Removal of metals by sorghum plants from contaminated land

The growth of high biomass crops facilitated by optimal of agronomic practices has been considered as an alternative to phytoremediation of soils contaminated by heavy metals. A field trial was carried out to evaluate the phytoextraction efficiency of heavy metals by three varieties of sweet sorghum (Sorghum biocolor L.), a high biomass energy plant. Ethylene diamine tetraacetate (EDTA), ammonium nitrate (NH₄NO₃) and ammonium sulphate ((NH₄)₂SO₄) were tested for their abilities to enhance the removal of heavy metals Pb, Cd, Zn, and Cu by sweet sorghum from a contaminated agricultural soil. Sorghum plants always achieved the greatest removal of Pb by leaves and the greatest removal of Cd, Zn and Cu by stems. There was no significant difference among the Keller, Rio and Mray varieties of sweet sorghums in accumulating heavy metals. EDTA treatment was more efficient than ammonium nitrate and ammonium sulphate in promoting Pb accumulation in sweet sorghum from the contaminated agricultural soil. The application of ammonium nitrate and ammonium sulphate increased the accumulation of both Zn and Cd in roots of sorghum plants. Results from this study suggest that cropping of sorghum plants facilitated by agronomic practices may be a sustainable technique for partial decontamination of heavy metal contaminated soils.     

两株耐铅镉真菌对土壤中铅镉赋存形态及小白菜吸收积累的影响

通过土培试验,研究接种耐铅镉真菌(产黄头孢霉Cephalosporium chrysogenum和头孢霉Cephalosporium SP.)对灭菌和未灭菌铅镉污染土壤上小白菜生长及铅镉赋存形态的影响.试验结果表明:接种两种耐重金属真菌可以降低或显著降低土壤中交换态铅镉、碳酸盐结合态铅镉和铁锰结合态铅镉,且显著增加土壤中有机结合态铅镉,因此降低了土壤中铅镉的活性;在灭菌和未灭菌铅镉污染土壤上接种两种真菌均能增加或显著增加小白菜的株高和鲜重,其中在未灭土壤中接种产黄头孢霉20 mL小白菜鲜重和株高最大,分别达到6.00 cm和3.22 g·株~(-1),在灭菌土壤上接种产黄头胞霉10 m L小白菜株高和鲜重最大,分别为10.66 cm和11.07 g·株~(-1);接种两种真菌可以显著降低未灭菌土壤上小白菜体内铅镉含量和累积量,在灭菌土壤上接种10 mL产黄头孢霉可以显著降低小白菜铅含量和累积量.     

农地土壤重金属Pb和Cd有效性测定方法的筛选与评价

作物重金属累积主要受土壤中重金属有效性的制约,由于土壤种类和污染特征的差异,目前尚无公认的有效态测定方法.为筛选建立适宜土壤铅（Pb）和镉（Cd）有效性评价的方法,本文选择重庆市4种性质差异较大的典型农地土壤：酸性紫色土、中性紫色土、石灰性黄壤和钙质紫色土,系统比较了氯化钙（CaCl₂）、醋酸铵（NH₄OAc）、盐酸（HCl）、乙二胺四乙酸二钠盐（EDTA）和二乙基三胺五乙酸（DTPA）这5种化学提取方法与梯度扩散薄膜技术（DGT）对供试土壤Pb和Cd的提取能力,并以黑麦草为指示植物开展盆栽试验,探讨不同提取剂提取量与植物Pb和Cd累积能力的相关性,进而综合评价不同方法的适宜性.结果表明,不同提取方法对Pb和Cd的提取量存在明显差异：酸性紫色土和石灰性黄壤中以HCl-Pb提取态含量最高,中性紫色土和钙质紫色土中则以EDTA-Pb提取态含量最高;除钙质紫色土以EDTA-Cd提取态含量最高外,其余3种土壤则是以HCl-Cd提取态含量最高.考虑提取量与植物吸收量之间的相关关系,在相同类型土壤上,可选择除CaCl₂外的5种提取方法作为Pb的评价方法,Cd则是6种提取方法均较适合.在不同类型土壤中,EDTA-Pb提取态和DGT-Cd提取态含量与黑麦草地上部Pb和Cd含量相关性最高,相关系数分别为0.941和0.919,说明EDTA提取适用于不同类型土壤间Pb生物有效性的比较与评价,而Cd则以DGT技术最好,化学提取剂中以HCl较为适宜.     

Toxicity of copper, lead, and cadmium on the motility of two marine microalgae Isochrysis galbana and Tetraselmis chui

Computer assisted movement tracking was used to characterize the motility of two marine microalgae, Isochrysis galbana and Tetraselmis chui, and to investigate the toxicity of Cu, Pb, and Cd on motile percentage, curvilinear velocity, average path velocity, straight line velocity, linearity, straightness, and wobble. Except for motile percentage, all other motility parameters di ered significantly between I. galbana and T. chui. Based on relative motile percentage data, the median e ective concentration (EC50) of Cu on the motility of I. galbana and T. chui was 31.4 and 1.3 mol/L, respectively, while for Pb it was 37.8 and 10.9 mol/L and for Cd it was 121.6 and 37.8 mol/L, respectively. Compared to I. galbana, T. chui was more sensitive to all tested metals. The toxic e ect of the heavy metals on motility exhibited the following decreasing order for both species: Cu > Pb > Cd. Our results indicate that I. galbana and T. chui motility is sensitive to heavy metals and can be used as an indicator for toxicology bioassays.     

Speciation and bioaccessibility of lead and cadmium in soil treated with metal-enriched Indian mustard leaves

Indian mustard (Brassica juncea (L.) Czern.) has shown good potential for the phytoremediation of soil contaminated with heavy metals. However, there is little information about the speciation and bioaccessibility of heavy metals in soil during the decomposition of metal-rich Indian mustard leaves. Incubation experiments (1-, 3-, and 6-month) were carried out in Beijing and Hunan soil with metal-rich Indian mustard leaves addition (1% and 3%) and the e ects of mustard leaves addition on the speciation and bioaccessibility of heavy metals were studied. The results showed that the addition of mustard leaves led to significant increases in pH and DOC in the Hunan soil. Both 1% and 3% of mustard leaf amendment caused the percentage of the exchangeable (F1), precipitated with carbonates (F2), bound to Fe/Mn oxides (F3) and bound to organic matter (F4) fractions of Pb and Cd to increase dramatically, while the percentage of the residual fraction (F5) of Cd and Pb significantly dropped in both Beijing and Hunan soils. Mustard leaf addition caused the bioaccessibility of Pb to decrease in the gastric phase, whereas the values increased in the small intestinal phase. The Cd bioaccessibility increased with mustard leaf addition in both the gastric and small intestinal phases. In conclusion, the metal-enriched mustard leaves addition induces Pb and Cd concentrations and their mobility increasing in the Beijing and Hunan soils. Therefore, heavy metal risk in metal-enriched plant leaves should be considered in phytoremediation system in which heavy metal might be brought back to soil and changed over time.     

柠檬酸-施氏矿物复合体对Cd和Pb的吸附研究

施氏矿物(Schwertmannite)是酸性矿区废水污染环境中典型的铁硫酸盐次生矿物,由于其较好的吸附能力成为矿区多种重金属的沉积库.环境中同时广泛存在着各种有机质,易与矿物结合形成有机质矿物复合体,从而影响矿物对重金属的吸附行为.目前关于有机质与施氏矿物形成的复合体对重金属的吸附研究相对较少.因此,本研究选取柠檬酸作为天然有机质的代表,研究不同环境条件下柠檬酸施氏矿物复合体对重金属Cd、Pb的吸附.结果表明,复合体保持着施氏矿物基本的矿物学特征,对重金属Cd和Pb的吸附行为表现出不同的趋势:复合体对Cd的吸附量整体上随着Cd浓度和pH值的升高而上升;相反,复合体对Pb的吸附量均比纯施氏矿物要低,并且随着柠檬酸含量的升高吸附量下降越明显;体系中共存的硫酸根离子(SO₄^2-)抑制了复合体对Cd的吸附,而对Pb的吸附则起到促进作用.XRD分析表明柠檬酸抑制了高pH下Pb在矿物表面形成PbSO₄沉淀.FTIR红外谱图进一步证明结合在复合体上的柠檬酸参与了对Cd和Pb的吸附过程.本研究结果有助于更好地预测Cd和Pb在矿区的迁移和归宿.

Phytoremediation potential of charophytes: Bioaccumulation and toxicity studies of cadmium, lead and zinc

The ability for usage of common freshwater charophytes,Chara aculeolata and Nitella opaca in removal of cadmium (Cd),lead (Pb) and zinc (Zn) from wastewater was examined.C.aculeolata and N.opaca were exposed to various concentrations of Cd (0.25 and 0.5 mg/L),Pb (5 and 10 mg/L) and Zn (5 and 10 mg/L) solutions under hydroponic conditions for 6 days.C.aculeolata was more tolerant of Cd and Pb than N.opaca.The relative growth rate of N.opaca was drastically reduced at high concentrations of Cd and Pb although both were tolerant of Zn.Both macroalgae showed a reduction in chloroplast,chlorophyll and carotenoid content after Cd and Pb exposure,while Zn exposure had little effects.The bioaccumulation of both Cd and Pb was higher in N.opaca (1544.3 μg/g at 0.5 mg/L Cd,21657.0 μg/g at 10 mg/L Pb) whereas higher Zn accumulation was observed in C.aculeolata (6703.5 μg/g at 10 mg/L Zn).In addition,high bioconcentration factor values (> 1000) for Cd and Pb were observed in both species.C.aculeolata showed higher percentage of Cd and Pb removal (> 95%) than N.opaca and seemed to be a better choice for Cd and Pb removal from wastewater due to its tolerance to these metals.     

Heavy metals of natural and reclaimed tidal riparian wetlands in south estuary, China

The concentrations of Cd, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb, and Zn in two plant species (Scirpus tripueter Linn. and Cyperus malaccensis Lam.), water, and soils sampled from the reclaimed tidal riparian wetlands (RTRWs) and the natural riparian wetlands (NRWs) in the Pearl River estuary (PRE), were analyzed to investigate and compare their distribution and accumulation. The results show that the concentrations of the six studied heavy metals in soils exceed the eco-toxic threshold recommended by USEPA. The concentrations of Cd, Cr, and Zn in plants may lead to toxic effects compared to others.The hydraulic conditions and the degree of human disturbances can affect the heavy metal accumulation in RTRWs and NRWs. The heavy metal concentrations in water are higher whereas they are lower in soils of RTRWs Compared with that in the NRWs. The accumulation of heavy metals in the roots of plants is higher in NRWs than those in RTRWs while the opposite result is found for heavy metal accumulation in shoots. Based on the bioaccumulation and translocation factors, the plants in NRWs have the higher capacity to accumulate heavy metals, while higher abilities to transport heavy metals from roots to shoots are observed in RTRWs. Heavy metal contaminations in RTRWs are dominated by anthropogenic sources from both side uplands and river water, whereas in NRWs, the metal accumulations are simultaneously affected by anthropogenic and natural factors.     

磷酸盐、腐殖酸与粉煤灰联合钝化处理模拟铅镉污染土壤

本研究利用过磷酸钙、腐殖酸、粉煤灰及其复配组合钝化处理人工模拟Pb、Cd污染土壤,并采用CaCl_2浸取法、三乙三胺五乙酸(DTPA)浸取法以及BCR形态分级实验评价钝化效果,利用X射线衍射仪(XRD)和扫描电子显微镜能谱(SEMEDS)分析土壤表面微观形态与结构,进一步探究其钝化机制.结果表明,除了腐殖酸单一处理,其他不同钝化处理均能降低土壤CaCl_2和DTPA提取态Pb、Cd含量,其中先添加过磷酸钙和腐殖酸,然后再添加粉煤灰的联合处理实验组效果最佳.土壤pH值与CaCl_2、DTPA提取态Pb含量存在微弱的正相关关系,与CaCl_2、DTPA提取态Cd含量存在负相关关系,速效磷含量与二者都存在显著的负相关关系,说明速效磷含量是控制土壤Pb、Cd活性的主要因素.施用磷酸盐、腐殖酸和粉煤灰可以促进Pb、Cd由活性较高的弱酸提取态向活性低的残渣态转化,从而有效降低Pb、Cd的迁移能力.XRD和SEM-EDS分析表明,过磷酸钙钝化重金属的机制主要是通过离子交换作用将重金属转化为难溶的Ca-重金属混合磷酸盐,3种钝化剂联合作用机制主要通过溶解/沉淀以及表面吸附作用将重金属转化为稳定的磷酸铅沉淀[Pb_3(PO_4)_2]或者混合重金属矿物[PbFe_3(SO_4)(PO_4)(OH)_6],从而有效钝化重金属.
