Phytoremediation of selenium by two helophyte species in subsurface flow constructed wetland 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
The phytoremediation of selenium by two different wetland species was investigated. Selenium (20.4 microg/l) was supplied continuously to subsurface flow constructed wetlands, one vegetated with Typha latifolia L. and the other with Phragmites australis (Cav.) Trin. ex Steud. The beds of both species had same hydraulic loading rate (0.079 m(3)/m(2)/d) and water retention time (24 h). However, the mass loading rate was 1.27 mg Se/m(2)/d for Phragmites and 1.35 mg Se/m(2)/d for Typha. In the Typha bed Se migrated faster than in the Phragmites bed. After 25 d of Se supplementation in the Typha bed about 54% of the Se inlet concentration remained in the outlet water. In the Phragmites bed Se was removed completely from the water after passing through 3/4 of the bed length. After 65 d of Se supplementation the highest amount of Se (2.8 microg/g dry matter) was determined in the organic material of the Typha bed. Roots and rhizomes accumulated 2.2 and 1.8 microg/g dry matter respectively. Phragmites accumulated Se in the leaves and stems, but not in the rhizomes. The accumulation in the leaves (1.8 microg Se/g dry matter) was three times higher than in the stems (0.6 microg Se/g dry matter). 相似文献

Assessing farm-level agricultural sustainability over a 60-year period in rural eastern India 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
Agricultural sustainability is a vital parameter to be ascertained locally and globally if food security is to be achieved
and maintained. Agricultural sustainability is the combined product of social, economic and ecological sustainability. It
is also a function of temporal and spatial variations, a fact which indicates that area-specific sustainability indices need
to be designed. We present here an Agricultural Sustainability Index (ASI) for rural eastern India and use it to calculate
the ASI for 150 farms for three decades over a 60-year period, viz., 1950–1960, 1980–1990 and 2000–2010 for a representative
Indian village of Gangapur (25°83′N, 85°65′E). The ASI was calculated using 30 variables, 10 each of social, economic and
ecological sustainability. An extensive questionnaire-based survey was carried out to collect the relevant data. Our study
reveals that over a 60-year period, ASI values do not show a statistically significant change. We conclude that the agricultural
practices of the region have maintained sustainability so far although the scope for improvement in several broad areas identified
by us is immense. Increased ecological literacy and better implementation of government policies, aiming at health, education
and better scientist–farmer interactions, must target improved ASI values in coming decades. 相似文献
