“…Other bioenergy byproducts with highly available C have also found to cause a short-term immobilization of N [1]. Dehydrogenase is an intracellular enzyme participating in the biological oxidation of organic compounds in soil [37] and is frequently reported to be related to the organic matter availability in the soil [28,38]. In the few studies identifying the impact of biochar on soil enzymes, there are discrepancies and inconsistencies among the documented findings.…”

Abstract:The bioenergy industry produces a wide range of byproducts varying in their chemical composition depending on type of technology employed. In particular, pyrolysis and transesterification conversion processes generate C-rich byproducts of biochar (BC) and glycerol (GL), respectively, which can be added to soil. These two byproducts vary in their carbon availability, and comparing their effects when added to agricultural soil deserves attention. This study investigated the immediate and residual effects of a single application of BC and GL to a cultivated Brown Chernozem soil from the semi-arid region of southwestern Saskatchewan, Canada. In the first season following addition of amendments, BC and GL alone had no significant impact on all measured parameters. However, when combined with 50 kg urea N¨ha´1 (BC + UR), the yields obtained were similar to those with 100 kg urea N¨ha´1 alone. The GL with urea N (GL + UR) treatment had reduced crop yield and N uptake compared to urea alone in the year of application attributed to N immobilization, but had a positive residual effect in the second year due to remineralization. Both GL and GL + UR treatments enhanced dehydrogenase activity compared to other treatments whereas BC + UR tended to decrease microbial biomass C. The crop and soil response to application of biochar was less than observed in previous studies conducted elsewhere. Direct and residual effects of glycerol addition on the crop were more evident. An application rate greater than 2.8 t¨ha´1 and 3.5 t¨ha´1 for BC and GL, respectively, may be required to induce larger responses.

BACKGROUND: Coal combustion bottom ash(BA) has high carbon and calcium content, and alkaline pH, which might improve nutrient cycling in soil related to microbial enzyme activities as it is used as soil amendment. However, it contains heavy metals such as copper(Cu), manganese (Mn), and zinc(Zn), which could cause heavy metals accumulation in soil. Compost might play a role that stabilize BA. The objective of this study was to evaluate effect of combined application of BA and compost as soil amendment on heavy metals concentration, enzyme activities, chemical properties, and crop yield in upland soil.

“…Conversely, loss of any microbial biochemical activity is an indicator of decreased soil quality (Chapman et al, 2007;Chiurazzi, 2008;Zak et al, 1994). Application of Organic amendment increases overall enzyme activity (Mäder et al, 2002;García-Ruiz et al, 2008;Moeskops et al, 2010). However, activities of specific enzymes are influenced by several factors; composition of the amendments and its pH, texture and relative availability of nutrients (Acosta-Martínez et al, 2007;Sinsabaugh et al, 2008;Stursová and Baldrian, 2010).…”
