矿化微生物-生物炭修复土壤重金属的效应与机制研究进展

Effects and Mechanisms of Mineralizing Microorganisms–Biochar Composites for Soil Heavy Metal Remediation: A Review

  • 摘要: 土壤重金属污染已成为威胁土地资源安全利用及农业可持续发展的严峻环境问题。矿化微生物与生物炭联合修复技术作为绿色高效的重金属污染治理策略,近年来备受关注,但二者协同作用的内在机制及多因子互作关系尚未得到系统阐明。本文基于文献计量分析方法,评述了矿化微生物与生物炭在土壤重金属固定化中的单独及联合作用机制,重点解析重金属的形态转化路径、土壤微环境调控效应及关键影响因素,并评估其实际应用潜力与面临的挑战。文献综述表明,矿化微生物主要通过生物矿化、胞外络合和生物转化等过程促进重金属向稳定形态转化;生物炭凭借高比表面积、丰富官能团及多孔结构实现重金属高效吸附固定,同时优化土壤理化性质。二者协同可显著促进重金属由有效态向残渣态和有机结合态转化,增强土壤pH与氧化还原电位调控能力,提升微生物代谢活性与定殖效率,修复效果显著优于单一处理。该协同效应受生物炭特性、微生物代谢活力、重金属种类与形态以及土壤环境条件等多因素共同影响。目前,该联合技术已在农田和复合污染场地的修复示范中获得应用,可使作物中重金属含量降低一半以上,但仍存在环境适应性有限、大规模应用成本较高及长期稳定性不确定等挑战。未来研究需聚焦功能菌株与改性生物炭的定向构建,深化微观分子机制解析,促进多技术集成与标准化应用体系的建立,为土壤重金属污染的高效绿色修复提供理论依据与技术方案。

     

    Abstract: Soil heavy metal pollution has emerged as a critical environmental issue that threatens the safe utilization of land resources and the sustainable development of agriculture. The combined remediation technology of mineralizing microorganisms and biochar, as a green and efficient strategy for heavy metal pollution control, has attracted much attention in recent years. However, the intrinsic mechanism of their synergistic effect and the multi-factor interaction relationship have not yet been systematically clarified. This review, based on bibliometric analysis, summarizes the individual and combined mechanisms of mineralizing microorganisms and biochar in the immobilization of soil heavy metals. Emphasis is placed on analyzing the transformation pathways of heavy metal speciation, the regulatory effects on the soil microenvironment, and key influencing factors, while also evaluating the practical application potential and the challenges faced. The literature indicates that mineralizing microorganisms primarily facilitate the conversion of heavy metals into more stable forms through processes such as biomineralization, extracellular complexation, and biotransformation. Biochar, owing to its high specific surface area, abundant functional groups, and porous structure, enables efficient adsorption and fixation of heavy metals while simultaneously improving soil physicochemical properties. The synergy between the two significantly promotes the transformation of heavy metals from available forms to residual and organically bound fractions, enhances the capacity for regulating soil pH and redox potential, increases microbial metabolic activity and colonization efficiency, and yields a remediation performance markedly superior to that of individual treatments. This synergistic effect is jointly influenced by multiple factors such as the characteristics of biochar, the metabolic activity of microorganisms, the types and forms of heavy metals, and soil environmental conditions. At present, this combined technology has been applied in the demonstration of farmland and complex contaminated site remediation, which can reduce the heavy metal content in crops by more than half. However, challenges remain, including limited environmental adaptability, high costs for large-scale application, and uncertain long-term stability. Future research should focus on the targeted construction of functional strains and modified biochar, deepen the analysis of microscopic molecular mechanisms, promote the establishment of multi-technology integration and standardized application systems, and provide a theoretical basis and technical solutions for the efficient and green remediation of soil heavy metal pollution.
