Abstract

Metallophytes are group of plants that can thrive on metal-rich substrate. These plants have potential in various green technologies. However, it is a must to first identify plants that can absorb heavy metals and tolerate the high concentration in their tissues. This study assessed the ability of plants thriving in a Cu-Au mined areas to uptake copper (Cu), and arsenic (As). The Cu and As content of the dried leaves, root tissues and soils were quantified using Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer (AAS), and their bioaccumulation coefficient (BAC) were computed. Three species, Pityrogramma calomelanos, Cynodon dactylon and Nephrolepis biserrata, showed metal accumulation in the plant tissues. The three species have accumulation of Cu in the root and the estimated bioconcentration factor (BCF) is more than 1.0 which indicates the ability of these species to tolerate for said the metal hence is a good candidate for phytostabilization of polluted soils. Noteworthy was the accumulation of As in the shoot of the three species despite of the low soil As (<0.01 µg/g). Nephrolepis biserrata had the highest arsenic bioaccumulation factor of 30.91 followed by Cynodon dactylon (11.01) then Pityrogramma calomelanos (8.78) which make them potential species for clean-up of As through phytoextraction. Moreover, this study added C. dactylon as tolerant of arsenic in mined-out area in the Philippines.

Abstract

Bajo starfruit is a wild plant that commonly grows in nickel mining areas and it is known to have the ability to take up Ni metal from the soil, even though its Ni uptake ability is still relatively low. The objective of this study was to explore the effect of the application of citric acid and NPK fertilizer on the ability of Bajo starfruit plant in phytoextraction of Ni from post nickel mining land. Citric acid as a ligand is expected to enhance the availability of Ni in the soil so that Ni uptake by plants increases, while NPK fertilizer is expected to enhance crop biomass production. The treatments tested were combinations of four doses of citric acid (0, 1, 2 and 3 g of citric acid/kg of soil) with two doses of NPK fertilizer (0, and 1.33 g/kg of soil). Eight treatments were arranged in a factorial randomized block design with four replications. The results showed that the application of NPK fertilizer without citric acid increased the number of leaves and dry weight of plants. After the growth of Bajo starfruit for 25 weeks, the application of 3 g citric acid/kg of soil without application of NPK fertilizer reduced the total soil Ni from 8926 ppm to 2400 ppm i.e.73.11%.  Application of 2 g citric acid/kg of soil and 1.33 g NPK fertilizer/kg of soil resulted in Ni uptake by 118.18 mg/plant or increased by 38.61% compared to control. Application of 2 g citric acid/kg of soil without application of NPK fertilizer increased the BCF value of Bajo starfruit for nickel from 0.032 (control) to 0.035. However, treatments without the application of citric acid and fertilizer resulted in a higher TF value (13.9).

Abstract

Casuarina junghuhniana or mountain ru, she oak or cemara is a species from Indonesia which grows in the highland area at an altitude between 2000 - 3000 m above sea level (asl). One of the highland area in Eastern Java (Jawa Timur) of Indonesia is Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park (TNBTS). The study site was on the Tengger Sea of Sands, Eastern Java, Indonesia where it is affected by volcanic activity. This tree, from some references, has not been well studied yet although it has been reported as a tree native to Indonesia. The lack of the study poses problems when there is a program related to planting the tree on a certain location in TNBTS for rehabilitation purposes. This study attempted to construct a Structural Equation Model that mapped some factors observed in the study site related to C. junghuhniana population. Explored factors for their relationship with each other included the number of male and female individuals, growth-related indicators, and environmental factors consisting of altitude and the tree population. Formative factors which consist of parameters related to growth, environmental factors and factor associated with the diffusion of new individuals, may contribute to population growth while population growth was the opposite. The individual growth might not significantly contribute to the population of C. junghuhniana; instead, the population growth was affected by the tree individuals. Generative reproduction contributed the least to the dispersal as it may rely more on vegetative reproduction by adventitious shoots from roots.

Abstract

Land-use change and lack of conservation in Bogowonto Watershed area have caused land degradation due to erosion and landslides. The rate of land degradation can be measured through the morphological characteristics of the soil and landscape. This study aimed to identify the relationship between the morphological characteristics of the soil and the rate of land degradation in Bogowonto Watershed area. The research framework initiated from the interpretation of thematic maps, surveys and field observations, and verification using land degradation assessment software. Sample points were determined using a stratified random sampling method. In general, land degradation is affected by slope, limited soil development, suboptimal conservation measures, and land-use change. Particularly, land degradation is affected by the type of landscape and the morphological characteristics of the soil. Volcanic hilly landscapes show a degradation rate of fine to very fine, characterized by thick soil depth (>60 cm), generous root distribution, loamy textured soil, fine soil particle size (Ø <0.002 mm), and good soil structure. The distribution of easily weathered volcanic ash causes volcanic hills to have thick and fertile soil characteristics. Quaternary-tertiary volcanic transition landscapes show a degradation rate of damaged to heavily damaged, characterized by thin soil depth (<60 cm), limited rooting, dominant coarse fraction (Ø 2–0.05 mm), and contact with fields lithological discontinuity. The data obtained provide information on the morphological characteristics of the soil and land degradation in Bogowonto Watershed area. The results of the study can also be used as a formulation for the conservation of Bogowonto Watershed area.

Abstract

Top soil was rich in nutrients for plant growth. Upper soil loss due to mining is a serious problem. The remaining soil was subordinate land which has poor soil characteristics and low productivity. This study aimed to improve the characteristics of mined soils by providing soil amelioration. The study was conducted in a former brick mining area in the village of Potorono Banguntapan, Yogyakarta, Indonesia. The study consisted of two stages. The first stage was a pot experiment using soils from a former brick mining area. The soil was mixed with coconut shell biochar as an ameliorant material at doses of 0, 10, 15 and 20 t/ha and incubated for 1, 2 and 3 months. The second phase of research was a demo farm. The demo farm aimed to compare the best results of the use of biochar in the first stage of this study with organic matter application in the second phase of the study. The organic matters used were cow dung and bagasse. Each of the two types of organic matter was applied at a rate of 15 t/ha. The organic matters were incorporated into the soil in a demo farm plot of 4x4 m2 size in 1, 2 and 3 months. The results showed that application of coconut shell biochar ameliorant at a dose of 15 t/ha increased soil organic-C by 0.78% at two months of incubation, while soil cation exchange capacity increased at three months of incubation. The yield of plants obtained from the soil previously applied with coconut shell biochar was better than that applied with cow dung and bagasse as organic matters.

Abstract

Coal mining is carried out with an open system that is dredging topsoil, and then taken the coal material. In 2016, the Indonesian Center for Agricultural Land Resources Research and Development conducted a survey, mapping and characterization of ex-coal mine areas in Tapin, Tabalong, Balangan, and Hulu Sungai Selatan regencies. This paper aimed to provide information based on the soil biophysical characteristics on ex-coal mine lands and to assess the land suitability for agricultural crops. The land characteristics obtained were then matched with the criteria of quality/suitability land for agricultural crops. The ex-coal mine lands in the four regencies cover an area of 17,141 ha. The landform characteristics have changed, namely voids and piles of excavated products in the form of small piles to hilly called anthropogenic landforms. According to Soil Taxonomy, the soil is classified as anthropic soil that was formed from material transported by humans, as Endoaquents Anthroportic, Epiaquents Anthroportic, and Udorthents Anthroportic. The heavy metals found were Pb, Hg, and Cd that varied from low to high uneven both vertically and horizontally. The land suitability class of Suitable (S) for dryland food crops, vegetable crops and forage crops covered 12,606 ha, while for annual crops covered 14,158 ha. The land suitability class is classified as Marginally suitable (S3), and the remaining as Not suitable (N). Based on the biophysical conditions, the ex-coal mine area requires considerable land reclamation and rehabilitation efforts, both for the restoration of soil chemical and physical properties.

Abstract

The need for irrigation water is influenced by soil water content or more precisely by available water (pF 2.5 and pF 4.2). There is a need for technological breakthroughs in using Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) to identify water content quickly and broadly and accurately. The study was conducted in an area of ±18 hectares in the Sisim Sub Watershed in September 2019 at 09.00 a.m. Aerial photographs were taken at an altitude of 100 m with DJI Phantom Pro 3.0. The number of observation points was 75 points, where 15 points for validation were calculated based on the map scale. Photo processing was made using Agisoft. The Digital Elevation Model (DEMNAS) with 8.2 m resolution was used to compare the red, green and blue bands. The analysis used was Co-Kriging Geo Statistics Analysis, the compilation of algorithms based on the regression equation and ten index formulations. Validation was done by correlation continued with the regression or paired t-test if the parameter relationship was close. The available water measured in the field ranged from 5.16-48.28%. The results showed that the formulation of soil water content could be run on the Red, Green, and Blue bands, Intensity index, TGI index, ExGreen index and DEMNAS with a weak correlation (below 0.5), where TGI had the highest value (r=0.32). A test of t-pairing was not done because of a weak correlation. The highest estimation of pF 4.2 is DEMNAS (r=0.35), and pF 2.5 was on the TGI index (r=0.4).

Abstract

A series of experiments in a plastic house were carried out to test the accumulation of Pb metal in Chinese cabbage and bean plants from the application of several Pb sources. The research method used was a split-plot design with the main plot was the application of Pb source consisting of A1 = pesticide (99 mg Pb/kg), A2 = fertilizer (21 mg Pb/kg), A3 = Pb(NO3)2 (50 mg Pb/kg) and A4 = control (without the application of Pb), and the subplot was the vegetable crops consisting of B1 = Chinese cabbage (Brassica rapa) and B2 = bean (Phaseolus vulgaris). The results of the experiment showed that the Pb content in the shoots of Chinese cabbage and bean plants that were previously sprayed with pesticide was significantly 231.02% (Chinese cabbage) and 257.18% (bean) higher than control plants. Meanwhile, the largest Pb concentrations in the roots of Chinese cabbage and bean plants were obtained in plants applied with Pb(NO3)2. Compared to the control treatment, there was an increase in Pb concentration by 206.32% in the roots of Chinese cabbage plant and by 310.03% in the roots of bean plant which were applied with Pb(NO3)2. Pb concentrations of Chinese cabbage which were given fertilizer increased by 14.86% in the shoot and 30.59% in the root, while those in bean increased by 10.74% in the shoot and 98.77% in the root. Pb concentrations in Chinese cabbage and beans that were given fertilizer were not significantly different from control plants. These results indicate that the application of pesticide and fertilizer containing Pb results in Pb accumulation in the plant shoots and roots as well as in the soil.

Abstract

The sole purpose of a compacted landfill liner is to contain and mitigate the impact of leachate on the environment. This research assessed the engineering properties of bentonite enhanced termite mound mixture to ascertain their suitability as an alternate landfill liner. The mixture of mound soil and bentonite was proportioned by percentage weight as (100:0), (95:5), (90:10) and (85:15) respectively. The compaction analysis reveals an optimum moisture content ranging from 13.80% to 18.52% and a maximum dry density that varied from 1.72 g/cm3 to 1.88 g/cm3. The hydraulic conductivity result of 15% bentonite-mound soil mixture (0.23 x 10-9 m/s) established hydraulic conductivity less than 1 x 10-9 m/s, which satisfied the criteria for landfill liner. Hence, a mixture of 15% bentonite enhanced mound soil is found suitable as an alternate bottom liner.

Abstract

Considering the content of various elements in coal fly ash (CFA),  it has the potential to be used as an additional source of nutrients in the soil. However, the use of CFA for agriculture is still debated because CFA contains several metal elements. The purpose of this study was to study the CFA phytotoxicity to seed germination and metal uptake by plants on acid soil. The first experiment was the study of the effect of extracts of various CFA and soil mixtures (5% - 45% CFA) on the germination of mustard seeds. The second study was a CFA phytotoxicity test for plant growth and metal uptake by the mustard plant. Results of the first experiment showed that the application of CFA had no significant effect on mustard seed germination, but had a significant effect on radicle length. CFA application increased the uptake of Pb and Cu by plant along with the increase in the proportion of CFA in the CFA + soil mixture. The contents of Cu and Pb in the mustard plant due to CFA application up to 30% were still below the threshold levels of Cu (36 ppm) and Pb (2 ppm).
