AB  - Dredged sediment contaminated with heavy metals can be remediated through phytoremediation. The main challenge in phytoremediation is the limited availability of heavy metals for plant uptake, particularly in multi-contaminated soil or sediment. This study aimed to assess the effect of the nitrogen fertilizers ammonium nitrate (AN), ammonium sulfate (AS), and urea (UR)), organic acids (oxalic (OA) and malic (MA) acids), and their combined addition to sediment on enhancing the bioavailability and phytoremediation efficiency of heavy metals. The sediment dredged from Begej Canal (Serbia) had high levels of Cr, Cd, Cu, and Pb and was used in pot experiments to cultivate energy crop rapeseed Brassica napus), which is known for its tolerance to heavy metals. The highest accumulation and translocation of Cu, Cd, and Pb were observed in the treatment with AN at a dose of 150 mg N/kg (AN150), in which shoot biomass was also the highest. The application of OA and MA increased heavy metal uptake but resulted in the lowest biomass production. A combination of MA with N fertilizers showed high uptake and accumulation of Cr and Cu.

AB  - Polluted sediments with organic pollutants like PAHs represent a potential danger to environment, human health and potential obstacle to water management. Removal of polluted sediment provides the potential for reuse of nutrients from sediment, for crop production or for materials in building industry. The purpose of this study was to determine the efficacy of using hard wood biochar for the immobilization of bioaccessible polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in historically polluted sediment. The main question is would carbon materials' presence (in this case biochar) have influence on PAH bioavailability and their stability in sediment. This is important because the world trend is to go for sediment reuse in agriculture purposes, and biochar is proven to be good amendment for increasing soil organic carbon (SOC) stabilization and increasing soil carbon stock. The manuscript provides a detailed consideration of the supersorption performance of the biochar and PAH sequestration in different types of PAHs with aging period up to 6 months in ex situ treatment. The efficiency of biochar to sequester the PAHs was evaluated by assessing the bioavailable fraction (Frap) using desorption method with Amberlite XAD4 resin assistance. In untreated sediment, Frap ranged from 22% up to 42% for 2–4 rings, and around 9% for 5–6 rings PAHs. 180-days amendment of biochar led to a further decrease in the bioavailable portion of PAHs. The results of this laboratory study shown that biochar produced from hard wood gave promising results for binding and further stabilizing PAH in historically polluted sediments.

AB  - Industrialization and human activities have resulted in the release of various contaminants into the aquatic ecosystem. As a result of the discharge of untreated wastewater, heavy metals are often present in the sediment. Phytoremediation is the environmentally friendly process of using plants and their associated microbes for environmental cleanup due to their intensive uptake of contaminants. To assess the phytoremediation ability of different species of energy plant, pot tests were conducted. The heavy metal contaminated sediment from Begej Canal was used. Pot experiments were performed in the open field under natural weather conditions, in pots filled with 20 kg of sediment. Plants selected for pot trials were rapeseed (Brassica napus), white mustard (Brassica alba), hemp (Cannabis sativa), and sunflower (Helianthus annuus). Pots with rapeseed were treated with commercial products for plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria, PGPR (TrifenderPro, PanoramaBio, and BioEho). Ten weeks after sowing, harvest was performed, and the below- and above-ground biomasses were measured. The contaminated sediment did not affect plant growth and obtained biomass. Among rape-seed trials, the highest biomass was obtained in the treatment with PGPR TrifenderPro. The plant samples were digested, and the content of Pb, Cr, and Cu was analyzed. Bioaccumulation (BAF) and translocation factors (TF) were calculated. In the case of Cr, the highest BAF was obtained for rapeseed with no treatment and with TrifenderPro treatment, and hemp. In the case of Cu the highest BAF was obtained for sunflower. TF was <1, which indicates that the main mechanism of metal removal is phytostabilization, not phytoextraction.

AB  - Organic pollutants in sediments are a worldwide problem because sediments act as sinks for hydrophobic, toxic, persistent and bioaccumulative hazardous compoundssuch as pentachlorobenzene (PeCB). PeCB can be involved in adsorption, desorption and transformation processes and can be made available to benthic organisms through the sediment-water interface. In order to reduce the risk, this study investigates effects of the dose and contact time between sediment and carbon-rich amendments (activated carbon (AC), biochar (BC) and hummus (HC)) on the effectiveness of detoxification. Four doses of carbon-rich amendments (0.5-10 %) and four equilibrations contact times (14 -180 days) were investigated. The present research highlights the need for further examination and process optimization of different carbon-rich materials used for contaminant removal. Results have shown that the smallest dose (0.5 %) of investigated sorbents was sufficient to reduce the bioavailable fraction of PeCB below 5 %, and the ageing process after 14 days for AC and 30 days for HM and BC negligibly influenced the bioavailable fraction.
