“…Combined cropping of both species caused decreased As, Cd, and Pb concentrations in T. caerulescens shoots compared to separately planted treatment on both soils (Table 1). From the phytoextraction angle, As and Pb contents in both T. caerulescens and S. dasyclados above-ground biomass are negligible confirming thus our previous results (Fischerová et al 2006, Tlustoš et al 2007). In T. caerulescens shoots, total concentration of Zn increased significantly in the combined treatment on moderately contaminated soil (Table 1) whereas no significant changes in Zn concentrations in total above-ground biomass could be observed for S. dasyclados.…”

Most phytoremediation technologies are based on the use of selected plant species cropped as in monoculture. Separated (monoculture) and combined (simultaneous) cropping of hyperaccumulator Thlaspi caerulescens and accumulator tree Salix dasyclados were tested in our experiment. We used moderately and highly contaminated soil. Extremely contaminated soil caused progressive mortality of willows planted separately. Combined cropping with T. caerulescens enabled willows to survive. Generally, we determined decreased bioaccumulation of As, Cd, and Pb in both tested species and Zn in willow plants. Combined cropping enhanced bioaccumulation of Zn in T. caerulescens shoots. The remediation efficiency of the individual species in the co-cropping system did not differ from those obtained in separate cropping mode. For As and Pb the negligible effectiveness of phytoextraction was confirmed for both separate and combined cropping of the tested plant species.

“…On a biochar amended arsenic polluted soil, Beesley et al (2014) also found a higher accumulation in tomato roots. Tlustoš et al (2007) concluded similarly for different Salix clones grown on three different multi-contaminated soils (As, Cd, Zn, Pb). Vamerali et al (2009) tested several Populus and Salix species on a metal (Co, Cu, Pb, Zn) and As contaminated waste and found that the PTE concentrations were higher in the roots than in aboveground tissues.…”

Mining activities lead to widespread environmental pollution of terrestrial ecosystems due to the presence of metal(loid)s in tailings. These contaminated areas present a health risk and hence need to be rehabilitated. Ex situ methods for soil remediation have been used for a long time but are expensive and disruptive to soil. Phytoremediation techniques for the stabilization or extraction of metal(loid)s could be an efficient alternative as they provide a low-cost and environmentally friendly option. A C C E P T E D M A N U S C R I P T ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPTHowever, due to the often poor nutrient content of these contaminated soils, amendments must be added to enhance plant growth and to improve phytoremediation efficiency. Biochar, a pyrogenic product, is a promising amendment for assisted phytoremediation. The aims of our study were (i) to evaluate the effect of a pinewood biochar on the physicochemical properties of a former mine contaminated technosol, (ii) to assess the mobility and phytoavailability of As and Pb and (iii) to investigate the remediation potential of three willow species (Salix alba, Salix viminalis and Salix purpurea). A greenhouse experiment was conducted with contaminated technosols amended with biochar and garden soil, single or combined, revegetated with the 3 willow species. The physicochemical properties of soil pore water (SPW) as well as metal(loid) concentrations were determined. Plant growth, Salix organ dry weight and metal(loid) uptake were determined in order to evaluate the phytoremediation potential of the three Salix species studied. Biochar increased the pH and electrical conductivity of SPW. Biochar addition had no effect on As mobility but decreased SPW Pb concentration by 70%. For the three Salix species investigated, biochar addition to the polluted soil induced a better growth and a higher dry weight production. In most modalities tested, the metal(loid)A C C E P T E D M A N U S C R I P T ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPTcontent in the Salix organs increased due to the biochar application.

In this experiment we proved an effect of dolomite limestone on chemical immobilization in soil contaminated by trace metals, namely Cd, Pb, and Zn. Primary, we set up lysimeter pot experiment to measure soil leaching without vegetation. Willow clone (S. × smithiana Willd) was cultivated in the second lysimeter pot as a new approach to monitor Pb, Cd and Zn leaching, which was affected by soil liming (used in 1% rate). At the time of both harvests, aboveground biomass increased significantly at the amended variant. After the second harvest aboveground biomass production increased by 80% in comparison with the first one, Cd and Zn concentration in biomass decreased 2-fold and 3-fold, respectively. Dolomite limestone as a process of liming: (i) restricted metals leaching from the soil substrate; (ii) reduced metal uptake by willow; and (iii) increased biomass production of willow. Liming also alleviated the plant stress imposed by risk elements resulting in better plant growth and lower levels of stress markers (total nitrogen content and the main amino acid metabolism parameters in the willow leaves) yet through different mechanisms.
