“…Growing industrialisation frequently leads to excessive environmental pollution and to irreversible or hardly reversible changes of its status [1][2]. A particular hazard to the soil environment is created by contamination, which is followed by the transfer of contaminants to plants growing on the soils and further parts of the food chain [3]. Trace metals are one of the most hazardous contaminants in the environment.…”

“…They change soil properties [4], especially its microbiological and biochemical properties [5], thereby creating disruption in transformations and circulation of elements in the environment [3,6]. This can lead to limiting the absorption of essential micronutrients and to excessive accumulation of contaminants in crops [7].…”

“…Excessive amounts of copper can restrict the growth of plants by having an adverse effect on yield and quality [10], and it causes diseases in humans and animals [11]. Therefore, it is important to maintain the optimum concentrations of copper in soil and to limit its absorption by plants if its level in soil increases excessively [3,12]. Apart from phytoremediation [13], one of the "in situ" methods involves applying different substances in the soil, whose aim is to limit or neutralise the effect of contaminants [14][15][16].…”

The aim of this study was to determine the effects of copper contamination (0, 50, 100, 150, and 200 mg Cu/kg of soil) and neutralising substances on the content of total organic carbon, total nitrogen, available forms of phosphorus, potassium, and magnesium, and C:N ratio in soil. The experiment was conducted in four series: without neutralising substances and with compost 3% of soil weight, bentonite 2% of soil weight, and zeolite 2% of soil weight. Contamination of soil with copper and the application of the neutralising substances had a significant effect on soil properties. Contamination with copper in the series without substances increased the content of total nitrogen and available phosphorus, potassium, and especially magnesium. Copper also widened the C:N ratio in soil. All of the amendments applied to the soil had the strongest effect on the content of total nitrogen and the C:N ratio in soil. They reduced the content of total nitrogen and widened the C:N ratio. Amendments also increased the content of available magnesium in soil. The effect of the substances applied to soil on the content of the other elements was significantly weaker, as it changed by up to 12%.

“…A significant decrease in the content of cobalt in soil following the application of manure was also observed in this study. Zeolite has a beneficial effect related to the availability of heavy metals due to a large sorption area and their consequent adsorption [21,22]. Wyszkowski and Sivitskaya [23] found zeolite to reduce the content of cadmium and lead in soil.…”

The aim of the study was to determine the effect of increasing doses of cobalt (0, 20, 40, 80, 160, 320 mg/kg d.m. of soil) on the total content of trace elements in soil after application of manure, clay, charcoal, zeolite and calcium oxide. The neutralizing substances were applied at 2% of the soil weight, and calcium oxide at a dose corresponding to one hydrolytic acidity. The content of the cobalt, cadmium, lead, chromium, nickel, zinc, copper, manganese and iron was determined in soil. The contamination of soil with cobalt and the application of neutralizing substances had significant effects on the total content of trace elements in soil In the series without substances, the soil contamination with cobalt increased the content of cobalt, lead, chromium, nickel and zinc in soil. All the neutralizing substances reduced the content of cobalt, manganese and iron in soil. The highest decrease in the cobalt content was observed in the series with manure, whereas the highest decrease in zinc occurred after addition of charcoal. The decrease in the content of the other metals (except nickel and lead) was observed in the pots with CaO and zeolite. The effect of other neutralizing substances depended on the trace element.

The aim of the study was to determine the effectiveness of soil application of manure, clay, charcoal, zeolite, and calcium oxide in remediation of soil polluted with cobalt (0, 20, 40, 80, 160, 320 mg Co kg −1 of soil). The following were determined: weight of harvested plants as well as the content of cobalt in grain, straw, and roots of oat. In addition, tolerance index (Ti), cobalt bioconcentration (BCF), translocation (TF), and transfer (TFr) coefficients were derived. In the series without amendments, the increasing doses of cobalt had a significant effect by decreasing the yields of oat grain and straw and the mass of its roots. Also, lower tolerance index values were noted in the objects polluted with cobalt, especially with its highest dose. The application of manure had the strongest effect on increasing the mass of particular organs of the test plant, while the application of charcoal led to a significant decrease in this respect. The application of all substances to the soil, and especially manure and calcium oxide, resulted in higher tolerance index Ti values. The growing contamination of soil with cobalt caused a significant increase in the content of this element in oat and in the values of the translocation coefficient, in contrast to the effects noted with respect to the bioconcentration and transfer coefficients. All the substances applied to soil reduced the content of cobalt and its bioconcentration in oat straw, in opposition to grain and roots, limited its translocation, but elevated the transfer of this element from soil to plants. Soil contamination with cobalt promoted the accumulation of lead and copper in grain, cadmium, lead, nickel, zinc, manganese, and iron in straw, as well as cadmium, nickel, zinc, and manganese in oat roots. As the cobalt dose increased, the content of other trace elements in oat organs either decreased or did not show any unambiguous changes. Of all the tested substances, the strongest influence on the content of trace elements was produced by calcium oxide in straw and roots and by zeolite in roots, whereas the weakest effect was generated by manure in oat grain. Oat is not the best plant for phytoremediation of soils contaminated with cobalt.
