Ecotoxicological impact of deactivated asbestos-cement on soil ecosystems

Waste Management, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 202, P. 114825 - 114825

Published: April 24, 2025

The effects of thermally deactivated asbestos cement (DAC) on the soil ecosystem were evaluated using model organism Folsomia candida (Collembola). Two materials obtained by treating slates, commonly used for roofing, at 1100 °C under oxidizing conditions (Red DAC) and 1150 reducing (Green DAC). Ten age-synchronized juveniles F. exposed to DAC powder:soil mixtures in ratios 1:1 1:10 both types. After 28 days, adults counted assess treatment effects. results indicate distinct toxicity profiles. Red powder did not induce adult lethality tested concentrations; however, a significant reduction juvenile production was observed higher concentration (1:1). In contrast, Green caused concentration, with no produced. Both contain high percentage silica glass (∼40% weight), well-known insect dehydration agent mechanical insecticide. At highest may cause detrimental juveniles, which are more sensitive than adults. also contains 8.5% lime (CaO), an antimicrobial insecticidal that can disrupt pH. combination silica-induced lime-mediated alkalinity account lethal These findings reinforce need proper recycling. While deactivation effectively eliminates its hazard built environment, improper disposal or contamination pose ecological risks. Recycling into stable matrices, such as ceramics mortar, minimizes environmental while promoting circular economy.

Effective Microbial Strategies to Remediate Contaminated Agricultural Soils and Conserve Functions

Agronomy, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 14(11), P. 2637 - 2637

Published: Nov. 8, 2024

The growing global emphasis on sustainable agriculture has brought increased attention to the health and productivity of soils, especially through lens soil microbiology. Microbial communities in are essential for nutrient cycling, organic matter decomposition, maintaining overall health. However, agricultural practices, including synthetic fertilizers intensive farming, have led short time impacts these microbial ecosystems, potentially threatening fertility environmental quality. Agricultural expansion food production generate waste chemical inputs, such as heavy metals, pesticides, herbicides, leading significant contamination. This scenario requires implementation remediation strategies that both energy efficient. In this context, microbiological processes present a much promising approach mitigating pollution. Techniques bioremediation, which harness natural metabolic capabilities microorganisms, bioaugmentation, involves introduction specific strains increase degradation processes, being explored. These approaches vital restoring health, contributing conservation biodiversity, improving promoting long-term productivity.
