Crop yields and chemical alterations in soil treated with tannery waste and hexavalent chromium
01/Dec/2002
This study was carried out in order to evaluate yields of wheat, lettuce and radish, as well as chemical changes in an Oxisoil due to the addition of tannery waste and hexavalent chromium. Microplots in a greenhouse, which consisted of 60 L plastic pots, received the following treatments: control; lime + NPK; primary tannery sludge + PK; chrome-tanned leather shavings + lime + NPK; finished leather shreds + lime + NPK; Cr6+ + lime + NPK; Cr6+ + lime + […]
