CLEANSED PROJECT ACTION B and C • ANALYSIS ON SAMPLES FROM CEBAS-CSIC: • Analysisoncontaminatedsediments (General analysis) • and treatedsediments Chemicalanalysis: pH, CE, OM, TOC, soluble C Physicalanalysis: Humidity, bulkdensity, water holding capacity Toxicologicalanalysis: Cu, Zn, Cd, Cr, Ni, Pb Nutritional and elemental analysis: N, P, K, Ca, Mg, Mn, Na, Fe Plantphytotoxic test (Petri plate). Germinationindexon 2 differentseeds (Lepidiumsativun and Hordeumvulgare).
CEBAS SEDIMENTS AFTER TREATMENT ANALYSIS FROM CEBAS-CSIC
CEBAS BULK DENSITY AND WATER CAPACITY CURVES (PhysicalParameters) Balancing the air and water contents has been one of the biggest problems facing greenhouse growers. The substrate can greatly influence the air and water content in the root zone. For this reason, mixtures used in greenhouses are fairly close in total porosity; usually between 80 and 90%.
CEBAS WATER HOLDING CAPACITY (WRC) WHC in sedimentsaftertreatmentisbetween 17-20%. Sediments could be mixedwithotherresidues in order to increase WHC
CEBAS pH and EC Sedimentsaftertreatment: Basic pH (>8) and low EC (<300 microS/cm). Humiditybetween 14-20%
CEBAS C AND NUTRIENTS IN SEDIMENTS Total organic C washigher in Paspalumvaginatum, Tamarix+Paspalum and Oleander+ Paspalum. MaybePaspalumincreasesthe TOC and soluble organic C. Soluble N is between 400-500 ppm in allsamples.
CEBAS CHEMICAL ELEMENTS IN SEDIMENTS Elementgroups: (Ca, Al, Fe) >> (Mg, K, S, P, Na) >>> (Mn, Zn, Cr, Ti, Sr)
CEBAS CHEMICAL ELEMENTS IN SEDIMENTS Cd could be the more toxic heavy metal
CEBAS ANIONS ON SEDIMENTS AFTER TREATMENT Themostabundantanionmeasured in sedimentsafter treatmentwasSO4-2.

CEBAS SEDIMENTS WHITOUT TREATMENT ANALYSIS FROM CEBAS-CSIC
CEBAS BULK DENSITY AND WATER HOLDING CURVES (physicalparameters) A correct moisture in a adequate substrate prior to use would avoid the need of heavily watering after seeding
CEBAS WATER HOLDING CAPACITY (WHC) Water holding capacity is about 5%, in LC <2%. Sandy-Silt showed 20% of WHC
CEBAS pH and EC HC LC Sandy-ClaySandy.Silt Electricalconductivity: 6-12 miliS/cm. Basic pH forallsamples

DECONTAMINATED SEDIMENT ADITIVES Organic and inorganics AMENDMENTS FOR SOIL-PLANT SYSTEM Toincreasesediment quality, fertility and productivity EDAPHIC BIOSTIMULANT Organicaditive Inorganicaditive To increase micror-ganisms such as aero- bic bacteria, micorri-zation,… To improve the structure of the decontaminated sediment SEDIMENT AS AMENDMENT FOR SOIL-PLANT SYSTEM
CEBAS PRELIMINARY CONCLUSIONS • -- THE TREATMENT ON SEDIMENTS INCREASES TOC AND REDUCES EC. • -- MACRO AND MICRONUTRIENTS HAS BEEN DETERMINED. • -- PHYSICAL PARAMETERS COULD ALSO BE IMPROVED WITH THE TREATMENT. • -- A POSIBLE BIOSTIMULANT EFFECT HAS BEEN SHOWED IN PLANTS TEST • WE WILL ANALYSE HEAVY METAL CONTENT ON PLANTS • A MIXTURE COULD BE ESTABLISHED: TREATED SEDIMENT + • VEGETAL RESIDUES (aeration, waterholding capacity) • 5) COMPOSTING PROCESS WITH SEDIMENTS COULD BE ASSAYED WHAT WE WILL DO NOW??
