Abstract
This study developed novel active capping systems with recycling convenience using ferrihydrite (Fh) combined with magnetite (Mag), and investigated the effectiveness and mechanism for the restriction of endogenous phosphorus movement from sediment into overlying water (OW) by the combined use of Fh and Mag. The Fh/Mag combined amendment effectively hindered endogenous phosphorus release from sediment to OW in dissolved oxygen (DO)-deficit environment, and the immobilization of diffusion gradient in thin film-labile phosphorus (LPDGT) and mobile phosphorus in the sediment played a key role in the control of endogenous phosphorus liberation by the Fh/Mag combined amendment. Combined capping sediment with Fh and Mag effectively hindered endogenous phosphorus release from sediment to OW in anoxic environment, and the inactivation of LPDGT in the upper sediment played a key part in the control of sediment phosphorus release by the Fh/Mag mixture capping. The stability of phosphorus immobilized by the Fh/Mag combined covering layer was related to its construction way, and the majority (around 90%) of P immobilized to the Fh/Mag mixture covering layer had low risk of release in common pH (5-9) and DO-deficit environments. The Fh/Mag mixture amendment or capping did not increase the risk of sediment iron release, and it also did not produce a large impact on the diversity and richness of bacterial community in the sediment. The combined utilization of Fh and Mag as a composite amendment or capping material to prevent the internal phosphorus from being moved to OW can make full use of their respective advantages. The Fh/Mag mixture capping wrapped by permeable fabric has high potential to reduce the risk of endogenous phosphorus from sediment into OW due to its advantages of high internal phosphorus release suppression efficiency, environmental friendliness, application convenience and sustainability.

Abstract
The field experiment study investigated the effect of lime (L), manure compost (M), combination of lime and manure (LM), and combinations of lime with four kinds of passivators (LP1, LP2, LP3, and LP4) on the bioavailability of cadmium (Cd) in soil and Cd accumulation in rice plants. These four passivating products were composed of organic and inorganic compounds such as silicon-sulfhydryl group, CaO, SiO2, and so on. The results indicated that the application of these amendments improved soil pH, organic matter content, and cation exchange capacity (CEC) by 0.19-0.73 unit, 0.6-8.2%, and 5.7-38.9%, respectively; meanwhile, decreased soil acid-extractable Cd by 4.0-13.9% compared with before remediation. Alleviating Cd stress to rice also resulted in a significant increase in rice grains yield, whereas the LP4 showed an increment of 15.8-27.6%. Among these amendments, LP4 had a relatively high effectiveness, it promoted the decrease of extractable Cd by 13.9% and the increase of residual Cd by 8.1%; meanwhile, the bioconcentration factor of rice grain in LP4 decreased by 71.3%. The high pH, CEC, and rich functional groups in amendments might cause soil Cd transform from mobile fraction to residual fraction, and the cation ions in amendments also competed with Cd ions due to the antagonism. Taken all of these effects, the amendments alleviated Cd pollution in soil-rice system, decreasing Cd migration from soil to grain. In future, the long-term field experiment will need to be done for verify the long-term effect of soil amendments.

Abstract
In situ remediation technology applied aims to not only decrease cadmium (Cd) and arsenic (As) uptake by rice but also improve soil health and rice quality in contaminated paddy soils. Here the effects of a combined amendment, consisting of limestone, iron powder, silicon fertilizer, and calcium-magnesium-phosphate fertilizer, with three application rates (0, 450, and 900 g m-2) on soil health, rice root system, and brown rice quality were compared in moderately versus highly Cd and As co-contaminated paddy fields. After the amendment application, soil pH, cation exchange capacity, four kinds of soil enzyme activities increased (sucrase, urease, acid phosphatase, and catalase), and concentrations of leached Cd/As decreased, as measured by the DTPA (diethylene triamine pentaacetic acid) and TCLP (toxicity characteristic leaching procedure). Changes in the above soil indicators promoted soil health. In both fields, the dithionite-citrate-bicarbonate (DCB)-Fe and DCB-Mn concentration in iron plaque increased and root length became longer. Changes in the above root system indicators reduced the root system's absorption of Cd and As but increased that of nutrients. Under 900 g m-2 treatment, the Cd concentration in brown rice of two sites decreased by 55.8% and 28.9%, likewise inorganic As (iAs) decreased by 50.0% and 21.1%, whereas essential amino acids increased by 20.4% and 20.0%, respectively. Furthermore, the Cd and iAs concentrations in brown rice were <0.2 mg kg-1 (maximum contaminant level of Cd and iAs in the Chinese National Food Safety Standards GB2762-2017 for brown rice) under the 900 g m-2 in the moderately contaminated field. These results suggest the combined amendment can improve soil health and brown rice quality in the moderately and highly Cd- and As-co-contaminated paddy soils, offering potential eco-friendly and efficient remediation material for applications in such polluted paddy soils.

Abstract
Farmland soils that surround a historical zinc smelting area in northwestern Guizhou, China, are characterized by high levels of heavy metal accumulation. Previous studies have mainly focused on the potential risk evaluations of heavy metals in soil and crops. However, at present, the effects of amendment applications on the bioavailability of heavy metals and on microbial community in the heavily contaminated soils of the mining region are still unclear. A pot experiment was conducted to determine the effect of applying a combined amendment (e.g. lime, sepiolite, and vermicompost) on the diversity and composition of microbial community in the contaminated soil. The results showed that the contents of DTPA- and TCLP-extractable heavy metals (e.g. Cd, Pb, and Zn) decreased and that the pH, SWC, EC, and soil available nutrient (e.g. AN, AP, and AK) contents increased after the application of the combined amendment. Furthermore, application of the combined amendment decreased the diversity of soil bacterial and fungal communities and increased the relative abundances of the dominant bacterial and fungal communities such as Proteobacteria, Bacteroidetes, and Ascomycota; however, the relative abundances of Acidobacteria and Actinobacteria decreased. Redundancy analysis (RDA) and structural equation model (SEM) analysis showed that the bioavailability of heavy metals decreased and that soil physicochemical characteristics improved and had positive or negative effects on the diversity and composition of soil microbial community.

Abstract
Selenium (Se), iron (Fe), and humic acid (HA) are beneficial fertilizers that inhibit cadmium (Cd) uptake in crops and are crucial for agricultural yields as well as human health. However, the joined effect of Se, Fe, and HA on Cd uptake in rice are still poorly understood. Therefore, a hydroponic culture experiment was established to evaluate the combined effect of Se (Se4+ or Se6+), Fe, and HA on the biomass, Cd uptake, and Cd translocation of/in rice seedlings. Compared to Se6+ application, Se4+ application in most treatments resulted in lower Cd translocations from roots to shoots, leading to a significant decrease in shoot Cd concentrations. Compared to the treatments with Se4+ or Fe2+ application, joined application of Se4+ and Fe2+ inhibited Cd uptake in shoots by decreasing Cd adsorption onto (iron plaque) and uptake by roots, and alleviating Cd translocation from root to shoot. Compared to the treatments with Se6+ or Fe2+ application, joined application of Se6+ and Fe2+ inhibited Cd uptake in shoots by sequestering (retaining) Cd onto root surface (iron plaque). HA inhibited Cd uptake in all treatments by decreasing the bioavailability of Cd in the nutrient solution through complexation. The simultaneous application of Se, Fe, and HA decreased the shoot Cd concentrations the most, followed by the combined application of two fertilizers and their individual application; the mean shoot Cd concentration in the Fe-SeIV-HA2 treatment was the lowest among all the treatments, at only 11.39 % of those in the control treatments. The 3-way ANOVA results indicated that the Cd concentrations in shoots were significantly affected by Se, Fe, HA, and certain of their interactions (Fe×Se and Se×HA) (p< 0.05). The above findings suggest that the joined application of Se, Fe, and HA ameliorated Cd uptake mainly by inhibiting Cd adsorption onto (iron plaque) and uptake by roots and the translocation from roots to shoots (Fe×Se4+), retaining (sequestering) Cd in iron plaque (Fe×Se6+), and decreasing Cd availability in nutrient solution (HA).

Abstract
Cadmium (Cd) stress is a serious concern in agricultural soils worldwide, and increasing accumulation and subsequent transfer to humans via the food chain can have potentially harmful effects. In this study, field experiments were conducted to examine the uptake and translocation of Cd in rice, changes in the soil Cd speciation, and the subsequent effect on Cd accumulation in rice under combined organic (farmyard manure and crop straw) and inorganic (sepiolite, lime, and calcium-magnesium phosphate) soil amendments. The results showed that farmyard manure combined with sepiolite or lime and straw combined with lime or calcium-magnesium phosphate reduced the Cd translocation from the rice roots to the straw and the grains, significantly decreasing the Cd accumulation in brown rice. In addition, straw combined with sepiolite, lime, or calcium-magnesium phosphate reduced the Cd accumulation in brown rice but increased the Cd translocation from the roots to the straw by 37.8-279.3% compared with the control. Organic-inorganic amendments also decreased the soil exchangeable Cd and increased the organic-bound Cd by more than 40%. Fe-Mn oxide-bound Cd also increased but varied with growth. Cd accumulation in brown rice showed a significant positive relationship with soil exchangeable Cd at 90 days after transplantation, while at 30 days, the increase in Fe-Mn oxide- and organic-bound Cd was found to be the key factor in reducing the Cd accumulation in rice. These findings suggest that straw (under rice-rape rotation) and farmyard manure (under rice-wheat rotation) combined with sepiolite or lime are widely applicable as agronomic control techniques aimed at lowering Cd pollution.

Abstract
Soil cadmium (Cd) contamination in China has become a serious concern due to its high toxicity to human health through food chains. A pot experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of hydrated lime (L), hydroxyapatite (H) and organic fertilizer (F) alone or in combination to remedy a mild (DY) and a moderate (YX) Cd contaminated agricultural soil under rice-wheat rotation. Results showed that crops grain yield and Cd concentration, soil pH, CaCl2 extractable Cd and Cd speciation were markedly affected by the amendments. In both cropping seasons, hydrated lime and hydroxyapatite significantly immobilized soil Cd, and hydroxyapatite, organic fertilizer significantly increased grain yield. Hydrated lime mainly increased soil carbonates bound Cd fractions resulted from 16.7% to 36.2% and from 16.8% to 28.3%, and hydroxyapatite increased Fe/Mn oxides Cd fractions from 19.3% to 33.4% and from 31.4% to 42.1% in the DY and YX soils, respectively; while organic fertilizer slightly increased soil exchangeable and organic matter bound Cd fractions. Besides, combined amendments contain alkaline materials and organic materials have the potential to decrease grain Cd and increase grain yield simultaneously. Therefore, in view of the effects of amendments on grain yield and Cd concentration, the cost as well as the potential benefits expected, combined amendments like hydrated lime + organic fertilizer, hydrated lime + hydroxyapatite + organic fertilizer are recommended in practical application. Mechanisms of Cd immobilization affected by amendments are mainly attributed to the changes in soil Cd availability and crops root uptake rather than internal translocation in plants.

Abstract
In order to study the persistence of a combined amendment (LS, limestone+sepiolite) for remedying paddy soil polluted with the heavy metals Pb and Cd, a three-year in-situ experiment was conducted in a paddy soil near a mining area in southern Hunan, China. LS was applied at rates of 0, 2, 4, and 8g/kg (w/w); rice was subsequently planted for the three consecutive years of 2012 (first season), 2013 (second season), and 2014 (third season). Experimental results indicated that LS significantly increased soil pH values for all three seasons, and the enhancement ranked as follows: first season>second season>third season. Under the experimental conditions, the effect of LS on decreasing exchangeable concentrations of soil Pb and Cd was as follows: first season (97.6-99.8% for Pb and 88.3-98.9% for Cd)>second season (80.7-97.7% for Pb and 28.3-88.0% for Cd)>third season (32.6-97.7% for Pb and 8.3-71.4% for Cd); the effect of LS on reducing Pb concentrations in brown rice was: first season (73.5-81.2%)>third season (29.6-68.1%)>second season (0-9.7%), and that for reducing Cd concentrations in brown rice was third season (72.7-81.0%)>first season (56.1-66.8%)>second season (20.9-32.3%). For all three seasons, the effect of LS on reducing Cd content in brown rice was better than that for Pb. The highest translocation factors for Pb and Cd were from rice straw to husk, implying that the husk of rice plants was the main organ in which heavy metals accumulated. The effect of LS for decreasing soil exchangeable Cd content was relatively persistent, but that for Pb gradually decreased with time, implying that LS was more suitable for the long-term remediation of Cd-polluted soil than Pb-polluted soil.

Abstract
Stabilization of heavy metals in situ was investigated. Two combined amendments (LS, limestone+sepiolite; HZ, hydroxyhistidine+zeolite) were applied at ratios of 0.2%, 0.4%, and 0.8% (w/w) to paddy soil with multi-metal (Pb, Cd, Cu, and Zn) contamination. The effects of these two combined amendments on heavy metal bioavailability in soil, and on uptake and accumulation of heavy metals in rice plants were investigated. Application of LS and HZ significantly increased soil pH values and cation exchange capacity contents, and resulted in a reduction in exchangeable fraction of metals and in extract metal concentrations of amended soils through toxicity characteristic leaching procedure (TCLP). LS and HZ obviously inhibited uptake and accumulation of Pb, Cd, Cu, and Zn in rice plants. Compared with the control soil, concentrations of Pb, Cd, Cu, and Zn in brown rice were decreased by 10.6-31.8%, 16.7-25.5%, 11.5-22.1%, and 11.7-16.3%, respectively, as a result of 0.2% to 0.8% addition of LS, and decreased by 5.1-40.8%, 16.7-20.0%, 8.1-16.2%, and 13.3-21.7%, respectively, as a result of 0.2-0.8% addition of HZ. Significant positive linear correlations were found between heavy metal concentrations in TCLP extracts and those in rice tissues except for Pb. Extracting heavy metals with TCLP was a more suitable method for estimating heavy metal bioavailability concentrations of amended soil than exchangeable fraction of heavy metals, because the latter underestimated heavy metal bioavailability. These results demonstrate that LS and HZ could be effective in reducing heavy metal bioavailability and accumulation in rice grown on multi-metal-contaminated soils.
