“…As the MSC percentage in amended sierozem soils increased, the soil EC, OM, DOC, P, K, AP, and AK increased correspondingly. Previous studies have reported similar results (Antonious et al, 2011;Yilmaz and Temizgül, 2012). Soil EC represents total salt content in soils.…”

Effects of sludge utilization on the mobility and phytoavailability of heavy metals in soil-plant systems have attracted broad attention in recent years. In this study, we analyzed the effects of municipal sludge compost (MSC) on the solubility and plant uptake of Cd, Ni, Cu, Zn and Pb in a soil-potato system to explore the mobility, potato plant uptake and enrichment of these five heavy metals in sierozem soils amended with MSC through a potato cultivation trial in Lanzhou University of China in 2014. Ridge regression analysis was conducted to investigate the phytoavailability of heavy metals in amended soils. Furthermore, CaCl 2 , CH 3 COONH 4 , CH 3 COOH, diethylene triamine pentacetic acid (DTPA) and ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA) were used to extract the labile fraction of heavy metals from the amended soils. The results show that the MSC could not only improve the fertility but also increase the dissolved organic carbon (DOC) content of sierozem soils. The total concentrations and labile fraction proportions of heavy metals increase with increasing MSC percentage in sierozem soils. In amended soils, Cd has the highest solubility and mobility while Ni has the lowest solubility and mobility among the five heavy metals. The MSC increases the concentrations of heavy metals in the root, stem, peel and tuber of the potato plant, with the concentrations being much higher in the stem and root than in the peel and tuber. Among the five heavy metals, the bioconcentration factor value of Cd is the highest, while that of Ni is the lowest. The complexing agent (DTPA and EDTA) extractable fractions of heavy metals are the highest in terms of phytoavailability. Soil properties (including organic matter, pH and DOC) have important impacts on the phytoavailability of heavy metals. Our results suggest that in soil-potato systems, although the MSC may improve soil fertility, it can also increase the risk of soils exposed to heavy metals.

“…The increase in salinity may be ascribed to soluble salts in biosolids accumulated during the treatment processes at the wastewater treatment plant (Wong et al, 1998). Increases in salinity subsequent to application of biosolids have been observed by other authors, including Yilmaz and Temizgul (2012), Wong et al (1998), etc. Despite increases in salinity, values remained between 0 and 2 dS/m, which is classified as nonsaline.…”

“…Amongst many pollutants, biosolids usually contain heavy metals (Bourioug et al, 2014;Hua et al, 2008;Forsberg and Ledin, 2006;etc) in quantities higher than those that are found in natural soils (RigueiroRodriguez et al, 2012), especially sludge from both domestic and industrial effluents (Wong et al, 1998;Yilmaz and Temizgul, 2012). In the absence of guidelines for land application of biosolids in Swaziland and the environmental risks associated with this practice, the SWSC commissioned a number of studies to investigate the impacts of biosolids in mine soils.…”

“…concentration of trace elements in the roots, first organ to come in contact with nutrients and trace elements, can be attributed to the complexation of metals with the sulfhydryl groups, resulting in less translocation to shoot (YILMAz, 2012). Unlike other adsorbents, where trace elements may become available over time, in this specific case, environmental action over the years can increase the adsorption of metal by biochars (joRIo et al, 2012).…”

The biomass pyrolysis process may be an alternative for the agricultural use of sewage sludge. This study aimed to evaluate the use of of biochars from mixture of sewage sludge and sugarcane bagasse (BB, 1:1 relationship sewage sludge and sugarcane bagasse) on sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) production and nutrition. A greenhouse experiment was conducted with five application rates of BB: 0, 2.5, 5, 7.5, and 10% (v/v), and two additional treatments, biochar from sewage sludge (BS, application rate 5% (v/v)) and conventional treatment (CV) that received lime and mineral fertilizer. The treated soils were incubated for 45 days, after which, seedlings were cultivated for 55 days. Biochar produce from sewage sludge and sugarcane bagasse is an alternative technology to reduce the potential for contamination of sewage sludge and to incorporate more stable carbon forms in the soil. Although, biochar has increased soil fertility, fine roots and nutrient uptake efficiency by sugar beet plants, total dry matter yield was significantly lower than that obtained in conventional treatment.
