[Effect of Calcium Silicate-biological Humus Fertilizer Composite on Uptake of Cd by Shallots from Contaminated Agricultural Soil].

The safety of vegetable production is a key link in reducing cadmium consumption through the food chains. Field experiments were conducted to investigate the effects of composite materials (calcium silicate-biological humus fertilizer) on the growth of shallots and the uptake of Cd by shallots from contaminated agricultural soil. Four treatments (T1: 0.

[Influencing Mechanism of Eh, pH and Iron on the Release of Arsenic in Paddy Soil].

The massive release of soil arsenic and its enrichment in rice are significantly associated with the flooded and anaerobic management in paddy soil. Soil redox potential (Eh), pH and iron oxides exert remarkable impacts on arsenic release, which remain to be explored. In this study, long-term aerobic and anaerobic as well as intermittent aerobic incubation treatments were applied to investigate the influences of Eh, pH and iron content on arsenic release.

[Study the restoration technology of concentrated application-natural diffusion about amendments of acidified soil of hilly woodland].

Through concentrated application of lime, sewage sludge and lime + sewage sludge on the sloping top of the hilly woodlands, the restoration effects of the three soil amendments on the acidified soil of hilly woodland were studied. The results showed that: (1) Joint application of sewage sludge + lime can significantly (P < 0.05) decrease soil acidity, promote the rapid increase in soil organic matter and nitrogen content, increase soil cation exchange capacity, and effectively improve acidified soil.

Degradation of rhodamine B by Fe(0)-based Fenton process with H2O2.

Degradation of rhodamine B by Fe(0)-based Fenton process with H(2)O(2) was investigated. The effects of H(2)O(2) dose, Fe(0) dose, initial concentration of rhodamine B and initial pH value on the degradation of rhodamine B were examined. The results showed that the degradation and mineralization of rhodamine B occurred with low dose of H(2)O(2) and Fe(0).

Sap flow response of Eucaylyptus (Eucalyptus urophylla) to environmental stress in South China.

Sap flow and environmental conditions were monitored at two Eucalyptus (Eucalyptus urophylla S.T.Blake) plantations at Hetou and Jijia, located in Leizhou, Zhanjiang, Guangdong Province.
