All the three metals were applied, separately,at five different levels that were: Cd at 5, 15, 30, 60 and 100 μg g-1; Pb at 100, 200, 300, 450 and 600 μg g-1 and Zn at 50, 100, 150, 200 and 250 μg g-1 soil. In comparison to uncontaminated soil, the microbial biomass carbon and biomass nitrogen decreased sharply in soils contaminated with Cd, Ph and Zn. A more considerable increase in the microbial biomass C: N ratio was observed in the metal contaminated soils than the non-treated control. Among the tested metals, Cd displayed the greatest biocidal effect followed by Zn and Pb, showing their relative toxicity in the order of Cd > Zn > Pb.展开更多

The seeds of three wheat strains (Yunmai29, 1257, 5118) which had grown in contaminated area, Huize Lead Zinc Mine, Yunnan Province of China and in uncontaminated area were taken as the experimental materials. No obvious change of DNA structure was detected, but there were many differences in the DNA transcription levels. These results implied that lead, cadmium and zinc might inhibit DNA transcription and had much more effect on gene expression than structure in wheat, which might acclimate to metal pollution after having grown in pollution area for a long time and the interference of these metal ions in gene expression might be one of main mechanisms of metal toxicity and plant adaptation. The results also showed the microevolution of wheat in the lead zinc mine.展开更多

The study was conducted using a completely mixed batch technique. Quantitative evaluation of the experimental results showed that the adsorption capacity of oxine impregnated activated carbon was higher than that of the virgin activated carbon for the three heavy metals. For oxine impregnated activated carbon, the Freundlieh distribution coefficient, kd , values were 23, 100, and 104 times larger than those of the virgin activated carbon for cadmium, copper, and zinc, respectively. Moreover, for oxine impregnated activated carbon, the kd values followed the sequence Cu 〉 Zn 〉 Cd which aggress well with the stability constants reported in the literature for the complexation of the three heavy metals with 8-Hydroxyquinoline.展开更多

This paper aimed to study the electrode position on the removal of aqueous solutions of cadmium, lead and copper, using an electrolytic cell with a metallic screen cathode of carbon steel and platinum anode. Removal efficiencies were obtained by analysis of the solutions before and after treatment, using the methodology of cathodic-stripping voltammetry with a mercury drop electrode to quantify the concentrations of Cd<sup>2+</sup>, Pb2<sup>2+</sup> and Cu<sup>2+</sup>. Removal efficiencies were obtained of 94.07% for cadmium, 94.71% for lead and 96.19% for copper, demonstrating that electrolytic removal is an effective technique for the removal of these metals from simulated industrial wastewater.展开更多

The experiment was carried out as a 2×2×4 factorial with four rice genotypes and two levels of Cu and Cd in nutrient solution. Plants were grown in a growth chamber with controlled environment. The results showed a significant difference between the biomass of different rice genotypes (P 〈 0.001). The Cd and Cu concentration in the solution had no significant effect on the biomass. The addition of Cu significantly decreased Cd uptake by shoots and roots of rice (P 〈 0.001). The Cd concentration did not significantly influence Ca uptake by plants, whereas the Cu concentration did (P = 0.034). There was a significant influence of Cd on Fe uptake by shoots and roots (P 〈 0.001, P = 0.003, respectively). Zn uptake decreased significantly as the addition of Cd and Cu increased in shoots. We concluded that Cu had significant influence on Cd uptake. The possible mechanisms were discussed.展开更多

Except for motile percentage, all other motility parameters differed significantly between L galbana and T. chui. Based on relative motile percentage data, the median effective concentration (ECs0) of Cu on the motility of L galbana and T. chui was 31.4 and 1.3 gmol/L, respectively, while for Pb it was 37.8 and 10.9 ~tmol/L and for Cd it was 12 1.6 and 37.8 ~tmol/L, respectively. Compared to L galbana, T. chui was more sensitive to all tested metals. The toxic effect of the heavy metals on motility exhibited the following decreasing order for both species: Cu 〉 Pb 〉 Cd. Our results indicate that L galbana and T. chui motility is sensitive to heavy metals and can be used as an indicator for toxicology bioassays.展开更多

To improve purification efficiency, a replacement-column purification device was proposed and its mass transfer characteristics and purification efficiency were experimentally studied. The results show that purification efficiency increases with the decrease of the zinc powder diameter and decreases with the increase of solution velocity. If appropriate structure and operation parameters are used, it is possible to make purification efficiency more than 99%, but the diameter of zinc powder should be larger than 0.45 mm. For the velocity of 0.05-0.7 cm/s, mass transfer coefficient kc is in the range of 3.94×10-7-2.76×10-6 m/s, and increases with the decrease of zinc powder diameter and the increase of solution velocity. Moreover, it can be derived by mass transfer correlations of Sherwood number:Sh=0.1069Re0.5Sc0.33, for 0.3<Re<6.展开更多

文摘Cadmium (Cd) is a toxic metal with high mobility from soil and known translocation into plants (Song et al., 2015).Because the main source of human exposure to Cd is from food consumption, there has been increased research examining Cd uptake in agricultural plants (Li et al., 2014;Rizwan et al., 2016;Song et al., 2015).
