Abstract: |
In the present study, the effects of biochar on the soil properties and adsorption-degradation of clothianidin in black soil were explored. The biochar was obtained by pyrolyzing maize straw and pig manure at 300, 500, and 700℃. The results indicated that the pH, available P, and organic carbon of the biochar-soil mixtures were all significantly increased, while H/C decreased. The Freundlich isotherm was suitable for describing the clothianidin adsorption to soil and biochar-soil mixtures. Biochar addition significantly increased the adsorption of clothianidin, with a stronger effect at higher pyrolyzing temperature(PT). Biochar generally promoted an increase in the degradation rate of clothianidin in biochar-soil mixtures. The biochar amendments obtained at a high-PT inhabited the biodegradation of clothianidin, whilst the low-PT biochar promoted the biodegradation of clothianidin. Therefore, the type and properties of biochar should be considered during soil pesticide remediation. |
