ABSTRACT
Cadmium (Cd) contamination in agricultural soil has been an elevated concern due to the high health risks associated with the transfer through the soil-food chain, particularly in the case of rice. Recently, there has numerous researches on the use of nanoparticle-loaded materials for heavy metal-polluted soil remediation, resulting in favorable outcomes. However, there has been limited research focus on the field-scale application and recovery. This study was aimed to validate the Cd reduction effect of the nano-FeS loaded lignin hydrogel composites (FHC) in mildly polluted paddies, and to propose a field-scale application method. Hence, a multi-site field experiment was conducted in southern China. After the application for 94-103 days, the FHC exhibited a high integrity and elasticity, with a recovery rate of 91.90%. The single-round remediation led to decreases of 0.42-31.72% in soil Cd content and 1.52-49.11% in grain Cd content. Additionally, this remediation technique did not adversely impact rice production. Consequently, applying FHC in the field was demonstrated to be an innovative, efficient, and promising remediation technology. Simultaneously, a strategy was proposed for reducing Cd levels while cultivating rice in mildly polluted fields using the FHC.
