Use of PhytotoxkitTM Test in Assessment of Toxicity of Two Types of Sewage Sludge
Original language description
The investigations aimed to determine a possible application of PhytotoxkitTM biotest for the assessment of soils amended with sewage sludge. The experiment was performed in a laboratory on samples of sewage sludge. The test bases on estimation of germination and early growth inhibition of sweet sorghum (Sorghum saccharatum L.). Two kinds of sewage sludge: dewatered and anaerobically stabilized sludge with dry matter content of about 24%, and dewatered sludge with dry matter content of about 92%. The results indicate that the tested samples of sewage sludge are toxic. Growth inhibition (%) at the studied samples ranged from 94.97% to 100%. Phytotoxkit is a good method to evaluate the toxicity of sludge's, and can be a valuable addition to the physico-chemical methods.
