ABSTRACT

In addition to mercury, cadmium, lead, chromium and metalloid arsenic, which are biotoxic heavy metals, the environmental hazards of general heavy metals such as zinc, copper, nickel and cobalt, which are toxic to some extent, have also attracted widespread attention in recent years. Among them, the wastewater discharged from tannery, electroplating and zinc salt production has also caused harmful zinc pollution to the environment. In this study, sodium lignosulfonate with heavy metal adsorption function was used to prepare nano-sodium lignosulfonate preparations by means of nanotechnology, aiming to improve its adsorption rate of heavy metal ions and utilization rate of the preparations to a greater extent, reduce the use of adsorbent materials, reduce the operational burden and cost investment of environmental treatment, and also provide useful exploration and research for the agricultural use of the treated products.The main research works were (1) preparation of nano-sodium lignosulfonate formulations; (2) characterization of morphological structures of nano-sodium lignosulfonate formulations by laser pens, scanning electron microscopy, and optical microscopy; (3) treatment solutions of nano- and non-nano-sodium lignosulfonate formulations for Zn²⁺ adsorption were used to treat wheat seeds, and their effects on wheat germination and seedling growth under Zn ion stress were investigated .The results showed that (1) the prepared nano-adsorbents exhibited homogeneous fine granularity and uniform dispersion with particle size ranging from about 20 nm to 60 nm under room temperature neutral conditions; (2) the adsorption of the nano-formulations was higher than that of the non-nanoproducts under the same conditions. (3) The effect of nano-sodium lignin sulfonate was found to be better than that of non-nanopreparations for the alleviation of Zn stress by seedling trials in wheat, and the best effect was obtained when the addition amount was 30 ml.
