纳米羟基磷灰石修复镉锌复合污染紫色土效果初探

选取安宁河谷平原矿区周边受Cd和Zn复合污染紫色土为研究对象,采用老化试验,探索添加羟基磷灰石对土壤中重金属生物有效性以及形态分布的影响,羟基磷灰石添加比例(w/w)设置为0%(CK)、1%(P1)、3%(P3)和5%(P5)。结果表明:①添加羟基磷灰石能够显著提高土壤p H值,P1、P3和P5的p H值分别比CK升高了0. 13、0. 18、0. 21个p H单位;②添加羟基磷灰石能够显著降低土壤有效态Cd和Zn (0. 025 M HCl提取),相较于CK,P1、P3和P5的有效态Cd含量可分别降低36. 0%、78. 8%、90. 2%,有效态Zn含量可分别降低25. 4%、67. 4%、84. 5%;③添加羟基磷灰石能够明显降低土壤中活性较高的可交换态和碳酸盐结合态Cd和Zn的比例(P 0. 05),明显升高了活性较低的铁锰结合态、有机结合态以及残渣态Cd和Zn的比例(P 0. 05),从而促进Cd和Zn向非活性态转化。本研究证明了羟基磷灰石在安宁河谷平原土壤重金属污染修复中有较大的应用潜力。

SO_2污染对莴苣指管蚜(Uroleucon formosanum Takahashi——莴苣植物(Lactuca sativa L)相互关系的影响

在实验室条件下(27±2℃,REH65±3%),受0.15μg/l和0.50μg/lS-O_2作用的蚜虫死亡率在32小时内与对照组无差异。用0.15,0.50μg/lSO_2薰7天后的莴苣苗饲喂,在为期15天的实验中,0.50μg/1组产仔总数(88.5±5.562)大于对照组(73.3±6.019)和0.15μg/l组(71.5±6.650)。内禀增长率率(?)m0.50>(?)m0.15>(?)m对照。体长在各浓度间无明显差异。实验表明:SO_2对蚜虫种群变动的影响主要是通过寄主植株的生理变化而生产的。     

新疆土壤可蚀性K值空间插值及其分布特征研究

土壤可蚀性是土壤侵蚀预报和土地利用规划的重要参数,本文采用EPIC（Erosion Productivity Impact Caculator）模型中土壤可蚀性因子K值为指标,利用新疆土壤污染状况调查资料,探讨新疆土壤可蚀性K值及分布特征,并采用Kriging插值法进行全疆K值的空间插值。结果表明：新疆各类型土壤表层平均K值为0.238～0.441,主要分布在可侵蚀-易侵蚀-较易侵蚀范围;其中K值最大的土类为石质土和风沙土,均属于岩成土土纲;K值最小的土类为棕钙土;不同的土地利用方式,土壤可蚀性特征也不同,耕地土壤K值最大。从总体上看,土壤经过多年耕种,抗侵蚀能力明显下降。     

云阳县合理开发荒山资源发展经济林木

云阳县幅员面积3648.9km~2,人口116.4万人,农耕地120.19万亩,占总土地面积的21.96%;荒山草坡221.32万亩,占40.44%,人均荒山约2万亩。其荒山资源特点为;①山高坡陡,土层瘠薄;②地貌复杂,立体气候明显;③紫色土分布广,土壤类型多;④森林被破坏,水土流失严重。因此云阳县决定开发荒山资源,走发展经济林木的道路。首先,500m 以下的丘陵区多系紫色土,温、光、水等条件较好,以发展柑桔、桑树、枇杷为主,结合发展李、杏、梨、桃、乌柏;干热河谷地区土层瘠薄,无农垦价值,宜大力发展蓑草。其次,500～1000m 地区以发展油桐、杜仲为宜;须家河组地层的酸性土应发展茶叶、油茶、猕猴桃、山胡椒、柿树等;阳坡沟谷两旁潮湿     

浙北平原土壤有效磷的农学-环境综合分级研究

通过调查试验,拟订了浙北土壤有效磷的农学-环境综合分级指标体系。按照不施磷对照处理产量占施磷肥处理产量的相对比例大小和土壤磷素发生明显流失时的土壤磷状况,把土壤有效磷由低至高分为低、较低、中、较高、高和环境危险等6级。其中,水稻生产的土壤有效磷分级标准依次为〈6、6～10、10～15、15～20、20～50和〉50mg·kg-1;蔬菜生产的土壤有效磷分级标准依次为〈10、10～20、20～28、28～40、40～50和〉50mg·kg^-1。提出了不同磷素状况的土壤管理看法：对当土壤有效磷超过15mg·kg^-1的水稻田或有效磷超过28mg·kg^-1的蔬菜地可实施＂减量、隔年施磷＂的施肥方法;当水稻田土壤有效磷超过20mg·kg^-1或蔬菜地土壤有效磷超过40mg·kg^-1时,应实施动态优化施磷方法,即减少磷肥施用量,保持施磷量相当或略高于作物吸磷量即可。在施用有机肥或长期施用一定量化学磷肥的条件下,可以不施用磷肥或少施用磷肥,充分发挥磷肥的后效特性。     

南充农村土壤中有机氯农药残留现状分析

本研究以四川省南充市某农村土壤为研究对象,于2010年和2011年连续两年对土壤中有机氯农药(HCH,DDT)残留情况进行了定点监测。研究结果表明,试区土壤HCHs在2011年基本未检出。两年的DDTs的检出率均为100%。OCPs主要残留物为p,p’-DDE,占残留总量75%以上。不同利用类型土壤中有机氯残留总量排序为:菜地>重点污染场地>基本农田>居民聚集区。所有土壤样品中的HCHs含量均达到国家《土壤环境质量标准》(GB15618-1995)一级标准(<0.05mg/kg),DDTs含量均达到二级标准(<0.50mg/kg)。残留污染较轻。     

黑水河干旱河谷沿程土壤物理参数梯度变化特征研究

横断山区干旱河谷是具有典型的旱季和雨季的特殊气候特征的区域，本区域土壤退化和荒漠化极大制约了区域农业的发展。本文研究了金沙江干热河谷区支流黑水河从源头到河口未扰动土壤的物理参数变化特征。结果表明，沿河土壤物理呈现不同变化趋势，砾石在中游部分河段和河口段高，而〉5mm团聚体的变化则相反；5～1mm的团聚体变化不大；〈1mm团聚体河口和源头段高于其余地段；土壤容重沿程增大，非饱和导水率源头地段土壤最高。本研究初步揭示了干旱河谷土壤不均匀，不同水热条件及其组合可能对退化程度有至关重要的影响。这表明横断山区不同的干旱河谷地段土壤和植被退化途径、退化特征和退化过程不同，开发和治理途径与方式也应当不同。     

Phenanthrene degradation in soils co-inoculated with phenanthrene-degrading and biosurfactant-producing bacteria

Contaminant sorption within the soil matrix frequently limits biodegradation. However, contaminant bioavailability can be species-specific. This study investigated bioavailability of phenanthrene (PHE) to two PHE-degrading bacteria (Pseudomonas strain R and isolate P5-2) in the presence of rhamnolipid biosurfactant and/or a biosurfactant-producing bacterium, Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 9027. Pseudomonas strain R mineralized more soil-sorbed PHE than strain P5-2, but in aqueous cultures the rate and extent of PHE mineralization by P5-2 exceeded that by P. strain R. In Fallsington sandy loam (fine-loamy, mixed, active, mesic Typic Endoaquult) (high PHE-sorption capacity) the addition of rhamnolipid increased PHE mineralization by P. strain R. Phenanthrene mineralization in soils inoculated with P5-2 was minimal and no enhancement in PHE degradation was observed when biosurfactant was added. Co-inoculation of Fallsington sandy loam with the biosurfactant producer did not affect PHE mineralization by isolate P5-2, but significantly enhanced PHE mineralization by P. strain R. The enhancement of PHE mineralization could not be explained by P. aeruginosa-mediated PHE degradation. The addition of rhamnolipid at concentrations above the critical micelle concentration (CMC) resulted in enhanced PHE release from test soils. These results suggest that the PHE-degrading strains were able to access different pools of PHE and that the biosurfactant-enhanced release of PHE from soils did not result in enhanced biodegradation. The results also demonstrated that bacteria with the catabolic potential to degrade sorbed hydrophobic contaminants could interact commensally with surfactant-producing strains by an unknown mechanism to hasten the biodegradation of aromatic hydrocarbons. Thus, understanding interactions among microbes may provide opportunities to further enhance biodegradation of soil-bound organic contaminants.     

Biotic and abiotic degradation of CL-20 and RDX in soils

The caged cyclic nitramine 2,4,6,8,10,12-hexanitro-2,4,6,8,10,12-hexaazaisowurtzitane (CL-20) is a new explosive that has the potential to replace existing military explosives, but little is known about its environmental toxicity, transport, and fate. We quantified and compared the aerobic environmental fate of CL-20 to the widely used cyclic nitramine explosive hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine (RDX) in surface and subsurface soil microcosms. Soil-free controls and biologically attenuated soil controls were used to separate abiotic processes from biologically mediated processes. Both abiotic and biological processes significantly degraded CL-20 in all soils examined. Apparent abiotic, first-order degradation rates (k) for CL-20 were not significantly different between soil-free controls (0.018 < k < 0.030 d(-1)) and biologically attenuated soil controls (0.003 < k < 0.277 d(-1)). The addition of glucose to biologically active soil microcosms significantly increased CL-20 degradation rates (0.068 < k < 1.22 d(-1)). Extents of mineralization of (14)C-CL-20 to (14)CO(2) in biologically active soil microcosms were 41.1 to 55.7%, indicating that the CL-20 cage was broken, since all carbons are part of the heterocyclic cage. Under aerobic conditions, abiotic degradation rates of RDX were generally slower (0 < k < 0.032 d(-1)) than abiotic CL-20 degradation rates. In biologically active soil microcosms amended with glucose aerobic RDX degradation rates varied between 0.010 and 0.474 d(-1). Biodegradation was a key factor in determining the environmental fate of RDX, while a combination of biotic and abiotic processes was important with CL-20. Our data suggest that CL-20 should be less recalcitrant than RDX in aerobic soils.     

Sorption and degradation characteristics of phosmet in two contrasting Australian soils

The organophosphate insecticide phosmet [phosphorodithioic acid, s-((1,3-dihydro-1,3-dioxo-2H-isoindol-2yl)methyl), o,o-dimethyl ester] is used to control red-legged earth mites (Halotydeus destructor), lucerne flea (Sminthurus viridis), and Oriental fruit moth (Cydia molesta) in horticulture and vegetable growing. This study was undertaken with two soils of contrasting properties to determine the extent to which sorption and degradation of the insecticide might influence its potential to leach from soil into receiving waters. Two soils were used: a highly organic, oxidic clay soil (Ferrosol) and a sandy soil low in organic matter (Podosol), sampled to 0.3 m depth. The extent of sorption and decomposition rate of a phosmet commercial formulation were measured in laboratory experiments. Sorption followed a Freundlich isotherm at all depths. The Freundlich coefficient K was significantly correlated (p = 0.005) with organic C content in the Podosol, and significantly correlated (p = 0.005) with organic C and clay content in the Ferrosol. K was highest (48.8 L kg-1) in the 0- to 0.05-m depth of the Ferrosol, but lowest (1.0 L kg-1) at this depth in the Podosol. Degradation followed first-order kinetics, with the phosmet half-life ranging from 14 h (0-0.05 m depth) to 187 h (0.2-0.3 m depth) in the Ferrosol. The half-life was much longer in the sandy Podosol, ranging from 462 to 866 h, and did not change significantly with depth. Soil organic C and to a lesser degree clay content influenced phosmet sorption and degradation, but the interaction was complex and possibly affected by co-solvents present in the commercial formulation.     

Competitive degradation between the fumigants chloropicrin and 1,3-dichloropropene in unamended and amended soils

The mixture of 1,3-dichloropropene (1,3-D) and chloropicrin (CP) is used as a preplant soil fumigant. In comparison with individual fumigants, application of a mixture may affect the environmental dissipation and fate of each chemical, such as emission and degradation. We investigated the degradation of CP, 1,3-D, and their mixture in fresh soils and sterile soils, and evaluated the competitive characteristic of fumigants in the mixture. The degradation of low concentrations of CP in fresh soil was accelerated at early times in the presence of 1,3-D, whereas the addition of CP reduced the degradation rate of trans-1,3-D, possibly by inhibiting the activity of trans-1,3-D degrading microorganisms. The potential of applying amendments to the soil to increase the rate of CP and 1,3-D degradation was also illustrated. The degradation of both fumigants was significantly enhanced in soils amended with ammonium thiosulfate (ATS) and sodium diethyldithiocarbamate (Na-DEDTC) compared with unamended soil. Competitive degradation was observed for CP in amended soils in the presence of 1,3-D. The degradation of cis-1,3-D in amended soils spiked as a mixture of 1,3-D and CP was repressed compared with the rate of degradation in samples spiked with 1,3-D only. This implied that in abiotic degradation, CP and cis-1,3-D competed for a limited number of reaction sites in amended soil, resulting in decreased degradation rates. No significant influence of fumigant mixtures was observed for trans-1,3-D in amended soil.     

Effect of corn root exudates on the degradation of atrazine and its chlorinated metabolites in soils

DIMBOA (3,4-dihydro-2,4-dihydroxy-7-methoxy-2H-1,4-benzoxazin-3-one), a major benzoxazinone of Poaceae plants, was isolated and purified from corn seedlings. The effect of isolated and purified DIMBOA on the degradation of atrazine [2-chloro-4-(ethylamino)-6-(isopropylamino)-s-triazine], and its toxic breakdown products, desethylatrazine [2-chloro-4-amino-6-(isopropylamino)-s-triazine; DEA] and desisopropylatrazine [2-chloro-4-(ethylamino)-6-amino-s-triazine; DIA], was studied in the absence of plants using batch experiments, while the effect of corn root exudates on these compounds was determined in hydroponic experiments. Degradation experiments were performed in the presence and absence of 50 microM, 1 mM, or 5 mM DIMBOA resulting in ratios of DIMBOA to pesticide of 1:1, 20:1, and 100:1. We observed a 100% degradation of atrazine to hydroxyatrazine within 48 h at a ratio of DIMBOA to atrazine of 100:1. DIMBOA had the largest effect on atrazine, while it was about three times less effective on DEA and DIA. Corn (Zea mays L. cv. LG 2185) was exposed to 10 mg L(-1) of either atrazine, DEA, or DIA for 11 d in a growth chamber experiment. Up to 4.3 micromol L(-1) d(-1) of hydroxyatrazine were formed in the nutrient solutions by plants exposed to atrazine, while the formation of hydroxylated metabolites from plants exposed to DEA and DIA was smaller and also delayed. The formation of hydroxylated metabolites increased in the solution with plant age in all atrazine, DEA, and DIA treatments. HMBOA (3,4-dihydro-2-hydroxy-7-methoxy-2H-1,4-benzoxazin-3-one), the lactam precursor of DIMBOA, and a tentatively identified derivative of MBOA (2,3-dihydro-6-methoxy-benzoxazol-2-one) were detected in the corn root exudates. Mass balance calculations revealed that up to 30% of the disappearance of atrazine and DEA, and up to 10% of DIA removal from the solution medium in our study could be explained by the formation of hydroxylated metabolites in the solution itself. Our results show that higher plants such as corn have the potential to promote the hydrolysis of triazine residues in soils by exudation of benzoxazinones.     

Atrazine degradation and residues distribution in two acid soils from temperate humid zone

Mineralization of atrazine and formation of extractable and non-extractable "bound" residues were followed under laboratory conditions in two contrasting soils (organic C, texture, and atrazine application history) from northern Spain. The soils, a Humic Cambisol (MP) and a Gleyic Cambisol (G) were incubated with labeled atrazine (ring-13C atrazine) at field application dose and measurements were made at different time intervals during 3 mo. Fate and behavior of atrazine along the incubation showed different patterns between the two soils, the time taken for degradation of 50% (DT50) being 9 and 44 d for MP and G soils, respectively. In MP soil, with 40 yr of atrazine application and lower organic C and clay content, more than 89% of U-13C-atrazine added was mineralized after 12 wk, with most mineralization occurring within the first 2 wk. G soil, with 10 yr of atrazine application, exhibited a more progressive U-13C-atrazine mineralization, reaching 54% of initially added atrazine at 12 wk. Hydroxyatrazine and deisopropylatrazine were the metabolites founded in the extractable fraction, demonstrating that both chemical and biological processes are involved in atrazine degradation. Soil G showed during all the incubation times an extractable residues fraction greater than that in MP soil, indicating a high potential risk of soil and water contamination. Rapid microbial degradation through s-triazine ring cleavage was proposed to be the main decomposition pathway of atrazine for the two soils studied. Bound residues pool also differed notably between soils accounting for 9 and 41% of initially added atrazine, the higher values shown by soil with higher organic matter and clay content (G soil).     

Occurrence of antimicrobials in animal manure-amended soils around the breeding farms: The case of the Saigon River (southern Vietnam)

The excessive use of antimicrobials in animal rearing and the associated environmental hazards have become a pressing issue. Animal agriculture is often viewed as a significant contributor to environmental degradation due to the residues of antimicrobials. It is a common practice to use livestock waste as a soil enhancer in farming. Despite some research into antimicrobials, there is room for more comprehensive data regarding these pollutants in animal farming environments. A handful of earlier studies have identified antimicrobials in animal waste. This research undertook the task of examining and evaluating soils amended with animal waste (from chickens, cows, and pigs) for the presence of seven specific antimicrobials. The antimicrobials under scrutiny included trimethoprim (TRI), ormethoprim (ORM), ofloxacin (OFL), norfloxacin (NOR), tetracycline (TET), chlortetracycline (CTE), and tylosin (TLS). Soil samples were collected from areas surrounding breeding farms located upstream of the Sai Gon River. These samples were then subjected to laboratory analysis, which involved solid-phase extraction using ultrasonic waves and the application of high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LCMS/MS) to identify the antimicrobials. TRI, which had the highest average concentration (2.603–91.304 μg/kg), and OFL, with the second highest average concentration (1.815–15.832 μg/kg), were detected in all soil samples amended with manure. CTE, with the third highest average concentration, was found in soils amended with cow and pig waste (1.625–15.486 μg/kg). ORM and TE, with lower average concentrations (0.595–1.318 μ and 11.537–13.569 μg/kg, respectively), were only detected in soils amended with chicken waste, while NOR was only found in soils amended with cow waste. These findings indicate that the use of antimicrobials in animal farming can negatively impact the soil ecosystem. Consequently, these results can contribute to the creation of guidelines for monitoring antimicrobial residues in agricultural ecosystems.     

Laboratory degradation studies of bentazone, dichlorprop, MCPA, and propiconazole in Norwegian soils

Laboratory degradation studies were performed in Norwegian soils using two commercial formulations (Tilt and Triagran-P) containing either propiconazole alone or a combination of bentazone, dichlorprop, and MCPA. These soils included a fine sandy loam from Hole and a loam from Kroer, both of which are representative of Norwegian agricultural soils. The third soil was a highly decomposed organic material from the Froland forest. A fourth soil from the Skuterud watershed was used only for propiconazole degradation. After 84 d, less than 0.1% of the initial MCPA concentration remained in all three selected soils. For dichlorprop, the same results were found for the fine sandy loam and the organic-rich soil, but in the loam, 26% of the initial concentration remained. After 84 d, less than 0.1% of the initial concentration of bentazone remained in the organic-rich soil, but in the loam and the fine sandy loam 52 and 69% remained, respectively. Propiconazole was shown to be different from the other pesticides by its persistence. Amounts of initial concentration remaining varied from 40, 70, and 82% in the reference soils after 84 d for the organic-rich soil, fine sandy loam, and loam, respectively. The organic-rich soil showed the highest capacity to decompose all four pesticides. The results from the agricultural soils and the Skuterud watershed showed that the persistence of propiconazole was high. Pesticide degradation was approximated to first-order kinetics. Slow rates of degradation, where more than 50% of the pesticide remained in the soil after the 84-d duration of the experiment, did not fit well with first-order kinetics.     

Assessment of tropical suburban surface soils contamination from Jengka,Malaysia

Heavy metals in suburban soils pose both indirect and direct health risks. This study assessed the concentrations of Cr, Zn, Pb, and Cd in Jengka (Malaysia) suburban soil and estimated the human health risk. Health risk assessment (HRA) was utilized to assess non-cancer and cancer risks. The concentrations of heavy metals increased in the following order: Cd < Zn < Cr < Pb. The heavy metals were found to be divided into two components using principal component analysis (PCA), with PC1 comprising Pb and Cd and PC2 containing Zn and Cr. PC1 originates from anthropogenic sources, while PC2 is often from mixed anthropogenic and natural sources. Despite having the lowest mean concentration, Cd was enriched based on the geo-accumulation index (Igeo) and enrichment factor (EF). Average hazard index values were below the acceptable threshold (HI < 1) for dermal and inhalation pathways suggesting a low non-cancer risk. Jengka suburban soil had total lifetime cancer risk values slightly higher than the acceptable threshold (1 × 10⁻⁵). Skin contact was the most prominent contributing exposure pathway for both non-carcinogenic and carcinogenic risks. This study suggests that heavy metal bioactivity levels be used to make a plausible HRA of heavy metal pollution in suburban soils.
