Application of acclimated sewage sludge as a bio-augmentation/bio-stimulation strategy for remediating chlorpyrifos contamination in soil with/without cadmium
Acclimated sewage sludge efficiently enhanced the dissipation of chlorpyrifos in soil. The degradation efficiency of chlorpyrifos was not significantly affected by Cd. The application of ASS greatly influenced the bacterial community structure in soil. The presence of acclimated sewage sludge enhanced the soil biochemical quality. The soil fertility improved after remediation.
