Abstract:
      Immobilization is a low cost technique of remediating heavy metal-polluted soils. However, the efficiency of this technique is greatly influenced by soil water, oxidation-reduction and pH. Here a two-year pot experiment was conducted to investigate the impact of different water management(continuous flooding, wet-dry cycling and moist irrigation) on immobilization stability and nitrogen and phosphorus availability of cadmium polluted red soil after immobilization remediation with biochar and chicken manure. Compared with wet-dry cycling irrigation, continuous flooding and moist irrigation inhibited the aboveground biomass of rice in non-remediated soils during two year period. In remediated soils, however, the yields of rice grains in the second year were 2.7%~5.1% higher than those of the first year. Remediation significantly decreased exchangeable Cd content under continuous flooding, wet-dry cycling and moist irrigation, but there was no statistical difference in soil Cd availability between two years(P>0.05). Immobilization resulted in 34.5%~44.4% and 31.7%~45.0% reduction in Cd concentrations in brown rice, and 33.6% and 25.1% decrease in root Cd, for the first and second year, respectively. The content of Fe(Ⅱ) on rice root surface under remediation treatments increased by 27.3%, 59.1% and 65.0%, respectively, in continuous flooding, wet-dry cycling and moist irrigation, as compared with non-remediated soils. Correlation analysis revealed a significant negative linear relationship between Fe(Ⅱ) and Cd contents in the root coating of rice(r=0.61). There was a positive relationship between Cd content in brown rice and root coating(r=0.56), but there was a negative relationship between Cd concentration in brown rice and Fe(Ⅱ) in root coating(r=0.51). No significant changes in the content of soil available nitrogen and phosphorus were found in two-year experiment.
