The bioavailability and bioaccessibility of vanadium in soils

Description: We plan to investigate the behavior of V in contaminated and uncontaminated soils and its potential uptake by agricultural plants. First, the mobility and bioavailability of V in soils will be characterised using sequential extraction and column leaching experiments. Next, pot experiments will be performed with agricultural plants e.g. soy bean and cabbage at different levels of soil V concentrations to quantify the translocation of V in soils to different parts of the plants. The changes of soil enzyme activities will be also highlighted. The knowledge on V behavior in the environment generated here is essential for accurate assessment of the threat of V contamination to human and environmental health, as well as for the development of novel technologies for remediation of V contaminated soils.
