Abstract The protection of our
environment is a common task. All pollution that expose our soils, plants or
in the narrower and wider sense environment will appear sooner or later in the food chain and in
human beings who are at the top
of the food-chain pyramid. The aim of our work is to give a brief overview
about the effects of some industrial wastes on the physiological parameters
of plants. Compost, black soot, sewage sludge and lime sludge dust was
examined. Sunflower seeds were used in the experiments. The filtrates of
examined materials were added to the nutrient solution in different
quantities because of different solubility.The
contents of sample elements and uptake of the element were measured by ICP,
the relative chlorophyll contents by SPAD 502. Disadvantageous and
advantageous physiological effects of compost, black soot, sewage sludge and
lime sludge were proved. Larger concentrations of aluminium
were measured in the roots than in the shoots. The concentrations of chrome
were below the control value in the shoots when black soot, compost, lime
sludge and sewage sludge were added to the nutrient solution. The
concentrations of zinc, phosphorous, magnesium and copper were very low when
black soot was used, and it was lower than the control. The dry matter of
shoots increased when compost and sewage sludge was used, but the growth of
roots remained under the control level. Key
words Compost, Black soot, Sewage
sludge, Soil amendments |
