Cd-contaminated greenhouse screening was conducted from 2015 to 2017. In September 2017, comparative tests of eight treatments were performed in September 2017, and a selective test was performed in September 2018. The results of the screening of contaminated areas indicated that the distributions of over-standard sites and Cd content were significantly different. Greenhouse No. 4, in which the highest over-standard rate was 83.33% and the average content of Cd in soil was 0.535 mg/kg, was used as a comparative test experimental site for eight treatments. Greenhouse No. 1 was selected as the optimum test greenhouse for selective testing, with three plots having average Cd concentrations of 0.530, 0.568 and 0.792 mg/kg. The 8 months following comparative treatment showed that the content of available Cd following the treatment of rice biochar+hydroxyapatite+deeper ploughing(treatment T6) was reduced by 32.55% and 24.96% compared with the CK(the control) and 2 months following treatment, respectively. The content of available Cd using rice biochar+KH2PO4+deeper ploughing(treatment T7) treatment decreased by 47.88% and 31.00% compared with the CK and 2 months following treatment. The selective test results showed that in rice biochar+hydroxyapatite+deeper ploughing: the total Cd content of decreased from 0.489 to 0.372 mg/kg(23.86% lower), compared with the CK, and the mean content of available Cd decreased by 10.71% after 8 months, which was the lowest available Cd measured(0.133 mg/kg). In addition, the bean plant Cd content, bioconcentration factor(BCF) and translocation coefficient(TF) decreased by 15.86%, 23.68% and 25.77%, respectively. Rice biochar+hydroxyapatite+deeper ploughing is a favoured technology for the remediation of Cd-contaminated protected vegetable fields.展开更多
