Recycling this waste as a fertilizer is an economically and environmentally attractive option. Determining the availability of macro- and micronutrients in these sludges is important if such wastes are to provide sufficient nutrients to crops while causing minimal environmental damage. A greenhouse study with two kenaf cultivars ('Everglades 41' and 'Tainung 2') was designed to evaluate the effects of sewage sludge processing mode on plant development, biomass yield, and nutrient availability. Two different processing modes of sludges (digested dewatered and pelletized-heat dried) applied at two rates, 10 and 20 Mg ha-1 were compared with inorganic N and a zero-N control. Plant height, basal stems diameter and biomass production increased slightly with the sewage sludge treatments but in different manners depending on the kenaf cultivar in question. Both sludges were similar in their ability to supply N to the plants. Apparent N recovery and N fertilizer equivalent value were greater in the low dosage treatments. Of the two cultivars, 'Everglades 41' showed greater mean values for all the variables studied. No differences were found in leaf P, K, Ca, Mg contents among treatments. The Zn and Cu concentrations were the only trace elements that increased in the leaf tissues with sludge application, although the values recorded were well below critical environmental thresholds. | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10261/295237 | DOI: | 10.5424/sjar/2010082-1202 | ISSN: | 1695-971X | E-ISSN: | 2171-9292 |
