Approximately 8 h were required at 25°C for food to pass from mouth to anus in the earthworm Lumbricus terrestris. Gut load per unit transit appeared inversely related to nitrogen content; values of about 2 and 44 mg dry castings per 100mg dry worm were obtained with activated sludge and mineral soil, respectively. Production of biomass was greater in a substrate of activated sludge and loam relative to activated sludge and cellulose, despite higher concentrations of nitrogen in the latter. Optimum population density was about 8 earthworms (31 g live wt) in 1000cm3 2:1 sludge:soil. Growth occurred at a maximum rate between 15 and 25°C. A yield of approximately 4% biomass (dry wt) was obtained on a mixture of activated sludge and loam, based on the content of organic matter present.  相似文献

The growth of Eisenia foetida (Savigny) (200–300 mg live weight) was measured on mixtures of inorganic salts, vitamins, and cellulose upon a base of ashed loam or sand. High concentrations of inorganic salts, exceeding an ionic conductivity of about 8mS cm?1 were detrimental, and lower concentrations failed to promote growth.Hatchlings (5 mg live wt) grew to 233 ± 14 mg (SE) on 22 species of bacteria (100 mg dry wt) at 24±1°C, in 8 weeks. There were no significant differences in growth on Gram-negative versus Gram-positive bacteria. Human pathogens were no less nutritive than non-pathogenic species.There was no growth on 6 of 19 species of fungi. Only 31% weight (70 ± 16 mg) was gained per unit weight of fungi as per unit weight of bacteria (100 mg dry microbial biomass).Worms grew as well (274 ± mg) on three species of protozoa as on 22 bacterial species. Growth on any microorganisms tested was less than on activated sludge.E. foetida doubled in weight on the fungus Coriolus hirsutus with the addition of sand or ashed loam. With either of these two forms of grit and microorganisms there was no growth. For growth, a combination of carbohydrate (cellulose), microorganisms and grit appeared necessary. Lyophilized microorganisms had to be washed free of ionic conductivity (and presumably organic residues) from their culture medium for earthworms to grow favorably.  相似文献

Abstract

Alkaline‐treated wastewater sludges with varying doses of fly ash were added to a clay soil at rates equivalent to 100 t (dry weight) raw sludge ha?1 soil, and the variations in ammonium, nitrate, and total nitrogen contents were monitored throughout an incubation period of 360 days at 28°C. The results showed that inhibition of organic nitrogen mineralization occurred in soil amended with fly ash–containing sludge during the first 90 days of incubation. After the total incubation period of 360 days, the inhibition effects of alkaline sludge amendments totally disappeared. In fact, mineralization was enhanced in alkaline pasteurized sludges containing 80% and 120% fly ash. The overall results indicated that application of sludges amended with fly ash may prolong the use (3 to 6 months) of nitrogen from the organic nitrogen pool in sludge.  相似文献

In dairy farming, recirculation and continuous use of nutrients are necessary for sustainable nutrient management in both the short- and long-term. When managed effectively, nutrient recycling can improve soil fertility. On the other hand, if applied nutrients are in excess of the soil’s nutrient holding capacity, nutrients can enter surface and ground water bodies resulting in eutrophication. Phosphorus (P) characterisation in manure, pond sludge and crust, in terms of plant availability, is the first step to sustainably manage nutrients within dairy farms. In this study, pond sludge and crust were characterised for P using a sequential fractionation method. Pond sludge and crust contained significant amounts of labile P. Water extractable P (H2O-P) in primary anaerobic pond and secondary facultative pond sludges was found to be about 8 to 13 times higher than the amount found in the surface soil (0–10 cm) of a grazing paddock. Similarly, sodium bicarbonate extractable P (NaHCO3-P) in the two types of sludges was found to be about 6 times higher than in the soil. The relatively higher labile P (H2O-P and NaHCO3-P) in sludge compared to soil indicates that the sludge can be utilised as a P fertilizer on grazing pasture. In contrast, lower H2O-P compared to that of raw manure indicates that the use of sludge and crust instead of raw manure can reduce the possibility of P loss by surface runoff and leaching. Hence, it is preferable to use pond sludge and crust as fertiliser instead of raw manure.  相似文献

Effect of metal toxicity on the size of the soil microbial biomass   总被引：8，自引：0，他引：8  
The amount of soil microbial biomass was measured by the chloroform fumigation technique on agricultural soils which had been previously treated with different bulky organic manures. Amounts of soil microbial biomass in soils receiving sewage sludge or sludge-containing composts were much smaller than in soils which received farmyard manure over the same period. This effect was attributed to the toxic metals present in the sludges and was readily detectable more than 20 years after the last sludge application.  相似文献

The inactivation of Escherichia coli O157:H7 (CCUG 44857) and Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium was investigated in two agricultural soils (sandy loam and silty clay) amended with poultry manure, cattle manure slurry or human urine. The study was performed in soil lysimeters placed outdoors, and was repeated over two consecutive years. The amendments, inoculated with E. coli O157:H7 and Salmonella Typhimurium, were mixed with soil on the top of the lysimeters. Samples were collected from the top 5-cm layer of each lysimeter at regular intervals, and the inactivation was monitored over 6 months, by the plate spread method and by enrichment. The inactivation was modelled by fitting a non-linear model to the data, and pathogen reduction times were calculated (90 and 99% reduction). The results showed that the inactivation of E. coli O157:H7 and Salmonella Typhimurium varied depending on the manure type used and its carbon content. The longest inactivation time occurred in samples amended with poultry manure, in which both E. coli O157:H7 and Salmonella Typhimurium were detected up to day 90 with the spread plate method. The most rapid inactivation for both pathogens occurred in soil amended with urine. However, low amounts of culturable E. coli O157:H7 and Salmonella Typhimurium were detected by enrichment throughout the study period (180 days), regardless of manure type.  相似文献

ABSTRACT

This experiment was conducted under greenhouse conditions using a sandy clay loam treated with garbage and mushroom composts, cattle and chicken manures, or municipal sludge at rates of 0, 30, or 60 ton ha?1. The organic materials were applied to the pots and incubated for 15 d. The soil samples were watered at field capacity. In this experiment, wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) was used as a test crop. At the end of the experiment, it was found that treating sandy clay loam with the organic materials increased plant total and grain yields, protein content, 1000-kernel weight, number of grains in spike, and accumulation of nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), potassium (K), iron (Fe), zinc (Zn), and manganese (Mn) by wheat compared with the control treatment, depending on the organic material applications. Thus, the increases were found to be statistically significant (P ≤ 0.05). Among the types of organic materials, the sewage sludge was the most effective material in increasing N, P, K, Fe, Zn, and Mn content of leaf, grain, and stem samples of the wheat plant. It was followed by mushroom compost and cattle manure. Based on the results, sewage sludge and garbage compost are suggested for use as an amendment for the soil studied. Comparing the beneficial effects of the organic materials applied for improving plant growth and nutrient accumulation, the materials can be arranged in the following descending order: municipal sludge > chicken manure > cattle manure > garbage compost > mushroom compost. It is suggested that recycling of organic materials for agricultural usage as an organic-matter resource is an alternative, organic fertilization option in Turkey.  相似文献

Thirty eight low molecular weight aromatic compounds, two humic acids, and five lignins were tested for their effects on the growth and survival of the earthworm Eisenia foetida with activated sludge as food source. Benzenoid molecules with two methoxyl or methyl groups were generally more toxic than analogous molecules substituted with one or two hydroxyl groups instead. Placing a carboxyl group or groups on a molecule of relatively high toxicity tended to reduce its toxicity or to result in a totally innocuous substance. Tannins and molecules which could be easily polymerized to form tannin-like substances were generally non-inhibitory to growth, as were humic acids and lignins.  相似文献

A pot experiment was conducted in the greenhouse to investigate the effects of composted sewage sludge as a soil amendment on growth and mineral composition of ‘Mustang’ tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb.). Three desert soils (loamy sand, sandy loam, clay) were amended with two different composted sewage sludges (city and county) at rates of 0, 7.5, 15, 30 and 60% by volume. Tall fescue was grown in the amended soils for four months. Growth rates, measured as harvested clippings, increased with sludge loading rate and also with clay content of the soil. Higher growth rates were maintained with the city as compared to the county sludge, although for both sources, growth declined for most treatments after nine weeks. Turf color ratings and percent N in the tissue increased with sludge loading rate and were highly correlated. Tissue analysis indicated a varied response between soil types.  相似文献

A new European Union legislation on sludge treatment isbeing introduced that will replace the one currently in force.The control of heavy metals is an important aspect of this newlegislation. The most common methodology to examine the metalcontent of sludges is determination of total metal contentafter total or pseudo total digestion of the sludge samples.Nevertheless, this kind of analysis is not informative on theavailability or mobility of the metals; a metal speciationanalysis is therefore required. In this study, sludge samplesfrom conventional activated sludge wastewater treatment plants(WWTP) were collected at different stages of an anaerobicsludge treatment process. In these samples, the total metalcontent and the distribution of metal species were determined(Al, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Hg, Mn, Mo, Ni, Pb, Ti, Zn) followinga protocol of sequential extraction. Only 14% of the metalwas present in readily available forms in the treated sludges.In composted sludges, this value dropped to 6%.  相似文献

There is conflicting evidence, and therefore continuing concern, as to whether metals in sewage sludge are deleterious to soil microbial processes and long-term agricultural productivity. Nine field experiments with sewage sludge cakes, three with metal-amended liquid sludges and three with inorganic metal salts were set up across Britain in 1994 to give individual metal dose–response treatments to try to answer this question. This study reports on the effects of Zn, Cu and Cd on the population size of Rhizobium leguminosarum biovar trifolii, a nitrogen fixing symbiont of white clover (Trifolium repens), in soils from these experiments over 11 years. Significant (P < 0.05) reductions in indigenous rhizobial numbers occurred on the Zn metal dose–response treatments at eight of the sludge cake sites in 2005, but few consistent effects were evident on the Cu or Cd metal dose–response treatments during the 11-year monitoring period. The soil total Zn concentrations where effects occurred were near to the UK statutory limit of 300 mg kg?1 for soils receiving sewage sludge. No significant reductions occurred in any treatments on the metal-amended liquid sludge or inorganic metal salt experiments in which the metals would be expected to be in a more bioavailable form, even after 11 years. The effects in the sludge cake experiments were related consistently with soil total Zn, with no recovery to date. The reductions in clover rhizobial numbers in the sludge cake experiments were due to Zn effects on free-living rhizobia in the soil, with gradual die-off over a long time with increasing soil total Zn concentrations. Currently, no consistent adverse effects on rhizobia have been seen at the UK limits for Cu and Cd of 135 and 3 mg kg?1, respectively.  相似文献

In a long‐term study of the effects on soil fertility and microbial activity of heavy metals contained in sewage sludges, metal‐amended liquid sludges each with elevated Zn, Cu or Cd concentrations were applied over a 3‐year period (1995–1997) to three sites in England. The experiments were sited adjacent to experimental plots receiving metal‐rich sludge cakes enabling comparisons to be made between the effects of heavy metal additions in metal‐amended liquid sludges and sludge cakes. The liquid sludge additions were regarded as ‘worst case’ treatments in terms of likely metal availability, akin to a long‐term situation following sewage sludge additions where organic matter levels had declined and stabilised. The aim was to establish individual Zn (50–425 mg kg?1), Cu (15–195 mg kg?1) and Cd (0.3–4.0 mg kg?1) metal dose–response treatments at each site, but with significantly smaller levels of organic matter addition than the corresponding sludge cake experiments. There were no differences (P > 0.05) in soil respiration rates, biomass carbon concentrations or most probable numbers of clover Rhizobium between the treatments at any of the sites at the end of the liquid sludge application programme. Soil heavy metal extractability differed between the metal‐amended liquid sludge and metal‐rich sludge cake treatments; Zn and Cd extractabilities were higher from the liquid sludge additions, whereas Cu extractability was higher from the sludge cake application. These differences in metal extractability in the treated soil samples reflected the contrasting NH4NO3 extractable metal contents of the metal‐amended liquid sludges and sludge cakes that were originally applied.  相似文献

A knowledge of some biophysical factors controlling the stability of microaggregates is important in understanding the mechanism involved in soil slaking, surface sealing, crusting, and erosion by water. A laboratory study was undertaken to evaluate the role of antecedent moisture content, cattle manure and wetting and drying cycles on the stability of microaggregates (<0.2 mm) of three texturally-contrasting soils from Lamporecchio, Vicarello and Cremona in northcentral Italy.In all experiments the order of microaggregate stability was Vicarello (clay) > Cremona (sandy-clay loam) > Lamporecchio (sandy loam) soils. This reflected decreasing clay contents and silica: alumina ratio. Maximum aggregation of particles <0.05 mm occurred at about −1.5 MPa moisture content in all soils. At the highest antecedent moisture content used (50%, w/w), the aggregation of the <0.05 mm particles was 2.77, 14.96 and 12.86% respectively for Lamporecchio, Vicarello and Cremona soils.In the Lamporecchio soil, aggregation of particles <0.05 mm increased with manure rate whereas in the Cremona and Vicarello soils, maximum aggregation of the <0.05 mm and <0.002 mm particles was obtained at the 2 and 6% rates respectively. The least disaggregation of particles <0.2 mm occurred at the 3 cycles of wetting and drying in all soils while maximum disaggregation was obtained at the 15 cycles.  相似文献

The aim of the present study was to determine the influence of light soil fertilization using sewage sludges or composts on soil toxicity for three plant species (Lepidium sativum, Sorgo saccharatum, and Sinapis alba) and crustaceans (Heterocypris incongruens). The results obtained were compared to the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAHs) content as a potential toxicity factor. The PAH content in soils fertilized with sludges was proportional to the dose applied. Soil fertilization with the studied materials negatively influenced plant growth and development. The negative influence was clearer in the case of sewage sludges than composts. Both sludges and composts significantly influenced H. incongruens mortality. However, the influence of sludges and composts on H. incongruens growth did not exceed 20%. The EC50 and LC50 values calculated on the basis of toxicity parameters showed that H. incongruens was characterized by a higher sensitivity to sludges and composts than most of the plants. L. sativum was characterized by the lowest EC50 values among all plants. No significant relationships between sewage sludge or compost toxicity and their PAHs content were observed.  相似文献

Abstract. Paper sludge composted or stored in static piles for six months was compared to raw and lime-stabilized sludge in a three-year pot experiment (loam) and a four-year field experiment (silt loam) at rates of up to 40 t DM ha-l. The original sludge contained equal amounts of fibre sludge and biological sludge, mixed with bark in 1:1 ratio to improve the structure. The N content in composted sludge (1.30%) was markedly lower than that of the uncomposted piles (1.98%), indicating significant loss during composting. The yield results were generally inversely proportionate to the C:N ratios of the sludges applied. Sludge from the uncomposted piles gave significant grain yield increases in the year following sludge application, while the other sludge types gave variable results. In the residual years there was, generally, a small but positive effect on yield from all the sludge types. The N and P content in grain generally increased with sludge application, but only the higher rates gave statistically significant increases. Sludge application also increased the Zn content in grain, while Mn, B and Cu was less affected. The increase in Cd content was very small. The 40 t ha-l sludge rate tended to increase the residual mineral N in soil at the field site and thus the risk of nitrate leaching.  相似文献

Water-repellent(WR) soil greatly influences infiltration behavior. This research determined the impacts of WR levels of silt loam soil layer during infiltration. Three column scenarios were utilized, including homogeneous wettable silt loam or sand, silt loam over sand(silt loam/sand), and sand over silt loam(sand/silt loam). A 5-cm thick silt loam soil layer was placed either at the soil surface or 5 cm below the soil surface. The silt loam soil used had been treated to produce different WR levels, wettable, slightly WR, strongly WR, and severely WR. As the WR level increased from wettable to severely WR, the cumulative infiltration decreased. Traditional wetting front-related equations did not adequately describe the infiltration rate and time relationships for layered WR soils. The Kostiakov equation provided a good fit for the first infiltration stage. Average infiltration rates for wettable, slightly WR, strongly WR, and severely WR during the 2 nd infiltration stage were 0.126, 0.021, 0.002, and 0.001 mm min~(-1) for the silt loam/sand scenario,respectively, and 0.112, 0.003, 0.002, and 0.000 5 mm min~(-1) for the sand/silt loam scenario, respectively. Pseudo-saturation phenomena occurred when visually examining the wetting fronts and from the apparent changes in water content(?θ_(AP)) at the slightly WR,strongly WR, and severely WR levels for the silt loam/sand scenario. Much larger ?θAPvalues indicated the possible existence of finger flow. Delayed water penetration into the surface soil for the strongly WR level in the silt loam/sand scenario suggested negative water heads with infiltration times longer than 10 min. The silt loam/sand soil layers produced sharp transition zones of water content. The WR level of the silt loam soil layer had greater effects on infiltration than the layer position in the column.  相似文献

Abstract. People in rural areas have disposed of their wastes on land for centuries, relying on the soil's ability to degrade and render harmless any toxic elements the wastes may contain. Leather tanneries produce a large amount of sludge and liquid wastes. The liquids contain much sodium and in most circumstances adversely affect both the soil and groundwater. However, in some countries they are used for irrigation. The sludges contain nitrogen, calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, trivalent chromium and some sodium. Given careful management these sludges can be used as soil amendments, either directly or after composting. Application rates of about 200 tonnes ha−1 have proved toxic to crops in pot trials, though larger applications than this have not adversely affected crops in the field. Much smaller rates, of less than 20 tonnes ha−1, have been used in the field to minimize nitrate contamination of groundwater. The effects of CrIII depend on complex interactions between the sludge, the soil to which it is added and the plant species grown. Safe limits for the disposal of the sludges and their long term effects are not known.  相似文献

Effects of N-enriched sewage sludge on soil enzyme activities   总被引：5，自引：0，他引：5  
Sewage sludge is increasingly used as an organic amendment to soil, especially to soil containing little organic matter. However, little is known about utility of this organic amendment with N-enriched or adjusted C:N ratios in soil. We studied the effects of adding of different doses (0, 100, 200 and 300 t ha−1) and C:N ratios (3:1, 6:1 and 9:1) of sewage sludge on enzyme activities (β-glucosidase, alkaline phosphatase, arylsulphatase and urease) in a clay loam soil at 25 °C and 60% soil water holding capacity. Nitrogen was added in the form of (NH4)2 SO4 solution to the sludge to reduce the C:N ratio from 9:1 to 6:1 and 3:1. The addition of different doses and C:N ratios of the sludge caused a rapid and significant in the enzymatic activities in soils, this increase was specially noticeable in soil treated with high doses of the sludge. In general, enzymatic activities in sludge-amended soils tended to decrease with the incubation time. All activities reached peak values at 30 days incubation and then gradually decreased up to 90 days of incubation. Sewage sludges also the increased available metal (Cu, Ni, Pb and Zn) contents in the soils. However, the presence of available soil metals due to the addition of the sludge at all doses and C:N ratios did negatively affect all enzymatic activities in the soils. This experiment indicated that all doses and C:N ratios of sewage sludge applied to soil would have harmful effects on enzymatic activity. Some heavy metals found in sewage sludge may negatively influence soil enzyme activities during the decomposition of the sludge.  相似文献
