Abstract Background The size of lime material is vital for the efficiency of ameliorating soil acidity, thereby influencing soil biochemical processes. However, the effects of different sized lime material application on soil organic carbon (SOC) mineralization are yet to be elucidated. Therefore, a 35-day incubation experiment was conducted to determine the effects of three particle size fractions (0.5 to 0.25, 0.25 to 0.15, and < 0.15 mm) of dolomite on SOC mineralization of two acidic paddy soils. Results CO2 emission was increased by 3–7%, 11–21%, and 32–49% for coarse-, medium-, and fine-sized dolomite treatments, respectively, compared to the control in both soils. They also well conformed to a first-order model in all treatments, and the estimated decomposition rate constant was significantly higher in the fine-sized treatment than that of other treatments (P < 0.05), indicating that SOC turnover rate was dependent on the dolomite size. The finer particle sizes were characterized with higher efficiencies of modifying soil pH, consequently resulting in higher dissolved organic carbon contents and microbial biomass carbon, eventually leading to higher CO2 emissions. Conclusions The results demonstrate that the size of dolomite is a key factor in regulating SOC mineralization in acidic paddy soils when dolomite is applied to manipulate soil pH.

Contamination of paddy soils with heavy metals and metalloids poses a risk to human health through the food chain. For safe agricultural production in contaminated paddy soils, “in situ” remediation through the unavailability of heavy metals from contaminated soils was investigated in order to develop cost-effective and eco-friendly approaches for soils contaminated with complexed heavy metals (HMs) and metalloids. In the present study, the effectiveness of different soil amendments, including sulfur-containing materials (hair or cysteine), manganese compounds as an antagonist and an oxidant, zeolite and iron oxide as adsorbents, and their combinations through coating or modification, was investigated by a pot experiment with rice plants and chemical analysis. Two levels of each treatment were made, termed X1 and X2, which were a single and double dose of each treatment respectively, while CaCO3 was used as a basal and pH enhancement amendment in all treatments to identify the best combination of the above treatments in the in situ remediation of heavy metals and metalloids. The rice plants were kept under the flooded condition. Results indicated that the bioavailability of As, Cd, Cr, and Pb in soil was significantly decreased with level two (X2) of iron oxide coated with modified hairs (T7X2) followed by level two (X2) of zeolite coated with KMnO4. The iron oxide coated with modified hairs (X2) decreased the concentrations of heavy metals and metalloids in rice plants in the order Pb ˃ As ˃ Cr ˃ Cd by 81%, 80%, 79% and 46%, respectively, followed by zeolite coated with KMnO4 (X2) in the order Pb ˃ As ˃ Cr ˃ Cd by 78%, 76%, 71%, and 31%, respectively, to control. The available content of these elements in soil was decreased in the order As > Cr> Pb > Cd by 67%, 66%, 64% and 60%, respectively, through iron oxide coated with modified hairs, followed by zeolite coated with KMnO4 in the order Pb ˃ Cr ˃ Cd ˃ As by 57%, 53%, 50%, and 46%, respectively, to control, which can explain the decreased bioavailability by these amendments. In addition, the maximum shoot dry and leaf area were noticed in the pots treated with iron oxide coated with modified hairs and zeolite coated with KMnO4. There is potential to use modified hairs (MHs) with iron oxide and KMnO4-coated zeolite as soil amendments to develop a cost-effective and efficient “in situ” remediation technology for As, Cd, Pb, and Cr-contaminated rice paddy soils, especially for the soils with complex contamination by Cd and As.
