Plant-Microorganism Combined Remediation for Sediments Contaminated with Heavy Metals
PROGRESS IN ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING, PTS 1-4(2013)
Abstract
In order to investigate the effects of four heavy metal tolerant microorganisms, Staphylococcus pasteuri (X1), Agrobacterium tumefaciens (X2), Penicillium chrysogenum (Z1) and Paecilomyces lavender (Z2), on heavy metals uptake by the heavy metal tolerance plant-maize and the cadmium hyperaccumulator plant-Beta vulgaris var. cicla L., a pot experiment with sediments was conducted. Through comparing the overall situations of four microorganisms' role in enhancing maize and Beta vulgaris var. cicla L. to gather cadmium, lead, copper and zinc, plant biomasses, and enrichment characteristics, the combination of bacterium X2, fungus Z2 and these two plants can effectively repair these four heavy metals in sediments.
