土壤中难降解有机污染物锁定机理研究进展

有机污染物进入土壤后,随着与土壤接触时间的延长,被锁定在土壤中,生物可利用性下降.锁定可能导致过高估计难降解有机污染物的暴露风险,影响修复技术的实施.锁定发生的内在机制主要源于粘土矿物、有机质及非水相液体的不可逆吸附和微孔束缚,而影响土壤难降解有机污染物锁定的关键因素包括土壤物理化学性质和环境条件(湿度、温度、pH等).基于此,进一步阐明了目前土壤中难降解有机污染物锁定机理研究需要解决的问题,并对未来的发展趋势进行了展望.     

陆地生态系统中水溶性有机物动态及其环境学意义

水溶性有机物(DOM)是陆地生态系统中最活跃的有机碳库,也是土壤圈层与相关圈层进行物质与能量交换的重要表现形式,它对重金属、养分元素和有机污染物的活化、迁移与生态毒性有较大影响,在农业土壤溶液中DOM浓度通常在10～80mgC·L^-1,湿地土壤中多数在25～50mgC·L^-1,与森林土壤剖面淋滤水中的DOM相近,但在某些微域土壤环境(如根际和有机肥施用点附近)中DOM浓度可高达200～1000mgC·L^-1,不同来源的DOM在土壤中的迁移性与降解性明显不同,含低分子量组分或亲水性组分较多的DOM不易被土壤吸持而易被微生物降解,pH值相对较高的土壤(如石灰性土壤)对DOM吸附较弱,但pH较低和含有大量氧化物的土壤(如红壤、赤红壤和砖红壤等)则对DOM的吸附较强,施用石灰、土壤淹水或干湿交替、温度升高等有利于土壤保持较高的DOM浓度,由于DOM-金属配合物的形成,DOM能明显促进土壤重金属活化和向下迁移,而且DOM中低分子量或亲水性组分所占比例越低活化作用越强,同样地,由于DOM具有两亲性质,也能明显提高疏水性有机污染物(如农药和持久难降解有机污染物)的水溶性,增加其对环境污染的风险,特别是含疏水性组分越多的DOM这种作用越强．可以认为,继续加强有关DOM在陆地生态系统中产生与消长规律,特别是DOM及其与污染物的配合物从陆地生态系统向水体迁移的机理及其通量的研究,对合理预测污染物的环境行为和科学地进行环境风险评估有重要意义。

Plant--rhizosphere-microflora association during phytoremediation of PAH-contaminated soil

The capability of plants to promote the microbial degradation of pollutants in rhizosphere soil is a principal mechanism of phytoremediation of PAH-contaminated soil. The formation of a specific rhizosphere microbocenosis with a high degradative potential toward contaminants is largely determined by plant species. The comparative PAH-degradation in unplanted soil and in soil planted with reed (Phragmites australis) and alfalfa (Medicago sativa) was studied in pot experiments during 2 years. Both alfalfa and reed successfully remediated contaminated soil by degrading 74.5 and 68.7% of PAHs, respectively. The study of the rhizosphere, rhizoplane, and unplanted-soil microflora in experimental pots showed that alfalfa stimulated the rhizosphere microflora of PAH-contaminated soil more effectively than did reed. Alfalfa clearly enhanced both the total number of microorganisms (1.3 times, according to fluorescence microscopy data) and the rate of the PAH-degrading population (almost seven times, according to plate counting). The degradative potential of its rhizosphere microflora toward PAHs was higher than the degradative activity of the reed rhizosphere. This study provides relevant information for the successful application of alfalfa to phytoremediate PAH-contaminated soil.     

Detection and quantification of degradative genes in soils contaminated by toluene

Abstract: A method based on the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was developed for a rapid and specific detection of toluene degradative genes in soil. The xylE gene coding for catechol 2,3-dioxygenase was chosen as a target gene. The detection threshold was evaluated in microcosms using a sterilized standard soil inoculated with various amounts of a degradative strain of Pseudomonas putida (mX). The extracted DNA was used as a template to amplify the xylE gene. PCR followed by hybridization with an internal probe allowed us to detect 10² bacteria per g of soil. In polluted soils, quantification of target DNA by competitive PCR was compared with enumeration of degradative microflora. This molecular method appeared to be rapid, sensitive and more suitable than the microbiological approach to estimate the biodegradative potential of a polluted soil.     

Degradation of 2,4,6-trichlorophenol by a specialized organism and by indigenous soil microflora: bioaugmentation and self-remediability for soil restoration

A selected mixed culture and a strain of Alcaligenes eutrophus TCP were able to totally degrade 2,4,6-TCP with stoichiometric release of Cl⁻. In cultures of Alc. eutrophus TCP, a dioxygenated dichlorinated metabolite was detected after 48 h of incubation. Experiments conducted with soil microcosms gave evidence that : the degradative process had a biotic nature and was accompanied by microbial growth ; the soil used presented an intrinsic degradative capacity versus 2,4,6-TCP ; the specialized organism used as inoculum was effective in degrading 2,4,6-TCP in a short time. These results could be utilized for the adoption of appropriate remediation techniques for contaminated soil.     

Rhizosphere microflora of plants used for the phytoremediation of bitumen-contaminated soil

The microbial communities and their degradative potential in rhizospheres of alfalfa (Medicago sativa) and reed (Phragmites australis) and in unplanted soil in response to bitumen contamination of soil were studied in pot experiments. According to the results of fluorescence microscopy, over a period of 27 months, bitumen contamination of soil reduced the total number of microorganisms more significantly (by 75%) in unplanted than in rhizosphere soil (by 42% and 7% for reed and alfalfa, respectively) and had various effects on some important physiological groups of microorganisms such as actinomycetes as well as nitrogen-fixing, nitrifying, denitrifying, ammonifying, phosphate-solubilizing, sulphur-oxidizing, cellulolytic and hydrocarbon-degrading microorganisms. The changes in the physiological structure of the microbial community under bitumen contamination were found to hinge on not merely the presence of plants but also their type. It was noted that the rhizosphere microflora of alfalfa was less inhibited by hydrocarbon pollution and had a higher degradative potential than the rhizosphere microflora of reed.     

Diglycosyl phenol phthiocerol diester of Mycobacterium leprae

A diglycosyl phenol phthiocerol diester that had not been previously detected was isolated from M. leprae-infected armadillo tissues. Spectroscopy methods allowed the elucidation of its structure. The diglycoside was a 2,3-di-O-methylrhamnopyranosyl (alpha 1----2)3-O-methylrhamnopyranosyl (alpha 1-linked to the phenolic hydroxyl of phthiocerol dimycocerosates). It differs from the major phenolic glycolipid (PGL I) only by the absence of the terminal 3,6-di-O-methylglucopyranosyl unit. The diglycoside could be an intermediate in the synthesis of the latter antigen or a degradative product in the host detoxification process.     

Biodegradation of explosives by transgenic plants expressing pentaerythritol tetranitrate reductase.

Plants offer many advantages over bacteria as agents for bioremediation; however, they typically lack the degradative capabilities of specially selected bacterial strains. Transgenic plants expressing microbial degradative enzymes could combine the advantages of both systems. To investigate this possibility in the context of bioremediation of explosive residues, we generated transgenic tobacco plants expressing pentaerythritol tetranitrate reductase, an enzyme derived from an explosive-degrading bacterium that enables degradation of nitrate ester and nitroaromatic explosives. Seeds from transgenic plants were able to germinate and grow in the presence of 1 mM glycerol trinitrate (GTN) or 0.05 mM trinitrotoluene, at concentrations that inhibited germination and growth of wild-type seeds. Transgenic seedlings grown in liquid medium with 1 mM GTN showed more rapid and complete denitration of GTN than wild-type seedlings. This example suggests that transgenic plants expressing microbial degradative genes may provide a generally applicable strategy for bioremediation of organic pollutants in soil.

The Detoxification of Heavy Metals in the Phosphate Tailing-contaminated Soil through Sequential Microbial Pretreatment and Electrokinetic Remediation

In this paper, the heavy metals (HMs) in the phosphate tailing-contaminated soil were detoxified using the microbial pretreatment in combination with electrokinetic remediation (EKR).. This study provides compelling evidence that the sequential usage of the bioleaching and electrokinetics is superior to the individual method for the detoxification of Pb, Cu, Zn, Cd, and As from the contaminated soil. In the sequential system, the detoxification efficiency of Zn was the highest and that of As was the lowest. Except the element As, the detoxification efficiencies of HMs in the sequential system were generally higher than that using the single biological treatment and EKR technique. Bioleaching, generation of the passivation, and migration direction of the ions are concluded as the factors attributable to the final results; and, the initial increase in the inoculation doping of Thiobacillus ferrooxidans considered has no obvious impact on improving the final detoxification efficiency rates.

Plasmid-assisted morpholine degradation by Pseudomonas fluorescens CAS 102

A fast-growing Pseudomonas fluorescens CAS102, isolated by enrichment technique from polluted soil, effectively utilized morpholine as the energy source. The strain was able to grow in high concentrations of morpholine but accumulation of ammonia inhibited its growth and complete mineralization. The molar conversion ratio of morpholine to ammonia was 1:0.82. The organism harboured a single, multiple antibiotic- and heavy metal-resistance 140kb plasmid which was resistant to curing. Transformation studies showed that the morpholine degradative phenotype was expressed only in Pseudomonas putida and not in Escherichia coli. Growth studies on different degradative intermediates of morpholine suggested that plasmid-encoded genes were involved in the heterocyclic ring cleavage and the remaining reactions were mediated by chromosomal genes.
