Shallow tube well (STW) water, often contaminated with arsenic (As), is used extensively in Bangladesh for irrigating rice fields in the dry season, leading to potential As accumulation in soils. In the current study the consequences of arsenic from irrigation water and direct surface (0–15 cm) soil application were studied under field conditions with wetland rice culture over 2 years. Twenty PVC cylinders (30-cm length and 30-cm diameter) were installed in field plots to evaluate the mobility and vertical distribution of soil As, As mass balance, and the resulting influences on rice yield and plant-As concentration in Boro (dry season) and transplanted (T.) Aman (wet season) rice over the 2-year growth cycle. Treatments included irrigation-water As concentrations of 0, 1 and 2 mg L?1 (Boro season only) and soil-As concentrations of 10 and 20 mg kg?1. Following the 2-year cropping sequence the major portion (39.3–47.6%) of the applied arsenic was retained within the rooting zone at 0–15 cm depth, with 14.7–19.5% of the total applied As at the 5–10 cm and 10–15 cm soil depths compared to 1.3–3.6% at the 35–40 cm soil depth. These results indicate the relatively low mobility of applied As and the likely continued detrimental accumulation of As within the rooting zone. Arsenic addition in either irrigation water or as soil-applied As resulted in yield reductions from 21 to 74 % in Boro rice and 8 to 80 % in T. Aman rice, the latter indicating the strong residual effect of As on subsequent crops. The As concentrations in rice grain (0.22 to 0.81 µg g?1), straw (2.64 to 12.52 µg g?1) and husk (1.20 to 2.48 µg g?1) increased with increasing addition of As. These results indicate the detrimental impacts of continued long-term irrigation with As-contaminated water on agricultural sustainability, food security and food quality in Bangladesh. A critical need exists for the development of crop and water management strategies to minimize potential As hazard in wetland rice production. 相似文献

Arsenic uptake and accumulation in rice (Oryza sativa L.) irrigated with contaminated water 总被引:3,自引:2,他引:1
Long-term use of arsenic contaminated groundwater to irrigate crops, especially paddy rice (Oryza sativaL.) has resulted in elevated soil arsenic levels in Bangladesh. There is, therefore, concern regarding accumulation of arsenic in rice grown on these soils. A greenhouse pot experiment was conducted to evaluate the impact of arsenic-contaminated irrigation water on the growth and uptake of arsenic into rice grain, husk, straw and root. There were altogether 10 treatments which were a combination of five arsenate irrigation water concentrations (0–8 mg As l–1) and two soil phosphate amendments. Use of arsenate containing irrigation water reduced plant height, decreased rice yield and affected development of root growth. Arsenic concentrations in all plant parts increased with increasing arsenate concentration in irrigation water. However, arsenic concentration in rice grain did not exceed the maximum permissible limit of 1.0 mg As kg–1. Arsenic accumulation in rice straw at very high levels indicates that feeding cattle with such contaminated straw could be a direct threat for their health and also, indirectly, to human health via presumably contaminated bovine meat and milk. Phosphate application neither showed any significant difference in plant growth and development, nor in As concentrations in plant parts. 相似文献

The exposure of paddy fields to arsenic (As) through groundwater irrigation is a serious concern that may not only lead to As accumulation to unacceptable levels but also interfere with mineral nutrients in rice grains. In the present field study, profiling of the mineral nutrients (iron (Fe), phosphorous, zinc, and selenium (Se)) was done in various rice genotypes with respect to As accumulation. A significant genotypic variation was observed in elemental retention on root Fe plaque and their accumulation in various plant parts including grains, specific As uptake (29–167 mg kg?1 dw), as well as As transfer factor (4–45%). Grains retained the least level of As (0.7–3%) with inorganic As species being the dominant forms, while organic As species, viz., dimethylarsinic acid and monomethylarsonic acid, were non-detectable. In all tested varieties, the level of Se was low (0.05–0.12 mg kg?1 dw), whereas that of As was high (0.4–1.68 mg kg?1 dw), considering their safe/recommended daily intake limits, which may not warrant their human consumption. Hence, their utilization may increase the risk of arsenicosis, when grown in As-contaminated areas. 相似文献

AbstractSamples of rhizosphere soil, groundwater used for drip irrigation, and mature cotton plants were collected from farms at Kuitun, Xinjiang and analyzed for their arsenic (As) levels to account for the influx and efflux of arsenic in the field. The pH value and the soil-grain-size distribution were found to correlate with the different levels of arsenic accumulated by cotton plants and arable soil layers. The principal component analysis (PCA) indicates that the arsenic level in soil is influenced by the silt content and the arsenic level in groundwater, while the arsenic level in plant roots is affected mainly by the silt content and the arsenic level in soil. As estimated, about 64.6?±?2.7?μg of arsenic was extracted from soil by one cotton plant, and more than 44% of it was stored in husks. About 0.8-2.6 mg As/(m2 yr) was extracted by plants from soil according to the average dry weight of the plant and the field planting density, while 2.4–28.0?mg As/(m2 yr) entered the soil based on the irrigated groundwater volume and the arsenic level in groundwater. Taking account of the cotton residues left after harvest, up to 85.8% of arsenic in the plants returned to the soil. After calculation, about 0.7–2.2?mg As/(m2 yr) returned to the soil, and thus the actual net arsenic input to the soil could reach 2.3–27.6?mg As/(m2 yr). Because of an obvious rise of the soil arsenic level in Kuitun, Xinjiang, and certain preventive measures should be taken to prevent the propagation of arsenic in the agricultural field. 相似文献

Methane and nitrous oxide emissions from direct-seeded and seedling-transplanted rice paddies in southeast China 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Background and aims
The rice production is experiencing a shift from conventionally seedling-transplanted (TPR) to direct-seeded (DSR) cropping systems in Southeast Asia. Besides the difference in rice crop establishment, water regime is typically characterized as water-saving moist irrigation for DSR and flooding-midseason drainage-reflooding and moist irrigation for TPR fields, respectively. A field experiment was conducted to quantify methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from the DSR and TPR rice paddies in southeast China.Methods
Seasonal measurements of CH4 and N2O fluxes from the DSR and TPR plots were simultaneously taken by static chamber-GC technique.Results
Seasonal fluxes of CH4 averaged 1.58 mg m?2 h?1 and 1.02 mg m?2 h?1 across treatments in TPR and DSR rice paddies, respectively. Compared with TPR cropping systems, seasonal N2O emissions from DSR cropping systems were increased by 49 % and 46 % for the plots with or without N application, respectively. The emission factors of N2O were estimated to be 0.45 % and 0.69 % of N application, with a background emission of 0.65 and 0.95 kg N2O-N ha?1 under the TPR and DSR cropping regimes, respectively. Rice biomass and grain yield were significantly greater in the DSR than in the TPR cropping systems. The net global warming potential (GWP) of CH4 and N2O emissions were comparable between the two cropping systems, while the greenhouse gas intensity (GHGI) was significantly lower in the DSR than in the TPR cropping systems.Conclusions
Higher grain yield, comparable GWP, and lower GHGI suggest that the DSR instead of conventional TPR rice cropping regime would weaken the radiative forcing of rice production in terms of per unit of rice grain yield in China, and DSR rice cropping regime could be a promising rice development alternative in mainland China. 相似文献6.
Drinking water contaminated with arsenic poses serious threat to the human health. The present study was aimed for quality assessment of the groundwater of Khairpur Mir's in respect with arsenic and other elemental contamination like Fe, Cu, Co, and Ni. The presence of the trace elements in groundwater from different sources in the study area was measured by using atomic absorption spectroscopy. For arsenic analysis hydride generation technique (MHS-15) was used with detection limit of 0.02 µg l?1. Elevated level of arsenic was observed in most of the samples as compared to recommended value of World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines (10 µg l?1). However, levels of Fe, Cu, Co, and Ni in hand pump (HP) water samples was found in the range of 4–1610 µg l?1, 0–556 µg l?1, 0–230 µg l?1, and 0–700 µg l?1, respectively. Whereas in tube well (TW) water samples the observed values are 5–1620 µg l?1, 0–50 µg l?1, 4–110 µg l?1, and 0–360 µg l?1 for Fe, Cu, Co, and Ni, respectively. Significant difference was observed between TW and HP water samples. It was concluded that the level of arsenic found was very high up to 13 fold more than the WHO recommended limit in study area. While the levels of other elements was noted within the safe limit. 相似文献

The effects of arsenate, Fe2+, and phosphate on amount and composition of Fe-oxide plaque at the rice-root surface and on the yield and arsenic accumulation in rice (cv. BRRI dhan33) were studied in a replicated pot-culture experiment. Arsenic in the form of Na2HAsO4 was applied at concentrations of 0, 15 and 30 mg kg?1 in combination with P and/or Fe at 0 and 50 mg kg?1, from KH2PO4 and FeSO4, respectively. Root, grain and straw yields and their As, Fe and P concentrations were determined. The Fe-oxide plaque was extracted from the plant roots using dithionite-citrate-bicarbonate (DCB) and NH4-oxalate extractions. The addition of Fe2+ reduced the toxic effect of As in flooded-rice culture and resulted in reduced grain-As accumulation and increased grain yields. The effect of applied phosphate was the opposite, in that it resulted in higher As concentrations in both grain and straw and lower grain yields. The effects of both Fe and P can be explained based on their impacts on adsorption of As onto soil and rice-plaque Fe-oxides and the subsequent As solubility and availability for uptake by rice. These reactions have important implications to rice-crop management and the natural variability in soils and irrigation-water characteristics that might impact As uptake by rice. 相似文献

In order to evaluate the combined effects of drip irrigation and petroleum extraction activities on As contamination and distribution in local soils, a total of 141 soil and 30 groundwater (GW) samples from field sites drip-irrigated with GW in Kuitun, Xinjiang, China were collected and analyzed arsenic (As) levels. Soil As levels ranged from 6.74 to 23.10 mg·kg?1. For the field irrigated with As-loaded GW for 0.5-10 years, As levels in soils increased by 0.50-9.10 mg·kg?1 as compared with the control soils. As levels in all top-layer (0-10 cm in thickness) irrigated soils A (0-5 cm away from dripper) were found to be higher than those in top-layer irrigated soils B (5-10 cm away from dripper). It was estimated that As in agricultural soils increased by approximately 11~3789 g·yr?1·ha?1 under drip irrigating, most of which in top-layer soils covering the plant roots. The widely used drip irrigation system in Kuitun enhanced the ecological and human-health threats of As via affecting its spread into soils. Furthermore, the petroleum exploiting activity further promoted As levels in local soils. Within a distance of 10~1000 m away from petroleum exploiting sites, the soil As level decreases significantly with the distance. 相似文献

Aims
Two pot experiments in a “walk-in” growth chamber with controlled day and night temperatures were conducted to investigate the influence of elevated temperatures along with rice straw incorporation on methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions as well as rice yield.Methods
Three temperature regimes–29/25, 32/25, and 35/30 °C (Exp. I) and 29/22, 32/25, and 35/28 °C (Exp. II), representing daily maxima/minima were used in the study. Two amounts of rice straw (0 and 6 t ha?1) were applied with four replications in each temperature regime. CH4 and N2O emissions as well as soil redox potential (Eh) were monitored weekly throughout the rice-growing period.Results
Elevated temperatures increased CH4 emission rates, with a more pronounced effect from flowering to maturity. The increase in emissions was further enhanced by incorporation of rice straw. A decrease in soil Eh to <?100 mV and CH4 emissions was observed early in rice straw–incorporated pots while the soil without straw did not reach negative Eh levels (Exp. I) or showed a delayed decrease (Exp. II). Moreover, soil with high organic C (Exp. II) had higher CH4 emissions. In contrast to CH4 emissions, N2O emissions were negligible during the rice-growing season. The global warming potential (GWP) was highest at high temperature with rice straw incorporation compared with low temperature without rice straw. On the other hand, the high temperature significantly increased spikelet sterility and reduced grain yield (p?<?0.05).Conclusions
Elevated temperature increased GWP while decreased rice yield. This suggests that global warming may result in a double negative effect: higher emissions and lower yields. 相似文献10.

The health of millions is threatened by the use of groundwater contaminated with sediment-derived arsenic for drinking water and irrigation purposes in Southeast Asia. The microbial reduction of sorbed As(V) to the potentially more mobile As(III) has been implicated in release of arsenic into groundwater, but to date there have been few studies of the microorganisms that can mediate this transformation in aquifers. With the use of stable isotope probing of nucleic acids, we present evidence that the introduction of a proxy for organic matter (13C-labeled acetate) stimulated As(V) reduction in sediments collected from a Cambodian aquifer that hosts arsenic-rich groundwater. This was accompanied by an increase in the proportion of prokaryotes closely related to the dissimilatory As(V)-reducing bacteria Sulfurospirillum strain NP-4 and Desulfotomaculum auripigmentum. As(V) respiratory reductase genes (arrA) closely associated with those found in Sulfurospirillum barnesii and Geobacter uraniumreducens were also detected in active bacterial communities utilizing 13C-labeled acetate in microcosms. This study suggests a direct link between inputs of organic matter and the increased prevalence and activity of organisms which transform As(V) to the potentially more mobile and thus hazardous As(III) via dissimilatory As(V) reduction. 相似文献

High-arsenic groundwater in inland basins usually contains high concentrations of fluoride. In the present study, the effects of fluoride on arsenic uptake by Pteris vittata and on arsenic transformation in growth media were investigated under greenhouse conditions. After P. vittata was hydroponically exposed to 66.8 μM As (V) in the presence of 1.05 mM F? in the form of NaF, KF, or NaF+KF for 10 d, no visible toxicity symptoms were observed, and there were not significant differences in the dry biomass among the four treatments. The results showed that P. vittata tolerated F? concentrations as high as 1.05 mM but did not accumulate fluoride in their own tissues. Arsenic uptake was inhibited in the presence of 1.05 mM F?. However, in hydroponic batches with 60 μM As (III) or 65 μM As (V), it was found that 210.6 and 316.0 μM F? promoted arsenic uptake. As(III) was oxidized to As(V) in the growth media in the presence and absence of plants, and F? had no effect on the rate of As(III) transformation. These experiments demonstrated that P. vittata was a good candidate to remediate arsenic-contaminated groundwater in the presence of fluoride. Our results can be used to develop strategies to remediate As-F-contaminated water using P. vittata. 相似文献

Conservation agriculture for wheat-based cropping systems under gravity irrigation: increasing resilience through improved soil quality 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

A field experiment was conducted under furrow irrigation on a Vertisol in arid northwestern Mexico, to evaluate sustainable production alternatives for irrigated wheat systems. Treatments included: tillage (conventionally tilled raised beds where new beds are formed after disc ploughing before planting [CTB] and permanent raised beds [PB]) and irrigation regimes (full and reduced). Physical and chemical soil quality was compared among treatments. PB improved soil structure and direct infiltration, increased topsoil K concentrations (0–5 cm; 1.6 cmol kg?1 in PB vs. 1.0–1.1 cmol kg?1 in CTB) and reduced Na concentrations (0–5 cm; 1.3–1.4 cmol kg?1 in PB vs. 1.9–2.2 cmol kg?1 in CTB) compared to CTB. Crop growth dynamics were studied throughout the season with an optical handheld NDVI sensor. Crop growth was initially slower in PB compared to CTB, but this was compensated by increased crop growth in the later stages of the crop cycle which influenced final yield, especially under reduced irrigation. These results were reflected in the final grain yield: in the third year after conversion to PB, no difference in grain yield was found between tillage systems under full irrigation. However, under reduced irrigation the improved soil quality with PB resulted in a 19% and 26% increment in bread and durum wheat grain yields, respectively. As projected climatic scenarios forecast higher evapotranspiration, less reliable rainfall and increased drought, our results indicate that PB could contribute to maintaining and increasing wheat yields in a sustainable way. 相似文献

Rice straw as solid residues are biomass residue materials that are not optimally used by farmers in Punjab and potentially become environmental pollutant. A large amount of rice straw (17 million tons) is generated and left as much in combine harvested rice fields in Punjab, India. It is very difficult to manage such huge amount of rice straw thus, farmers resort to burning it which leads to greenhouse gas emissions like CO2 due to open field burning and loss of rich organic matter present in the soil. Further due to imposition of restrictions by the state government, the practice of burning rice straw has now become an offense. So farmers are looking for alternatives which are economically viable. Rice straw can be effectively used as bio energy as it has about the same heating value (15 kJ kg?1) as that of wood, half that of good quality coal and one third of oil. The operational conditions required to produce high-quality chopped rice straw briquettes have not been determined and this study determined the optimal moisture content, particle size, and binder ratio required to produce rice straw briquettes. The optimized conditions resulted in formation of high-density (1030.38–1159.22 kg m?3) briquettes with durability ranging from 71.9 to 92.3% with minimum power requirement for briquetting (36.60 kW), maximum calorific value of 15.61 MJ kg?1, and minimum ash content (16.34%).Total cost of making chopped rice straw briquettes was 0.041 USD per kg and 0.00281 USD per mega joule of energy. Cost of briquetting from chopped rice straw with 10 and 20% cotton stalks was 0.050 and 0.051 USD per kg, respectively, and 0.0033 USD per mega joule of energy. Also, the briquettes prepared from chopped rice straw with and without cotton stalk as a binder were economically viable. 相似文献

The efficacy of different concentrations of NaOH (0.25%, 0.50%, 0.75%, and 1.00%) for the pretreatment of rice straw in solid and powder state in enzymatic saccharification and fermentation for the production of bioethanol was evaluated. A greater amount of biomass was recovered through solid-state pretreatment (3.74 g) from 5 g of rice straw. The highest increase in the volume of rice straw powder as a result of swelling was observed with 1.00% NaOH pretreatment (48.07%), which was statistically identical to 0.75% NaOH pretreatment (32.31%). The surface of rice straw was disrupted by the 0.75% NaOH and 1.00% NaOH pretreated samples as observed using field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). In Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectra, absorbance of hydroxyl groups at 1,050 cm?1 due to the OH group of lignin was gradually decreased with the increase of NaOH concentration. The greatest amounts of glucose and ethanol were obtained in 1.00% NaOH solid-state pretreated and powder-state hydrolyzed samples (0.804 g g?1 and 0.379 g g?1, respectively), which was statistically similar to the use of 0.75% NaOH (0.763 g g?1 and 0.358 g g?1, respectively). Thus, solid-state pretreatment with 0.75% NaOH and powder-state hydrolysis appear to be suitable for fermentation and bioethanol production from rice straw. 相似文献

Aims
Effects of different soil amendments were investigated on methane (CH4) emission, soil quality parameters and rice productivity in irrigated paddy field of Bangladesh.Methods
The experiment was laid out in a randomized complete block design with five treatments and three replications. The experimental treatments were urea (220 kg ha?1) + rice straw compost (2 t ha?1) as a control, urea (170 kg ha?1) + rice straw compost (2 t ha?1) + silicate fertilizer, urea (170 kg ha?1) + sesbania biomass (2 t ha?1 ) + silicate fertilizer, urea (170 kg ha?1) + azolla biomass (2 t ha?1) + cyanobacterial mixture 15 kg ha?1 silicate fertilizer, urea (170 kg ha?1) + cattle manure compost (2 t ha?1) + silicate fertilizer.Results
The average of two growing seasons CH4 flux 132 kg ha?1 was recorded from the conventional urea (220 kg ha?1) with rice straw compost incorporated field plot followed by 126.7 (4 % reduction), 130.7 (1.5 % reduction), 116 (12 % reduction) and 126 (5 % reduction) kg CH4 flux ha?1 respectively, with rice straw compost, sesbania biomass, azolla anabaena and cattle manure compost in combination urea and silicate fertilizer applied plots. Rice grain yield was increased by 15 % and 10 % over the control (4.95 Mg ha?1) with silicate plus composted cattle manure and silicate plus azolla anabaena, respectively. Soil quality parameters such as soil organic carbon, total nitrogen, microbial biomass carbon, soil redox status and cations exchange capacity were improved with the added organic materials and azolla biofertilizer amendments with silicate slag and optimum urea application (170 kg ha?1) in paddy field.Conclusion
Integrated application of silicate fertilizer, well composted organic manures and azolla biofertilizer could be an effective strategy to minimize the use of conventional urea fertilizer, reducing CH4 emissions, improving soil quality parameters and increasing rice productivity in subtropical countries like Bangladesh. 相似文献16.
Combined Application of Rice Straw and Fungus Penicillium Chrysogenum to Remediate Heavy-Metal-Contaminated Soil 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

The search for cheap and environmentally friendly materials is essential for remediation of heavy-metal-contaminated agricultural soils. A pot experiment was undertaken to evaluate the application of rice straw and filamentous fungus Penicillium chrysogenum (P. chrysogenum) on the fractionation of copper (Cu) and cadmium (Cd), soil microbial properties, and Cu and Cd uptake by romaine lettuce (Lactuca sativa) in a contaminated agricultural soil. Rice straw was applied at three rates (0, 7.8, and 11.7 g kg?1 soil), and in combinations with P. chrysogenum (1.0 × 106 spores g?1 soil). It was found that the combined treatment of rice straw and P. chrysogenum significantly decreased the acid-extractable Cu and Cd by 15.4–25.1% and 20.2–27.3%, and increased the oxidizable Cu and Cd by 16.1–18.0% and 72.1–98.4%, respectively. Soil microbial biomass and fresh weight of lettuce were also remarkably enhanced after rice straw plus P. chrysogenum addition. Rice straw combined with P. chrysogenum was more effective in reducing Cu and Cd uptake by lettuce than rice straw alone. The joint application of rice straw and P. chrysogenum remarkably reduced Cu and Cd concentrations in lettuce shoots by 13.6–21.9% and 32.9–41.7%, respectively. These results indicate that the combined application of P. chrysogenum and rice straw is a promising method to alleviate the bioavailability of metals, and to improve soil microbial properties and plant yield in heavy-metal-polluted agricultural soils. 相似文献

A two years field study was conducted to explain the effect of Zn and lime application on morphological characteristics, rice yield and yield components, and more broadly, grains bio-fortification (Zn and protein content (CP), and amino acid profiles). The lime and Zn interaction increased grains and straw yield more than two times (6.64 ton ha?1) compared to the control (3.20 ton ha?1). The maximum increase in the Zn content of grain, white rice and bran was obtained about 30% in whole grain, 42% in bran and 56% in white rice. Furthermore, CP increased by about 8% in bran, 12.3% in whole grain, and 27% in white rice compared to control. Also, the Zn and lime application and their interaction were significantly increased the amino acids, especially essential parts. 相似文献

The objectives of the present study were to investigate the mitigation of lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd), and arsenic (As) in a multi-metal contaminated soil and their accumulation in rice plants (Oryza sativa L., cv II You 93) using a combined amendment (CMF, calcium carbonate + metakaolin + fused calcium–magnesium phosphate fertilizer). The results showed that application of CMF was effective in reducing the acid-extractable concentrations of soil Pb and Cd. The exchangeable concentrations of soil As showed an initial decrease followed by a gradual increase. The application of 0.2% CMF notably reduced the concentrations of Pb, Cd, and As in brown rice by 46.5%, 43.6%, and 32.0%, respectively. The concentration of As in brown rice was 0.179 mg kg?1 at 0.2% CMF, which met the maximum levels of contaminants in foods of China (MLs) (the ML of Pb, Cd, and As is 0.2 mg kg?1 according to the China national standard GB 2762-2012). At 1.6% CMF, the concentrations of Pb and Cd in brown rice were 0.002 and 0.185 mg kg?1, respectively, i.e., reductions of 99.6% and 74.1%, and these values also fell within the MLs. 相似文献

Pot and field experiments were conducted to investigate the effects of soil amendments (cow manure, rice straw, zeolite, dicalcium phosphate) on the growth and metal uptake (Cd, Zn) of maize (Zea mays) grown in Cd/Zn contaminated soil. The addition of cow manure and rice straw significantly increased the dry biomass, shoot and root length, and grain yield of maize when compared with the control. In pot study, cow manure, rice straw, and dicalcium phosphate all proved effective in reducing Cd and Zn concentrations in shoots and roots. Cd and Zn concentrations in the grains of maize grown in field study plots with cow manure and dicalcium phosphate amendments to highly contaminated soil (Cd 36.5 mg kg?1 and Zn 1520.8 mg kg?1) conformed to acceptable standards for animal feed. Additionally both cow manure and dicalcium phosphate amendments resulted in the significant decrease of Cd and Zn concentrations in shoots of maize. 相似文献

Increasing demands of groundwater in petroleum-recovering regions could elevate the level and mobility of arsenic in groundwater as a result of the enhanced dissolution of arsenic-bearing iron or manganese oxide due to the accelerated sulfate reduction by microorganisms in a reductive environment. To substantiate this possibility, groundwater samples were collected from 220 water wells in the nearby petroleum wells in Kuitun. Dissolved arsenic, iron, manganese, and sulfate levels and pH in groundwater samples were analyzed. The dissolved arsenic levels in groundwater varied from <2.3 to 789.4 μg·L?1, in which approximately 96.4% of the measured values exceeded the allowed limits of the World Health Organization. An inverse relation existed between dissolved arsenic and sulfate levels. Most of the high arsenic-level samples (>300 μg·L?1) were found in wells at close proximity to petroleum wells where a high iron or manganese level was also detected. The oil-exploring activity in the study region seemed to have enhanced the microbial reduction of sulfate in underground environment and hence the level of arsenic in groundwater. The microbial sulfate reduction coupled with the reduction of arsenic-bearing iron oxides in the groundwater environment may explain the spatial heterogeneity of the arsenic level in groundwater. 相似文献
