“…In the present study, sludge and compost complied with current regulations. Its application to soil showed no differences among treatments in pH, electrical conductivity (Table ) or nutrient translocation efficiency, as in other similar research works with wheat, or others carrried with maize fertilised with ash from municipal sewage sludge combustion . Some studies have demonstrated that the application form affects nutrient translocation in wheat grain, which is more effective when achieved by leaves …”

“…Its application to soil showed no differences among treatments in pH, electrical conductivity ( Table 2) or nutrient translocation efficiency, as in other similar research works with wheat, 33,16 or others carrried with maize fertilised with ash from municipal sewage sludge combustion. 34 Some studies have demonstrated that the application form affects nutrient translocation in wheat grain, which is more effective when achieved by leaves. 16 Bowszys et al 3 investigated how composted sewage sludge significantly raised the soil content of available forms of Cu and Zn but, as in our case, it did not change the soil nutrient abundance class.…”

“…It limited the accumulation of phosphorus, while having no effect on the plant content of the remaining macronutrients submitted to analysis. Increase in the accumulation of nitrogen (14.7%) and calcium (8.6%) in maize growing on soil previously treated with ash from thermal conversion of sewage sludge was also reported by I żewska and Wołoszyk [87]. In that experiment, the highest dose of fly ash (65.40 kg ha −1 ) resulted in an increase in the content of phosphorus and calcium in grain by 33.0% and 33.6%, respectively, compared to the series treated with mineral fertilizers (NPK).…”

Petroleum hydrocarbons, as aggressive components of diesel oils, after migration to the land environment can alter the activity and efficiency of ecosystems. They can also be dangerous to animal and human health. Eco-friendly methods for the reclamation of affected soils is necessary to manage degraded lands. One such method is the use of ashes. The aim of this research was to determine how soil pollution with diesel oil (brand name, Eco-Diesel) affects the chemical composition of maize (Zea mays L.) and whether the application of ash from a combined heat and power plant, as well as from sewage sludge incineration, could reduce the potentially adverse impact of diesel oil on plants. The research results demonstrated that soil contamination with Eco-Diesel oil modified the content of selected macronutrients in the analyzed crop plant. Eco-Diesel oil had a negative effect on maize yield. The highest diesel oil dose in a series without neutralizing substances had a positive effect on the accumulation of most elements, except nitrogen and sodium. Soil enrichment with ash differentiated the content of macronutrients, mainly nitrogen and phosphorus, in the aerial biomass of maize. The ashes increased the yield of maize and content of some macronutrients, mainly nitrogen but also calcium, the latter in a series where soil was treated with ash from sewage sludge thermal recycling. Both types of ash also resulted in a decrease in the plant content of phosphorus, while ash from hard coal caused a slight reduction in the content of potassium in maize. Ash of different origins can be an effective solution in the reclamation of degraded soils, which may then be used for growing energy crops.

“…These results of pot research differ from the findings of our field experiments. However, in another field experiment by Iżewska and Wołoszyk [65], the P content in maize grain and straw did not differ when 21.8 kg P/ha was applied in the form of SSA or SP. The authors also noted that the P content in grain and straw increased when SSA was applied at 65.4 kg P/ha, but no SP at the same P dose was applied to compare, so this result is inconclusive.…”

Can Phosphorus from Recycled Fertilisers Replace Conventional Sources? An Agronomic Evaluation in Field-Scale Experiments on Temperate Luvisols

Facing phosphate rock scarcity, growing food requirements and pollution problems with phosphorus (P)-containing waste, re-using P as fertiliser is becoming a real need. Innovative fertilisers from sewage sludge ash, animal bones and blood, activated by phosphorus solubilising microorganisms (PSM), were tested in field experiments with winter or spring wheat and compared with commercial fertilisers (superphosphate, phosphorite). Three levels of P doses were established (17.6, 26.4 and 35.2 kg/ha). This paper discusses the fertilisers’ impact on total soil P content and on the P content and P accumulation in wheat grain and straw, weeds and post-harvest residues. Recycled fertilisers maintained soil P stocks and supplied plants with P in the same way as traditional fertilisers, and ensured a comparable P pool in the post-harvest residues to traditional fertilisers. They also did not favour weeds during competitive crop-weed interactions. The PSM included in waste-fertilisers did not exert an evident effect on the soil P content or on the P content and P accumulation in plant biomass. The findings show the potential of recycled fertilisers to act as a substitute to fertilisers from primary sources. Further field research is needed to settle the question of the reasonability of PSM inclusion into fertilisers.
