可促进碳素的长期固存,增强盐碱土的碳汇功能。     

稻田土壤和稻米中重金属潜在污染风险评估与来源解析

该文选择贵州省典型城市(都匀市)周边水稻种植区为研究区,系统采集了稻田土壤和稻米样品各110个,测定土壤和稻米中Cd、Hg、As、Pb和Cr含量,基于多元统计分析和污染风险评价等分析方法,揭示了研究区稻田土壤重金属污染的主要来源及土壤和稻米中重金属存在的潜在风险。结果表明,与贵州土壤重金属背景值相比,稻田土壤中Cd、Hg、As、Pb和Cr超标率分别为14.55%、40.00%、16.36%、22.72%和13.64%,主要以Hg污染问题最为突出。稻米中只存在3.64%Cd超标,Hg、As、Pb和Cr平均含量均低于国家食品安全标准限定值(GB 2762-2017),说明当地居民食用稻米存在最大的潜在威胁为Cd污染稻米。稻田土壤重金属来源分析结果表明,稻田土壤中Cd、Hg、As和Pb之间呈显著正相关关系,说明土壤中Cd、Hg、As和Pb具有相同的来源,主要来源于当地铅锌矿冶炼、火电厂等污染点源排放的污染物;Cr与其他元素相关性不显著,主要来源于成土母质,为自然来源元素。     

生物质炭与氮肥配施降低水稻重金属含量的盆栽试验

针对重金属污染严重的土壤,探索施用氮肥和生物质炭减少水稻重金属吸收的可行性。该研究采用盆栽试验,选用生物质炭、硫硝铵氮肥(简称普通氮肥)和含硝化抑制剂3,4-二甲基吡唑磷酸盐的硫硝铵氮肥(简称3,4-dimethylpyrazolephosphate,DMPP氮肥),设置了5种处理包括对照即未添加氮肥和生物质炭、普通氮肥添加、DMPP氮肥添加、生物质炭+普通氮肥添加和生物质炭+DMPP氮肥添加,研究了不同处理对水稻华航丝苗(Oryza sativa L.)生长和重金属Cu、Zn和Cd吸收特性的影响。结果表明,不配施生物质炭时,DMPP氮肥对水稻籽粒产量无显著(P0.05)影响;生物质炭与普通氮肥或DMPP氮肥配施均能增加水稻籽粒产量:与单施普通氮肥相比,生物质炭与普通氮肥配施水稻籽粒产量显著(P0.05)增加20.3%;与单施DMPP氮肥相比,生物质炭与DMPP氮肥配施水稻籽粒产量显著(P0.05)增加49.3%。与不施肥对照相比,生物质炭与DMPP氮肥配施能降低籽粒Cu、Zn和Cd含量,其籽粒Cu、Zn和Cd质量分数分别显著降低20.0%、21.4%和11.6%。未配施生物质炭时DMPP促进Cu从秸秆向籽粒的转移,配施生物质炭时DMPP促进Cu和Cd从根向秸秆的转移;生物质炭与不同氮肥配施对水稻籽粒/秸秆和秸秆/根Cu、Zn和Cd转运系数的影响因配施氮肥品种不同而存在差异。综上,生物质炭与DMPP氮肥配施可降低籽粒中重金属Cu、Zn和Cd质量分数,促进水稻生长,增加水稻籽粒产量,适宜在多重金属污染稻田施用。     

Soil amendment with city sewage sludge increases soil extractable cadmium,nickel and zinc more than tannery,pharmaceutical and paper mill wastes

Abstract

The distribution of DTPA-extractable Cd, Ni and Zn in four profile samples collected from areas contaminated with wastes from tannery, city sewage, pharmaceutical and paper mills located at different places in Bangladesh was investigated. Soil samples were analysed for the total and their DTPA-extractable metal contents. The total concentration of metals in the soil horizons ranged from 0.07 to 0.62 mg kg^?1 for Cd, 31 to 54 mg kg^?1 for Ni and 59 to 838 mg kg^?1 for Zn, respectively. These metal concentrations were highest in the surface and lowest in the subsurface horizons. This trend was also observed for the DTPA-extractable amounts of these metals. The relative extractability, expressed as the ratio of DTPA to total contents (aqua regia-extractable) was 33 to 46% for Cd, 2 to 10% for Ni and 3 to 28% for Zn, respectively, in the A1 horizon, while in the B and C horizons the ratios decreased gradually as did total concentration, indicating that metal contamination was primarily limited to the surface horizon. For all three metals, the above mentioned ratio was highest in the city sewage soil and the lowest in the paper mill soil. In general, the extent of contamination among the profiles investigated was in the following order: city sewage>tannery>pharmaceutical>paper mill soil. Higher ratios of DTPA-extractable Cd, Ni and Zn in the city sewage soil than the other soils may create a risk for the contamination of agricultural products and ground water.     

有机物料对农田土壤肥力及镉有效性的影响

明确有机物料对土壤肥力及Cd有效性的影响,对南方中轻度Cd污染农田的安全利用具有重要意义。本研究以我国南方两种不同程度Cd污染农田土壤为研究对象,通过不同有机物料（猪粪、商品有机肥、水稻秸秆和生物炭）施肥处理来探究土壤肥力水平及Cd有效性的变化,并对施用有机物料情况下土壤Cd有效性与土壤养分进行了关联分析。结果表明,施用有机物料显著提高了土壤氮磷钾含量及其有效性,商品有机肥提高了土壤全N含量,施用猪粪处理土壤的全P和有效P含量显著升高,商品有机肥和生物炭明显提高了土壤全K和速效K含量。水稻秸秆和生物炭处理轻污染土壤SOM均达土壤肥力1级（> 40 g/kg）。与CK相比,施加有机物料对轻污染土壤有效态Cd含量的影响不大,但中污染土壤有效态Cd含量显著下降,最高降幅达20.00%。土壤有效态Cd含量与全N、全P和全K和有效P均成显著负相关关系。轻污染土壤施加猪粪和生物炭处理上海青地上部Cd含量均低于0.20 mg/kg。施加商品有机肥处理两种土壤肥力综合指数（SNI）最高,是其他处理的1.50~3.18倍,但其上海青地上部Cd含量存在较高风险。因此,针对南方Cd污染农田土壤的培肥及安全利用可考虑施用猪粪。     

Influence of heavy metals on the functional diversity of soil microbial communities

Three soil types-Calcaric Phaeozem, Eutric Cambisol and Dystric Lithosol-in large container pots were experimentally contaminated with heavy metals at four different levels (light pollution: 300 ppm Zn, 100 ppm Cu, 50 ppm Ni, 50 ppm V and 3 ppm Cd; medium pollution: twofold concentrations; heavy pollution: threefold concentrations; uncontaminated control). We investigated the prognostic potential of 16 soil microbial properties (microbial biomass, respiration, N-mineralization, 13 soil enzymes involved in cycling of C, N, P and S) with regard to their ability to differentiate the four contamination levels. Microbial biomass and enzyme activities decreased with increasing heavy metal pollution, but the amount of decrease differed among the enzymes. Enzymes involved in the C-cycling were least affected, whereas vartous enzyme activities related to the cycling of N, P and S showed a considerable decrease in activity. In particular, arylsulfatase and phosphatase activities were dramatically affected. Their activity decreased to a level of a few percent of their activities in the corresponding unpolluted controls. The data suggest that aside from the loss of rare biochemical capabilities-such as the growth of organisms at the expense of aromatics (Reber 1992)-heavy metal contaminated soils lose very common biochemical propertities which are necessary for the functioning of the ecosystem. Cluster analysis as well as discriminant analysis underline the similarity of the enzyme activity pattern among the controls and among the polluted soils. The trend toward a significant functional diversity loss becomes obvious already at the lowest pollution level. This implies that concentrations of heavy metals in soils near the current EC limits will most probably lead to a considerable reduction in decomposition and nutrient cycling rates. We conclude that heavy metal pollution severely decreases the functional diversity of the soil microbial community and impairs specific pathways of nutrient cycling.Dedicated to Professor J. C. G.

污灌区土壤重金属空间结构与分布特征

该文探讨了地统计学插值模型应用于土壤重金属污染评价的适用条件,分析了北野场污灌区土壤重金属的正态分布特征和主导分布趋势,提出了不同重金属因子适宜的地统计插值模型。结果表明:土壤重金属空间变异系数处于12%～37%之间,整体变异性不大;Pb、Cd等因子的块金效应分别为0.90、0.87,空间相关性较弱,受人为随机因素的影响较大,As、Cr、Zn、Cu值等因子的块金效应分别为0.52、0.51、0.51和0.46,空间相关性中等,受人为随机因素和空间结构因素的共同作用,Hg和Ni的块金效应分别为0.253和0.06,空间相关性较强,受空间结构性因素的影响较大,可能受原生地质的影响较大。污灌区重金属含量存在增加趋势,灌区土壤重金属含量自北向南总体呈现较少趋势,这与灌区上下游灌溉保证率不同有关,表明长期污水灌溉可导致土壤重金属富集,但与全国其他污灌区相比,北野场污灌区土壤重金属污染相对较轻,应加强污水处理利用避免土壤重金属污染。     

复合污染土壤中土霉素的吸附行为及其对土壤重金属解吸影响的研究

参考经济合作与发展组织(OECD)化学品试验导则No.106,采用批量平衡试验的方法,探讨了土霉素(Oxytetracycline,OTC)在3种土壤中的吸附解吸特性,并考察了土霉素外加量对土壤中4种代表性重金属元素(铜、锌、铅、镉)解吸量的影响。试验设置的土霉素初始浓度为0.01、0.1、1.0、5.0、10.0、25.0、50.0、100、200和400 mg L-1。结果表明:(1)存在一个土霉素特征浓度,高于或低于该浓度值时土霉素的吸附性质有所差异,且高低两个浓度范围内的数据均能用Freundlich模型与Langmuir模型较好地拟合;(2)当土霉素浓度在0~25 mg L-1之间时,能在土壤表面与重金属发生竞争吸附,且重金属解吸量随土霉素浓度的增加而增加;当土霉素浓度在25~100 mg L-1之间时,部分游离态重金属以与土霉素的络合物形式重新固定于土壤表面,土壤重金属的解吸量随土霉素浓度增加而减少;土霉素浓度高于100 mg L-1时,体系p H相对于对照有明显下降,土壤重金属的解吸量与土霉素浓度又呈正相关。
