Abstract

In order to select more proper plants for phytoextraction at the heavy metal polluted areas, 11 species of non-edible plants were cultivated at the cadmium(Cd) and Lead(Pb) treated soils and analyzed the content of the absorbed Cd and Pb in each part of plants. Plants include three fibers(Linum usitatissimum, Cannabis sativa, Gossypium spp.), three flowers(Calendula officinalis, Rhododendron lateritium, Portulaca grandiflora), and five trees(Pinus thunbergii, Magnolia kobus, $Populus\;nigra\;{\times}\;P.$ maximowiczii, Euonymus japonica, Fraxinus rhynchophylla). Yield of tree species were higher than that of fiber and flower species. Cd and Pb were highly accumulated in root rather than leaves and stems. The Cd content of plants was in the order Portulaca grandiflora > Calendula officinalis > Gossypium spp. > Linum usitatissimum, Pb was Cannabis sativa > Linum usitatissimum > Fraxinus rhynchophylla. Total absorbed Cd by each plant was in the order $Populus\;nigra\;{\times}\;P.$ maximowiczii > Euonymus japonica > Rhododendron lateritium, but Pb was $Populus\;nigra\;{\times}\;P.$ maximowiczii > Rhododendron lateritium > Euonymus japonica. Total absorbed Cd and Pb contents in plants were negatively correlated with the residual Cd and Pb in the treated soils. It was estimated that $Populus\;nigra\;{\times}\;P.$ maximowiczii, Euonymus japonica, Fraxinus rhynchophylla, and Rhododendron lateritium were the most effective species for phytoextraction in the polluted area considering yield and heavy metal uptake.

중금속 오염토양에 대한 식물복원법(phytoremediation)중 phytoextraction을 적합한 식물종의 탐색을 위하여 비식용식물인 섬유류 3종, 화훼류 3종 및 수목류 5종을 대상으로 Cd과 Pb을 각각 15, $100\;mg\;kg^{-1}$ 으로 조절하여 처리한 토양에서 pot 재배한 후 식물중에 흡수된 함량 및 그 흡수량을 조사하였다. 식물의 건물생산량은 양황철, 물푸레나무, 사철나무 등 수목류가 섬유류 및 화훼류보다 높게 나타났다. 식물의 부위별 Cd 및 Pb함량은 줄기와 잎보다 뿌리에서 높았고, 식물별 Cd 함량은 채송화, 메리골드, 목화, 아마 순으로 높았으며 Pb 함량은 대마 및 아마에서 높게 나타났다. 식물의 Cd 및 Pb 총 흡수량은 양황철, 사철나무, 물푸레나무, 영산홍 순으로 높게 나타났다. 식물의 Cd 및 Pb 총 흡수량은 시험후 토양에 잔류한 Cd, Pb 함량과 고도의 부의 상관을 보였다. 식물의 건물생산량 및 흡수량을 볼 때 양황철, 사철나무, 물푸레나무 및 영산홍 등이 토양정화식물로의 가치가 있다고 생각된다.
