Purpose  

Accumulated soil phosphorus (P) in agricultural lands due to long-term organic manure and mineral phosphate fertilizer input is considered one of the main non-point pollution sources to surrounding surface water bodies. A chronosequence of soils is a potent instrument for pedological investigation and allows assessment of the effect of duration of agricultural cultivation on the environmental risk to water bodies of P loss from soil.  相似文献

Purpose  

Chlorimuron-ethyl is a sulfonylurea herbicide widely used to control many annual broadleaf weeds, and the residue for a long period posed a heavy hazard to rotational crops or vegetables. Knowledge about effect of soil pH and organic matter on desorption processes of chlorimuron-ethyl remains obscure. In this study, desorption behavior of chlorimuron-ethyl as a function of soil pH and organic matter was investigated.  相似文献

Purpose  

The aim of this work was to study the effect of ‘trace element-rich litter’ on the properties of two reforested polluted soils of different pH values (acidic and neutral) in terms of (1) availability of trace elements and (2) chemical and biochemical properties of the soil at different pH. We hypothesized that this litter would affect several parameters related to the organic matter cycle in soils, depending on initial soil pH.  相似文献

Purpose  

The remediation of soil polluted by polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) is of great importance due to the persistence and carcinogenic properties of PAHs. Phytoremediation has been regarded as a promising alternative among suggested approaches. For the establishment of highly effective remediation method and better understanding of the remediation mechanisms by plants, the potentials of three plant species and their planting patterns on the remediation efficacy were studied by pot experiments.  相似文献

Purpose  

Naturally occurring layer silicate clay minerals can be value added by modifying their surface properties to enhance their efficacy in the remediation of environmental contaminants. Silicate clay minerals modified by the introduction of organic molecules into the mineral structure are known as organoclays and show much promise for environmental remediation applications. The present study assesses the extent of decrease in bioavailable and bioaccessible arsenic (As) via enhanced adsorption by soil treated with organoclays.  相似文献

Purpose  

Sono-Fenton-like process was tested to degrade naphthalene in spiked soil utilizing mineral iron as a catalyst to generate radical species as well as to evaluate the efficiency of the proposed method and to optimize the treatment conditions. The study assessed the relationships between the most significant process variables (initial naphthalene and hydrogen peroxide concentrations) and their response on naphthalene degradation efficiency using central composite design at various ultrasound irradiation intensities. The electrical energy per order was also calculated to illustrate economic benefits of this “hybrid” technique.  相似文献

Background

Evidence of trivalent manganese (Mn3+) in the aqueous phase of soils is unknown so far although this strong oxidant has large environmental implications.

Aims

We aimed to modify a spectrophotometric protocol (porphyrin method) and to discriminate between Mn2+ and Mn3+ in the aqueous phase of forest soils based on kinetic modeling.

Methods

We investigated manganese speciation in 12 forest floor solutions and 41 soil solutions from an acidic forest site by adjusting pH and correcting for absorbance.

Results

The solutions showed broad ranges in pH (3.4−6.3), dissolved organic carbon (DOC, 1.78−77.1 mg C L−1), and total Mn (MnT, 23.9−908 µg L−1). For acidic solutions, a pH-buffer was added to increase the pH of the solutions to 7.5−8.0, and background absorption was corrected for colored solutions, that is, solutions high in DOC. This was done to accelerate the reaction kinetics and avoid overestimation of MnT concentrations. After the pH and color adjustments, the comparison of MnT concentrations between the porphyrin method and optical emission spectrometry showed good agreement. Trivalent Mn, which is stabilized by organic ligands, constitutes significant proportions in both forest floor solutions (10−87%) and soil solutions (0.5−74%).

Conclusions

The dissolved Mn3+ is present in acidic forest soils. Thus, we revise the paradigm that this species is not stable and encourage to apply the revised method to other soils.  相似文献

Purpose  

UK local authorities are required by environmental regulations to keep a public register of contaminated land. In many towns and cities, there is growing concern of allotment holders about the quality of their allotment soils. Limited information on soil chemistry is available for the southwest of England. This work was carried out to assess whether any allotment and park soil in Bristol could be defined as “contaminated”.  相似文献

Purpose  

The dynamics and availability of potassium (K) in soils depend on many factors, including the mineralogy of fractions and the soil geochemical conditions. The objective of this work is to quantify K in distinct lowland soil compartments in the south of Brazil, relating them to particle size fractions and mineralogical constitution.  相似文献

Purpose  

Gardening (especially food growing) in urban areas is becoming popular, but urban soils are often very contaminated for historical reasons. There is lack of sufficient information as to the bioavailability of soil heavy metals to plants and human in urban environments. This study examines the relative leachability of Cr, Ni, As, Cd, Zn, and Pb for soils with varying characteristics. The speciation and mobility of these metals can be qualitatively inferred from the leaching experiments. The goal is to use the data to shed some light on their bioavailability to plant and human, as well as the basis for soil remediation.  相似文献

Purpose  

Secondary ion mass spectrometry at the nanoscale (NanoSIMS) is a new and promising technique in soil science, as it allows us to explore the elemental and isotopic composition of a solid sample with high sensitivity at a submicron scale. In this study, we demonstrate that it is possible to differentiate the major components of soils by this technique.  相似文献

Availability of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in aging soils   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  

Purpose  

The soil contamination by hydrophobic organic contaminants (HOCs), such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), poses great threats to human health and ecological security and attracts worldwide concerns. The total HOC concentrations overestimate its available fraction to the soil biota. Increased understanding of the availabilities of PAHs in soil environment will have considerable benefits for their risk assessment and be very instructive to food safety and remediation strategies in contaminated sites. However, the availability of PAHs in aging soils and particularly the correlations of the availabilities with their forms in soils have yet to be elucidated. In this work, the availabilities of PAHs in aging soils were evaluated using a sequential mild extraction technique.  相似文献
