Biodegradability of polyethylene mulch film by Bacillus paramycoides

Chemosphere, 2023
Discarded polyethylene (PE) mulch film has led to persistent agricultural pollution. Biodegradation of plastic waste is considered as a promising solution that can potentially overcome environmental and economic problems. In this study, a novel bacterium (Bacillus paramycoides) was isolated from a waste mulch recycling plant and showed an extraordinary

A method for the treatment of black tea waste: Converting it into liquid mulching film and solid mulching film

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, 2022
AbstractThis work was aim to prepare biodegradable mulching film from biomass materials to reduce the environmental pollution caused by plastics. Black tea waste was divided into two parts and combined with degradable materials such as polyvinyl alcohol and cellulose to prepare two degradable mulching films: liquid mulching film (LMF) and solid ...

Conservation tillage or plastic film mulching? A comprehensive global meta-analysis based on maize yield and nitrogen use efficiency.

Science of the Total Environment, 2022
Rain-fed agriculture is an important part of the global agriculture system and plays a vital role in ensuring food security. Conservation tillage (CT) is widely used in USA maize cultivation in the Mid-west Corn Belt. Meanwhile, Chinese farmers' adoption

Accumulation of microplastics in greenhouse soil after long-term plastic film mulching in Beijing, China.

Science of the Total Environment, 2022
Intensive use of plastic film and organic fertilizer in the greenhouse has resulted in microplastic contamination of soil. However, microplastic pollution in different types of greenhouses has not been reported so far.

Ridge-furrow film mulching improves water and nitrogen use efficiencies under reduced irrigation and nitrogen applications in wheat field

Field crops research (Print), 2021
Ridge–furrow film mulching (RF) is an effective planting pattern to harvest rainwater, reduce evaporation, increase root-zone soil moisture and improve crop yield in arid regions of northwest China.

Variations in soil aggregate distribution and associated organic carbon and nitrogen fractions in long-term continuous vegetable rotation soil by nitrogen fertilization and plastic film mulching.

Science of the Total Environment, 2022
Small changes in soil aggregates-associated organic carbon (OC) can induce huge fluctuations in greenhouse gas emissions. However, there is a knowledge gap on the responses to nitrogen (N) fertilization under plastic film mulching, especially in long ...

An alternative to polyethylene film mulch: Field evaluation of biodegradable film mulch on winter potato in the south of China

Agronomy Journal, 2020
AbstractPolyethylene (PE) film mulching (PM) contributes to the increase of crop yields and farmer incomes at the expense of environment. We performed a 2‐yr field experiment to evaluate the possibility of replacement of PM with poly(butylene‐adipate‐co‐terephthalate)‐based biodegradable film mulching (BM) for winter potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) in ...

Film mulching, residue retention and N fertilization affect ammonia volatilization through soil labile N and C pools

, 2021
Ammonia (NH3) volatilization was a vital process of the nitrogen cycle in agricultural ecosystems and closely related to the atmospheric environment quality. To investigate the tillage practice and N fertilization impact on the soil labile C, N pools and

Studies on the Property Changes of Environmental Degradation Mulching Film and Polyethylene Mulching Film in Water Environment

Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2012
This paper studied the property changes of environmental degradation mulching film and polyethylene mulching film in water environment. The XRD (X-ray diffraction) cures showed that the diffraction angles of environmental degradation mulching film were not changed but intensities and area of diffraction peaks increased after immersion for 60 days ...

The persistently breaking trade-offs of three-decade plastic film mulching: Microplastic pollution, soil degradation and reduced cotton yield.

Journal of Hazardous Materials, 2022
Plastic mulching has been extensively used for near 40 years in China because of the commonly recognized trade-offs between economic profit and adverse impacts. Whether the trade-offs is well kept after decades of mulching usage is poorly understood.
