摘要
This study uses 68 sets of paddy soil and rice grain samples collected from an area of carbonate rocks in Guangxi Province, China, to explore the ecological risks of heavy metals (As, Cd, Cr, Cu, Hg, Pb, Ni, and Zn) in soils from a high background area. We analyzed the concentrations of these heavy metals in soil and grain samples, and their chemical speciation in soil, and use these data to assess the associated ecological risks by means of statistics, a geo-accumulation index, bioconcentration factors (BCF), and correlation analysis. The arithmetic mean values of heavy metals concentrations in soil samples from the study area were (75.8±50.1), (1.91±1.02), (467.0±253.1), (48.5±9.8), (0.21±0.08), (76.2±28.1), (84.2±25.0), and (258.0±122.6) mg•kg-1 for As, Cd, Cr, Cu, Hg, Ni, Pb, and Zn, respectively, which were remarkably higher than of those from other regions within Guangxi Province and China. In comparison to China's soil environmental quality standard risk screening values (GB 15618-2018), the over-standard rates of Cd, As, and Cr were 95.6%, 86.8%, and 69.1%, respectively. In comparison to risk intervention values, the over-standard rates of Cd, As, and Cr were 27.9%, 17.6%, and 5.9%, respectively. Speciation analysis on heavy metals indicated that As, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb, and Zn were mainly found in a residual form, and accounted for>80% of the total concentrations, and had a low bioavailability. The bioactive components (F1+F2+F3) of Cd accounted for 21%, and the bioactivity of Cd was higher than other elements. The potential bioavailable components (F4+F5+F6) of Hg accounted for 44%, with low total concentrations, which are understood to have little potential ecological harm for crops. However, the over-standard rates of Pb, Cd, and Cr in rice grains were only 23.5%, 8.8%, and 2.9%, respectively. Correlation analysis showed that there was no significant correlation between the concentrations of heavy metals in soils and the corresponding rice grains. The mean BCFs of each heavy metal were <0.1, and the BCFs of Hg, Pb, As, Cr, and Ni were <0.05. Overall, we found relatively high concentrations, low activity, and low ecological risks for heavy metals in the study area. For high geological background materials such as carbonate rocks, factors such as metal speciation, biological activity, and crop over-standard rates should be taken into account along with the traditional use of the total amount of heavy metals in a soil as the evaluation standard when formulating pollution control policies. © 2020, Science Press.
