Effect of Wheat Straw and Its Biochar Addition on Surface Electrochemical Characteristics of Loessal Soil
Soil surface electrochemical characteristics are important basis for soil fertility. Studies on the effect of wheat straw and its biochar addition on the soil surface electrochemical properties can provide important theoretical and practical basis for improving the quality of cultivated land
sustainable utilization and reducing soil erosion. Through indoor constant temperature culture experiment
11 treatments were set up: control (CK)
1% straw (J1)
3% straw (J3)
5% straw (J5)
7% straw (J7)
10% straw (J10)
1% biochar (S1)
3% biochar (S3)
5% biochar (S5)
7% biochar (S7)
10% biochar (S10). Soil samples were collected after 10 months
then determined for surface electrochemical parameters by the method of combined analysis of surface properties
including surface charge number (SCN)
specific surface area (SSA) and surface charge density(σ0)
surface potential (φ0)
and surface electric field intensity (E0). The relationships between surface electrochemical properties and soil physical and chemical properties were analyzed by redundancy analysis. The results showed that: (1) After applying straw and biochar
soil carbonate content decreased
while soil organic carbon (SOC)
electrical conductivity
total nitrogen (TN) and carbon nitrogen ratio (C/N) increased. The addition of straw could reduce the pH of loessal soil
while increase the pH. (2) With the increase of straw application rates
Zeta potential decreased. After applying biochar
Zeta potential of each treatment was lower than that of CK
but Zeta potential increased with the increase of biochar application rates in general. (3) The SSA and SCN of soils increased with the increase of straw and biochar application rates. Compared with CK
the SSA of J10 and S10 increased by 114.0% and 98.1%; and SCN of J10 and S10 increased by 80.8% and 88.3%
respectively. Application of straw could reduce the surface charge density of soils. The σ0 for straw-added soils was reduced by 5.5%~15.5% compared with that in CK. A small amount of biochar application could increase soil σ0 compared with that in CK. On the whole
the σ0 decreased with the increase of biochar application rates. When the amount of biochar was more than 5%
σ0 for biochar-added soils was less than CK. (4) The results of redundancy analysis showed that SOC was the most important factor affecting the soil surface electrochemical properties and the explained amounts were 88.1% and 89.5% for straw and biochar addition
respectively. The application of straw and biochar could significantly increase the content of organic carbon and improve the basic physical and chemical properties of the Loessal soil. The SSA and SCN of soils increased while the surface charge density decreased with the increase of straw and biochar application rates. The content of organic carbon was the main controlling factor of the surface electrochemical properties.
