Impacts of Alkaline Stabilized Biosolids Application on the Fate and Transport of Emerging Substances of Concern in Agricultural Soils, Plant Biomass and Groundwater
G.W. Price, Dalhousie University
This project studied how agricultural soils responded to short- and long-term applications of alkaline-stabilized biosolids (ASB), including: the impact of alkaline stabilization on emerging substances of concern transport in soils and water; how emerging substances of concern impacted biological end-point health indicators; and optimal rate and frequency of ASB land applications.
