[Ecological effect of recirculated landfill leachate with different hydraulic loading on plant-soil system].
The ecological effect of irrigating recirculated leachate with different hydraulic loading on bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon) and soil system was evaluated. The results show that leachate irrigation with hydraulic loading of 2.77-12.00 mm d(-1) leads to high chlorophyll content, low proline (Pro) content, as well as low malondialdehyde (MDA) and H2O2 content. Soil enzyme activities, respirations, microbial biomass and ratio of biomass carbon to organic carbon (Cmic/Corg) are rather higher. Among leachte irrigation group, leachate irrigation with hydraulic loading of 6.46-10.15 mm x d(-1) leads to declined proline, increased chlorophyll content, low POD activity and low content of MDA and H2O2. Soil bio-activity related parameters, such as soil enzyme activities, respirations, microbial biomass and Cmic/Corg are all enhanced at 6.46-10.15 mm x d(-1) of hydraulic loading. However, when hydraulic loading increases to 12.00 mm x d(-1) or declines to 2.77-4.16 mm x d(-1), the stress of irrigation on bermudagrass is aggravated, and soil bioactivity declines. The results reveal that leachate irrigation could alleviate the stress of environment on bermudagrass and improve the bio-activity of soil. The positive effect of leachate irrigation on the plant-soil system might be contributed to changes of soil water and physico-chemical property after leachate irrigated to the soil. The experimental results suggest that leachate irrigation could benefit plant-soil system, especially when controlled at suitable hydraulic loading.
