摘要

Abstract Hydrochars as carbonaceous amendments rich in porous structures and nutrients can be used as promising slow-release fertilizers and soil health amendments. Yet, the performance of hydrochars derived from different feedstocks in improving crop plant growth and soil phosphorus (P) availability is not well understood. Here, a batch of sewage sludge (SS) and chicken manure (CM) derived hydrochars (SSCs and CMCs) were produced at 125 and 225 °C (SS125/225 and CM125/225) to investigate their characteristics and performances in improving the seedling growth of two representative crops, soybean ( Glycine max ) and corn ( Zea mays ), as well as the P availability in an acidic agricultural soil in comparison with triple super phosphate (TSP), a conventional P fertilizer. Compared with CMCs, SSCs with more porous and rougher surfaces contained relatively lower contents of carbon (C; 32.3–33.3%), hydrogen (H; 3.9–4.69%), and potassium (K; 29.2–51 mg g −1 ), but higher contents of P (37.4–85.4%) and nitrogen (N; 2.26–4.9%), as well as more O-containing and N-containing functional groups. The impacts of hydrochars on soybean and corn growth showed distinct variations. The application of SSCs showed little effect on soybean growth (i.e., biomass, chlorophyl contents, and number of leaves), while CMCs significantly increased its total dry biomass by 23.2–66.2%. For corn, both SSCs and CMCs increased the total dry biomass by 32.8–92.4% and 21.8–69.7%, respectively, compared to those in the un-amended soils. In addition, compared with the higher temperature hydrochars (SS225 and CM225), the lower temperature ones (SS125 and CM125) increased the total dry biomass by 24.6% and 34.9% for soybean and 44.8% and 39.3% for corn, respectively. The significant improvement in crop growth by hydrochars was mainly due to the direct nutrient supply (particularly P) by the hydrochars, which was supported by the increased soil and shoot P concentrations. Moreover, hydrochar application led to a rise in soil water soluble P (WSP) levels. However, as time progressed, these levels fell due to the fixation and adsorption of P via precipitation, electrostatic attraction, and ion exchange on the hydrochars. Contrarily, TSP maintained persistently high soil WSP levels, increasing the leaching risk of P through the soil profile. Our results provide direct evidence for hydrochars as slow-release P fertilizers to enhance crop growth and production and give better insights for producing functionalized P-rich chars as an alternative to chemical P fertilizers to maintain sustainable agricultural production.
