This study aims to elucidate the effect of peel biochar application on cadmium-contaminated soil and pakchoi () growth. A pot experiment was designed involving four distinct biochar/soil ratio treatments: 0 (Control, CK), 1% (T1), 2.5% (T2), and 5% (T3). The results demonstrated that the incorporation of 5% effectively modulated the pH of acidic soil, substantially elevating soil organic matter, and available N, P, K content. Moreover, it augmented the activities of catalase, urease, and acid phosphatase in the soil, concurrently diminishing the Cd content. This treatment reduced the exchangeable and carbonate-bound Cd fractions by 45% while enhancing the iron-manganese oxide-bound, organic matter-bound, and residual Cd fractions by 26%, 29%, and 96%, respectively. Regarding the growth of pakchoi, the 5% biochar application significantly decreased the Cd content in the edible portion by 51%. It significantly enhanced the fresh weight per plant, soluble solids, soluble sugar, soluble protein, and vitamin C content of pakchoi. In conclusion, the application of peel biochar is a viable approach for improving the properties of Cd-contaminated soil, passivating Cd fractions, and enhancing the yield and quality of pakchoi. A biochar pyrolysis temperature of 500 °C and a biochar/soil ratio of 5% is recommended.
本研究旨在阐明施用果皮生物炭对镉污染土壤及小白菜()生长的影响。设计了一项盆栽试验,包括四种不同的生物炭/土壤比例处理:0(对照,CK)、1%(T1)、2.5%(T2)和5%(T3)。结果表明,施用5%的生物炭能有效调节酸性土壤的pH值,显著提高土壤有机质以及有效氮、磷、钾含量。此外,它还增强了土壤中过氧化氢酶、脲酶和酸性磷酸酶的活性,同时降低了镉含量。该处理使可交换态和碳酸盐结合态镉组分减少了45%,而铁锰氧化物结合态、有机质结合态和残留态镉组分分别增加了26%、29%和96%。关于小白菜的生长,施用5%的生物炭使可食用部分的镉含量显著降低了51%。它显著提高了小白菜的单株鲜重、可溶性固形物、可溶性糖、可溶性蛋白和维生素C含量。总之,施用果皮生物炭是改善镉污染土壤性质、钝化镉组分以及提高小白菜产量和品质的可行方法。建议生物炭热解温度为500℃,生物炭/土壤比例为5%。
