Abstract: |
Pig raising has caused heavy metal contamination in soil. A study was performed to determine the effects of bio-bed pig raising on heavy metal contents in bio-bed materials at different stages, in soil under the bio-bed, and in soil out of bio-bed, using soil from the traditional pig raising in the same location as reference. After 5 months of pig raising, accumulation of heavy metals in bio-bed layer(0~40 cm)was obvious. The increments of Cu, Zn, Cr and Pb contents were 41.23, 51.73, 13.52 mg·kg-1 and 5.23 mg·kg-1, respectively. Soil Cr content was found to increase by 14.30 mg·kg-1 even in 40~80 cm underneath the bio-bed. The accumulation of Cu, Zn and Cr in the soil of traditional pig raising was 22.77, 41.83 mg·kg-1 and 5.50 mg·kg-1, respectively, higher than that in the soil out of the bio-bed. The data in this study indicate that bio-bed pig raising may have lower risk of heavy metal pollution to the surrounding soils than traditional one. |
