Abstract:In order to explore the feasibility of wood vinegar in remediation of heavy metal contaminated farmland soil, a field plot experiment was conducted to study the effects of wood vinegar application on the growth of three local wheat varieties in Cd contaminated farmland, the Cd accumulation and translocation in wheat, and the content and form of Cd in rhizosphere soil. The results showed that the application of wood vinegar significantly increased the biomass of wheat grains and straw (p<0.05), and the Cd distribution coefficients of straw increased from 8.91% to 20.44%, while that of grains and roots decreased from 13.93% to 35.93% and 4.76% to 18.76%, respectively. The bioaccumulation factor of Cd in straw and roots of different wheat varieties all significantly increased, showing that variety C > variety A > variety B. The translocation factor of Cd in root-straw (TFroot-straw) was significantly increased in all wheat varieties, while the translocation coefficients of Cd in straw-grain (TFstraw-grain) was significantly decreased except variety C. Compared with before planting, the Cd content in rhizosphere soil of each variety of wheat decreased by 0.26, 0.23 and 0.21 mg/kg, respectively, and the Cd content in rhizosphere soil treated with wood vinegar decreased by 13.11 %~16.97 %. The forms of Cd in soil were significantly different before and after wheat planting, the exchangeable state and Fe-Mn oxide bound state were significantly increased (p<0.05), while the organic matter bound state and residual state were significantly decreased (p<0.05). Therefore, the application of wood vinegar significantly increased the biomass of each part of wheat, and had no significant impact on the content of Cd in grains, and increased the translocation factor of root to straw, which contributed to the accumulation of Cd in wheat straw, but did not increase the risk of wheat grain exceeding the standard, the Cd could be gradually removed from farmland soil through straw leaving.
