Effects of alkaline and bioorganic amendments on cadmium,lead, zinc,and nutrient accumulation in brown rice and grain yield in acidic paddy fields contaminated with a mixture of heavy metals

Paddy soils and rice (Oryza sativa L.) contaminated by mixed heavy metals have given rise to great concern. Field experiments were conducted over two cultivation seasons to study the effects of steel slag (SS), fly ash (FA), limestone (LS), bioorganic fertilizer (BF), and the combination of SS and BF (SSBF) on rice grain yield, Cd, Pb, and Zn and nutrient accumulation in brown rice, bioavailability of Cd, Pb, and Zn in soil as well as soil properties (pH and catalase), at two acidic paddy fields contaminated with mixed heavy metals (Cd, Pb, and Zn). Compared to the controls, SS, LS, and SSBF at both low and high additions significantly elevated soil pH over both cultivation seasons. The high treatments of SS and SSBF markedly increased grain yields, the accumulation of P and Ca in brown rice and soil catalase activities in the first cultivation season. The most striking result was from SS application (4.0 t ha^?1) that consistently and significantly reduced the soil bioavailability of Cd, Pb, and Zn by 38.5–91.2 % and the concentrations of Cd and Pb in brown rice by 20.9–50.9 % in the two soils over both cultivation seasons. LS addition (4.0 t ha^?1) also markedly reduced the bioavailable Cd, Pb, and Zn in soil and the Cd concentrations in brown rice. BF remobilized soil Cd and Pb leading to more accumulation of these metals in brown rice. The results showed that steel slag was most effective in the remediation of acidic paddy soils contaminated with mixed heavy metals.     

大清河流域表层土壤中多环芳烃的污染特征及来源分析

采集大清河流域72个表层七壤(0～20cm)样品,利用GC/MS分析技术,研究了土壤中16种优控多环芳烃的含量和组分特征,根据多环芳烃分布特征和苯并[a]蒽/(苯并[a]蒽+麓)和荧葸/(荧蒽+芘)比值分析了其污染来源,并初步评价了其污染水平.结果表明,表层土壤中16种多环芳烃含量范围为54.2-3231.6μg·kg-1,均值和中位数分别为405.1和233.2μg·kg-1.多环芳烃组分特征表现出以萘、菲等2-3环多环芳烃为主,其含量占到总含量的49%,4环和5～6环含量分别为31%和20%.大清河流域土壤多环芳烃污染主要来自于燃烧源,并表现出以生物质和煤的燃烧为主要来源的特征.相对于国内外其它地区多环芳烃检测结果和土壤标准,大清河流域土壤多环芳烃处于中等偏低污染水平,Nap和Fla是主要的超标化合物.     

典型氯酚类化合物对水生生物的毒性研究进展

氯酚类化合物(CPs)是一类广泛存在于水环境中的有机污染物。这类化合物具有环境稳定性、生物累积性和生物毒性,因而其在水环境中的生态毒理效应一直是人们关注的焦点。在水体中存在最普遍的酚类化合物主要有2,4-二氯酚(2,4-DCP),2,4,6-三氯酚(2,4,6-TCP)和五氯酚(PCP)。本文对近几年来这3种典型氯酚类化合物的水生态毒理学研究进行了总结,主要包括它们对水生生物的急性毒性、氧化损伤、发育毒性、内分泌干扰、遗传毒性、致癌性、免疫毒性、细胞毒性以及复合毒性的效应和机制,同时对目前存在的问题和进一步的研究方向进行了讨论和展望。     

三峡水库蓄水初期鲤鱼重金属富集特征及健康风险评价

于2011-2012年在三峡库区干流水域及7条典型支流中采集鲤鱼样品,通过测定鱼体肌肉组织中Cr、Cd、As、Pb、Ni、Cu和Zn等7种重金属含量,分析了三峡库区蓄水后的鱼体重金属污染水平、各金属元素之间的相关性及在库区各水域的分布特征,并利用目标危险系数(THQ)对库区居民通过食用鱼类摄入重金属的健康风险进行了评价.结果显示,所有鱼类样品中均检测出这7种重金属,但含量低于国家规定的卫生健康标准.不同重金属在鱼体肌肉中差异明显,Zn的平均含量最高(5.88 mg·kg-1),Cd平均含量最低(0.013 mg·kg-1).所有7种重金属可分为4类,式中,Cr和Cu,Pb和As相关系数较大.与库区外其他水域相比,三峡水库中鱼体重金属含量处于较低水平,且在蓄水后未发生显著变化.受到水位升高和悬浮物沉降的影响,库区内干流鱼体中大部分重金属含量变化趋势为从库尾的洛碛向库中的巫山递减.THQ法评价结果认为,食用库区鱼类健康风险较低.

石羊河流域水坝建设生态经济影响综合评价

客观评价水坝建设对区域生态、经济的影响问题,对于完善我国水利工程环境影响评价和促进水坝与生态系统的和谐发展具有重要意义.本研究根据水坝对干旱内陆河流域生态、经济影响的特点,建立了评价指标体系,对石羊河流域水坝修建初(20世纪60—70年代)和水坝运行40年后(2000—2010年)生态、经济状况进行对比评估.结果表明:1植被和水资源指数在水坝建设生态影响评价指标中具有非常重要的作用,生物丰富度指数、水网密度指数和地表水空间分布在指标层各评价因子中占据最高权重.2流域水坝建设使得区域社会经济指数有较大提高,而自然规律、生物资源和人居环境则均有不同程度的降低,反映出水坝建设对区域生态经济的促进是建立在不断消耗自然资源基础之上的,也就是说经济增长是以区域的生态环境逐步恶化为前提的,缺少生态可持续性.

Characterization of endophytic Rahnella sp. JN6 from Polygonum pubescens and its potential in promoting growth and Cd,Pb, Zn uptake by Brassica napus

Microbe-assisted phytoremediation has been considered as a promising measure for the remediation of heavy metal-polluted soils. In this study, a metal-tolerance and plant growth-promoting endophytic bacterium JN6 was firstly isolated from roots of Mn-hyperaccumulator Polygonum pubescens grown in metal-contaminated soil and identified as Rahnella sp. based on 16S rDNA gene sequence analysis. Strain JN6 showed very high Cd, Pb and Zn tolerance and effectively solubilized CdCO₃, PbCO₃ and Zn₃(PO₄)₂ in culture solution. The isolate produced plant growth-promoting substances such as indole-3-acetic acid, siderophore, 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic deaminase, and also solubilized inorganic phosphate. Based upon its ability in metal tolerance and solubilization, the isolate JN6 was further studied for its effects on the growth and accumulation of Cd, Pb and Zn in Brassica napus (rape) by pot experiments. Rape plants inoculated with the isolate JN6 had significantly higher dry weights, concentrations and uptake of Cd, Pb and Zn in both above-ground and root tissues than those without inoculation grown in soils amended with Cd (25 mg kg^?1), Pb (200 mg kg^?1) or Zn (200 mg kg^?1). The isolate also showed a high level of colonization in tissue interior of rapes. The present results demonstrated that Rahnella sp. JN6 is a valuable microorganism, which can cost-effectively improve the efficiency of phytoremediation in soils contaminated by Cd, Pb and Zn.
