Use of Sewage Sludge Compost as the Restoration Agent on the Degraded Soil of Tatarstan

Abstract: One of the characteristics of soils in Tatarstan is their low organic matter content. The decrease in soil organic matter is paralleled by declines in soil fertility. One method to reverse this degradation in soil quality is the addition of organic matter. The use of sewage sludge on soils intended for growing of plant seedlings provides an alternative for sewage sludge disposal. Therefore, the evaluation of the feasibility of using compost from the municipal sewage sludge produced in Kazan for the soil restor… Show more

“…Sewage sludge use in agricultural production systems has become an interesting alternative to discarding it, as it may increase overall crop production [3]. Risks associated with sludge application in forest plantations are lower than in agriculture, since tropical Eucalyptus plantations are usually managed to produce fire wood, charcoal, boards, or pulp and paper, and the final product (wood biomass) is not incorporated into the human food chain.…”

“…The influence of pollutants contained in sewage sludges on their toxicity has not, so far, been demonstrated un-equivocally [Oleszczuk et al 2011]. On the other hand, however, high contents of organic matter and nutrients make sewage sludge a perfect material for fertilization and recultivation of degraded soils [Albiach et al 2001, Selivanovskaya et al 2003]. Apart from soil enrichment in nutrients [Fytili and Zabaniotou 2008], an addition of sewage sludge causes an increase in the content of organic matter in soil [Epstein 2003].…”

“…Sua utilização em plantios florestais, visando melhorar a fertilidade do solo e manter o estoque de nutrientes no ecossistema, poderia ser uma nova opção ecológica e economicamente interessante (FORSTER et al, 1977) De acordo com , o potencial agronômico do lodo é inquestionável, mas sua utilização em áreas agrícolas produtivas deve ser feita de maneira cuidadosa de modo a não provocar danos à saúde pública, ao meio ambiente ou prejuízos financeiros ao agricultor. Selivanovskaya et al (2003) assinalam que um dos métodos para melhorar a qualidade de solos pobres seria a adição de matéria orgânica e sugerem o uso de lodo de esgoto para favorecer o crescimento das plantas, além de ser uma excelente alternativa para a disposição deste resíduo urbano. consideram que o lodo é uma fonte orgânica de nutrientes, entretanto os metais pesados, eventualmente presentes, podem acumular-se no solo depois de repetidas aplicações e, dependendo das concentrações, podem gerar impactos indesejáveis sobre os microrganismos, as plantas e os animais.…”

“…De acordo com , a disposição agrícola ou florestal do lodo de esgoto, incluído os custos de transporte até 100 km, seria mais vantajosa pelo aspecto econômico do que as outras alternativas de disposição como o despejo em aterro sanitário ou sua incineração. Selivanovskaya et al (2003) sugerem que um método para inverter o processo de degradação e melhorar a qualidade do solo é a adição de matéria orgânica, para tal, citam que o uso de lodo de esgoto em culturas pode ter efeito positivo, aumentando o crescimento das plantas, sendo uma excelente alternativa para disposição do lodo de esgoto.…”
