Biochar-mediated sorption of antibiotics in pig manure.
Journal of Hazardous Materials 2018 October 30
Using manure contaminated with antibiotics as fertilizer is a primary source of soil pollution with antibiotics and concomitantly with antibiotic resistance genes (ARG). Bioavailable antibiotics trigger further ARG amplification during manure storage. Consequently it is aimed to facilitate the immobilization of antibiotics in manure. To this end, five biochars derived from pine cone (BCP), rice husk, sewage sludge, digestate and Miscanthus were tested as additional sorbents in liquid pig manure for sulfamethazine, ciprofloxacin, oxytetracycline and florfenicol. Non-linear sorption was best-fit using the Freundlich isotherm (R2 > 0.82) and the pseudo-second-order model best described sorption kinetics (R2 > 0.94). Antibiotics' sorption onto manure increased in the order sulfamethazine < florfenicol < ciprofloxacin < oxytetracycline. Admixtures of BCP to manure changed the order to sulfamethazine < oxytetracycline < florfenicol = ciprofloxacin. Generally, with the addition of biochar, sorption coefficients of florfenicol increased most (by factors>2.7) followed by sulfamethazine and ciprofloxacin. Yet, oxytetracycline was mostly mobilized probably due to competitive adsorption. Effects depended on the proportion of biochar added and the type of biochar, whereby plant-derived biochar exhibited better immobilization of antibiotics. Depending on the type and portion of biochar, admixtures to manure can be used to lower the mobility and hence bioavailability of fenicols, fluoroquinolones and sulfonamides.
