Transfer of wastewater associated pharmaceuticals and personal care products to crop plants from biosolids treated soil

open access: yes, 2012
The plant uptake of emerging organic contaminants such as pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) is receiving increased attention. Biosolids from municipal wastewater treatment have been previously identified as a major source for PPCPs. Thus,

Fate of Zinc Oxide and Silver Nanoparticles in a Pilot Wastewater Treatment Plant and in Processed Biosolids

open access: yes, 2014
Chemical transformations of silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) and zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) during wastewater treatment and sludge treatment must be characterized to accurately assess the risks that these nanomaterials pose from land application of ...

Biosolids at the Farm Gate [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Approximately 15,000 tonnes of dry solids (t DS) of biosolids are spread onto agricultural land throughout Western Australia (WA) annually by a select number of farmers as a substitute to commercial inorganic fertiliser.

Nanomaterials in Biosolids Inhibit Nodulation, Shift Microbial Community Composition, and Result in Increased Metal Uptake Relative to Bulk/Dissolved Metals

open access: yes, 2015
We examined the effects of amending soil with biosolids produced from a pilot-scale wastewater treatment plant containing a mixture of metal-based engineered nanomaterials (ENMs) on the growth of Medicago truncatula, its symbiosis with Sinorhizobium ...

Environmental assessment and agronomic performance of biosolids-derived biochar in controlled environment studies

open access: yes
Increasing regulatory restrictions on traditional land application of biosolids (treated sewage sludge) in Australia has driven the need to explore alternative treatment technologies that render biosolids (BS) suitable for beneficial use while mitigating

Earthworms (Megascolecidae) in Biosolids‐Amended Soil

open access: yes, 2017
Biosolids can be a valuable fertilizer for agriculture and in ecological restoration, although there are concerns about contaminants. Earthworm activity, including vermicomposting of biosolids, may influence the efficacy of their use. We investigated how

Excel worksheet for calculating agronomic biosolids application rates

open access: yes
The worksheet is designed to show a municipal biosolids manager how many acres are needed for land application of biosolids at an agronomic rate, based on crop nitrogen (N) requirements.

Agronomic biosolids application rates for dryland wheat across a range of northwest climate zones

open access: yes
Predicting agronomic rates is important to derive optimum economic and environmental benefits from biosolids fertilizer applications. We conducted this research to 1) evaluate dryland wheat response to biosolids applications over a range of climate ...
