Accomplishments
Objective 1: Characterize the chemical and physical properties of residuals and residual-amended soils.
Work on a large, multi-state cooperative project on the phytoavailability of N in biosolids amended soils was completed. The study included laboratory, field and modeling components. The research involved W170 members from Arkansas, Washington State, Michigan, Oregon, and Virginia. The project culminated with the publication of the study?s findings in the Journal of Environmental Quality: Gilmour, J.T., C.G. Cogger, L.W. Jacobs, G.K. Evanylo, and D.M. Sullivan. 2003. Decomposition and plant-available nitrogen in biosolids: Laboratory studies, field studies, and computer simulation. J. Environ. Qual. 32:1498-1507.
Phosphorus in Biosolids - A great deal of research was also conducted on the phyto- and bioavailability of P in manures and biosolids in comparison to commercial P fertilizers. Research focused on defining appropriate measurement indices to evaluate the potential environmental impact of P added to soils. Runoff of soil added P was measured in a number of laboratory studies. The potential to reduce the environmental impact of soil P was also investigated through the addition of water treatment residuals to high P soils. Cooperative projects included ongoing studies at Penn State and U FL as well as new work with UFL and Michigan. Similar themes were present in many projects, indicating that cooperation was an important element of the research. Details of specific projects are provided below.
In PA, Twenty food processing residuals (FPRs) which are routinely recycled on cropland were analyzed for total nutrient content and water extractable P to determine how these products will be impacted by implementation of P-based nutrient management. Many of the FPR have low P content and so their land application will not be significantly affected once the P Index is in place. Some FPRs (from dairy products and meat processing) have significant P content which may impact their disposal via land application. In Hawaii, a range of animal manures was analyzed for total nutrient and trace element composition. Total N and P were similar to values reported for manures on the mainland, however, higher total Cu and Zn concentrations were found in the Hawaiian manures.
Objective 2: Evaluation of nutrient and trace element bioavailabilities in residual-amended field and greenhouse studies.
P availability - In OR, OR initiated a study to refine the P source component of the P-Index to recognize (i) differences in P solubility among biosolids sources and (2) differences in P solubility between biosolids-P and fertilizer-P. Available P recovered from soil increased linearly with P application rate up to 900 mg P kg-1. Biosolids with Al or Fe addition at the wastewater treatment plant (PSI = 0.3 to 0.7) had P availabilities equivalent to 6 to 32 % of fertilizer-P. Other biosolids (PSI = 0.9 to 1.7) had P availabilities equal to 38 to 82 % of fertilizer P. We recommend that the Oregon NRCS P-Index be modified to include phosphorus availability coefficients (PAC) for biosolids relative to P fertilizer based on biosolids PSI. We recommend a PAC = 0.2 for alum-treated or ferric chloride treated biosolids with PSI < 0.7; PAC = 0.5 for biosolids with PSI = 0.7 to 1.3; and PAC = 0.8 for biosolids with PSI > 1.3. Similar results were also observed in VA where both total and available P and N in composts and poultry litter were evaluated in a field study.
Runoff potential - In Hawaii, the importance of soil type in evaluating P runoff potential was evaluated. A simulated P runoff was studied on two Hawaii soils. A Mollisol and an Oxisol were placed in plastic trays with 1000 mg P/kg as chicken, swine manure or TSP and inclined to create a 5% slope (50 cm long). Sprinklers simulated rainfall and P was measured in the runoff collected. The Oxisol retained much more P than the Mollisol. Amounts of P released to the runoff water varied with source and time: fastest with the inorganic P (treble-superphosphate) and slowest with the composted swine manure. If 1.0 mg/L of total P in runoff is the recommended limit to minimize P pollution, then the Mollisol should not receive high P applications.
At Penn State, the role of P source for runoff potential was evaluated. A rainfall simulation study, following the National Phosphorus Research Project protocol, was conducted with ten biosolids and dairy manure to evaluated P runoff losses. All P-sources were applied at rates to achieve a common plant available N rate (134 kg PAN ha-1) resulting in P application rates ranging from 122 (dairy manure) to 555 (Syracuse N-Viro) kg P ha-1. The results underscore the need to consider the variable water solubility of the biosolids- or manure-P when assessing P loss potential following land application.
Reducing the potential for P runoff was evaluated in many labs with the use of water treatment residuals. - (this research described below also addresses Objective 3). In a greenhouse study conducted by CO State University using simulated buffer strips, the efficacy of WTR to increase the removal of P in surface runoff was determined. Modeling using OPUS2 indicated that about a 10 mm soil-cover thickness of WTR was needed to remove P in an overland-flow system.
The longevity of the P sorption on WTRs was evaluated in a cooperative study with U FL and MI State with lab components of the study being conducted at U FL and field plots being maintained at MI State. At two field sites (established in 1998), soil test P levels have declined with time at all sites, but alum WTR did not contribute to this decrease. At the other four sites (two established in 1999 and two in 2000), some decline in Bray P1 soil test levels was observed and alum WTR amendments significantly decreased soil test P levels compared to unamended control soils. Leaching of soluble P to subsoils is suspected to have contributed to the decreased P levels observed at all sites.
U FL continued efforts to artificially age soil/waste mixtures to determine the long-term stability of P immobilized by WTR additions to soils. This portion of the study is being conducted in FL. Aging is being encouraged in long-term incubations of residuals-amended soils at elevated temperatures. We are examining samples from various field studies, including a long-term study by W-170cooperators in Michigan (Jacobs), where WTRs were applied in 1998 to two sites with long manure application histories to control soluble P levels. The data suggest that there is little reason to believe that WTR-immobilized P will be released over time.
Trace Elements - Work has continued in the group on the behavior and bioavailability of trace elements in soils. This work includes, but is not limited to biosolids amended soils
Se - Two groups, CA, and CO have done research on evaluating and reducing the bioavailability of Se in Soils. In CA, work focused on evaluating the bioavailability of Se through the use of sequential extraction procedures. In addition, the potential to maximize Se volatilization was demonstrated by manipulating the soil environment in wetland mesocosms. Planted mesocosms showed a volatilization rate of 40% while control mesocosms showed a volatilization rate of 23%. CO studied the sorption of selenate and selenite by water treatment residuals with respect to pH. We found selenate sorption decreased with increasing pH, most likely due to increasing net negative charge on WTR. However, the selenite sorption increased with increasing pH, and may be due to the possible presence of calcium carbonate in WTR. Further research is required.
Mo - Plant uptake of Mo continued to be evaluated in OH and PA as additions to the large research effort headed by O?Connor in FL. In OH, uptake of Cu and MO in wheat forage was studied. Forage uptake of Mo and Cu showed temporal variation between years but increased with biosolids application rate. The Cu:Mo ratio of washed forage was > 2.9 and was inversely related to biosolids application rate. Forage Mo was < 2 mg/kg. Unwashed forage had a larger Cu:Mo ratio than washed forage. Forage Mo increased with biosolids application for unwashed forage. However, the Cu:Mo ratio of unwashed forage decreased with increased biosolids application was the unwashed forage Cu:Mo ratio was > 10. Biosolids application had no effect on forage S content that were < 3000 mg/kg. The calculated UC of Mo for winter wheat in Oklahoma of 0.24 (washed forage) and 0.36 (unwashed forage) is less than UC of 0.42 used by U.S. EPA in their risk assessment used for governing land application of biosolids (e.g. Part 503).
As and Pb - Work was conducted at OH to evaluate the bioavailable fraction of total soil As. Arsenic extracted by five commonly used soil extractants was compared with bioavailable arsenic measured in vivo by immature swine (Sus scrofa) dosing trials. Fifteen contaminated soils that contained 233 to 17 500 mg kg?1 arsenic were studied. The strongest relationship between arsenic determined by soil chemical extraction and in vivo bioavailable arsenic was found for hydroxylamine hydrochloride extractant (r = 0.88, significant at the 0.01 probability level). At U WA, Pb and As contaminated soils were incubated with a high Fe biosolids compost, steer manure compost, and WTR. Reductions in both Pb and As bioavailability were measured using the in vitro procedure. The high Fe biosolids compost was very effective in reducing Pb availability with small but significant reductions in As availability observed in some of the soils. However, in certain cases, As availability was increased following compost amendment. This may be related to the high P content of the composts.
Cd and Zn - USDA ARS continued work that was begun at US EPA NMRML on the phytoavailability of Cd and Zn in biosolids amended soils. This work addresses objectives 2 and 3, and is the quantitative basis for the use of biosolids to reduce metal availability at contaminated sites. At USDA two approaches were taken to measure changes in metal adsorption and phytoavailability in soils amended with manures, biosolids, composts, or byproduct. In one, Cd adsorption was measured at several pH levels in unamended and amended soils. Both soil organic and inorganic fractions play a role in Cd adsorption by soils, when biosolids were applied the Fe and Mn oxides provided persistent increase in Cd adsorption by amended soils.
Ecosystem Restoration - Work has also continued on the use of residuals for restoration of disturbed sites. This has extended to include measures of ecosystem function at both restored sites and at biosolids amended sites. This work fell under objectives 2 and 3.
In CO, Denver Metro Wastewater District composted biosolids were applied at rates of 0, 5, 10, 20, 40, and 80 Mg ha-1 to a severely burned, previously forested site near Buffalo Creek, CO to improve soil fertility and help establish seven native, seeded grasses. Following treatment, total biomass of vegetation increased with increasing biosolids application and the percentage of bareground decreased. The application of biosolids to this site has improved soil fertility and plant production, and resulted in enhanced post-fire ecosystem recovery.
At U WA and Purdue, ecosystem function was evaluated on biosolids amended sites. At UWA, the function of frankia on alder roots was evaluated. It was found that commercial N application decreased N fixation by frankia, but biosolids did not. At Purdue, the effect of biosolids addition on ecosystem function as measured by a range of indices including in vitro extractable metals, earthworm mortality and reproduction, and plant germination suggest that biosolids application has no negative effects on a range of functions.
Work on a large, multi-state cooperative project on the phytoavailability of N in biosolids amended soils was completed. The study included laboratory, field and modeling components. The research involved W170 members from Arkansas, Washington State, Michigan, Oregon, and Virginia. The project culminated with the publication of the study?s findings in the Journal of Environmental Quality: Gilmour, J.T., C.G. Cogger, L.W. Jacobs, G.K. Evanylo, and D.M. Sullivan. 2003.

Impacts
- Research provides information on appropriate management of residuals for land application to maintain environmental quality and protect human health.
- Evaluation of nutrient and trace element bioavailabilities in residual-amended field and greenhouse studies. Studies with P in biosolids and other residuals have demonstrated that the behavior of P in biosolids is different from the behavior of P in commercial fertilizers and thus research results obtained with fertilizers cannot be extrapolated to waste treated soils.
- The bioavailability of P in manures and biosolids will vary based on specific properties of the materials. It may be possible to reduce the environmental impact of excess P applications in wastes through targeted soil amendments, a result that may alter regulations regarding P additions to soils in certain states.
- Studies on metals in biosolids amended systems will provide assurance as to the safety of these materials and will also provide the scientific basis for use of these materials for restoration of severely disturbed sites. This approach is gaining acceptance within the Superfund program.
- Long-term field plots provide information on the sustainability of land application practices for biosolids and other residuals. Studies also provide information on the ability of soil amendments including water treatment residuals to reduce bioavailability of waste constituents over extended time frames.
