Sorption of Natural Siderophores onto Clinoptilolite-Tuff and Its Controlled-Release Characteristics

Open access

Abstract

Iron deficiency-induced chlorosis is a widespread horti-/agricultural problem that can lead to massive crop failures, especially for plants growing on calcareous soils. The most effective agronomical practice to prevent plants from iron deficiency is to apply synthetic Fe-(chelate)-fertilizers to the soil. Because these compounds are usually not biodegradable and, therefore, may become soil contaminants, efficient and environmentally friendly solutions are needed. The present study investigates a novel approach to tackle chlorosis in plants using clinoptilolite-tuff as a carrier substrate for the natural Fe-siderophore ‘coprogen’. The combination of the two substances promises economic and ecological potential to be used as a fertilizer to prevent crop failures triggered by micro-nutritional shortages. Sorption and release experiments were performed in batch and column setups in order to understand the binding characteristics; analyses were carried out using ICP-MS, HPLC, XRD, and SEM, respectively. Results show the highest sorption capacity of coprogen (92.8%) and corresponding Fe (90.2%) on clinoptilolite-tuff at pH 4 within 30 min as well as the efficient release of coprogen at pH 8, mimicking alkaline soil conditions (88% of the sorbed coprogen is released from the tuff). The gained data suggest that coprogen is bound onto the clinoptilolite-tuff through surface-mediated sorption based on electrostatic interactions.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
