RESUMO

Soil is one of the largest reservoirs of microbial diversity in nature. Although soil management is vital for agricultural purposes, intensive practices can have a significant impact on fertility, microbial community, and resistome. Thus, the aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of an intensive soil management system on the chemical attributes, composition and structure of prevalent bacterial communities, and presence and abundance of antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs). The chemical characterization, bacterial diversity and relative abundance of ARGs were evaluated in soils from areas of intensive vegetable cultivation and forests. Results indicate that levels of nutrients and heavy metals were higher in soil samples from cultivated areas. Similarly, greater enrichment and diversity of bacterial genera was detected in agricultural areas. Of the 18 target ARGs evaluated, seven were detected in studied soils. The oprD gene exhibited the highest abundance among the studied genes and was the only one that showed a significantly different prevalence between areas. The oprD gene was identified only from soil of the cultivated areas. The blaSFO, erm(36), oprD and van genes, in addition to the pH, showed greater correlation with in soil of cultivated areas, which in turn exhibited higher contents of nutrients. Thus, in addition to changes in chemical attributes and in the microbial community of the soil, intensive agricultural cultivation systems cause a modification of its resistome, reinforcing the importance of the study of antimicrobial resistance in a One Health approach.

RESUMO

The relationship between bacterial diversity and the bioavailability of nutrients, toxic metals and the herbicide oxyfluorfen in a tropical vegetable growing area was evaluated. The study was conducted in a vegetable growing area located in the mountainous region of Rio de Janeiro (Brazil), and samples were collected in areas of vegetable cultivation and areas of environmental reserve. Fertility analyses and determination of the pseudototal levels of toxic metals in the soil samples were performed. The profile of the soil bacterial community was determined by amplification of the 16S rRNA gene and separation by DGGE. The results showed that the levels of toxic metals and elements associated with soil fertility were higher in vegetable production areas. These differences in the physical and chemical characteristics of the soil favored the presence of a greater number of OTUs in the cultivation areas (17.3-27 OTUs) than in the areas of environmental reserve (13-22 OTUs). Therefore, this study demonstrates that the presence of toxic metals and the herbicide oxyfluorfen and the increase in fertility in soils in areas with intensive vegetable cultivation resulting from the intensive management adopted in these areas promotes a differentiation of the bacterial profiles in soils in tropical vegetable growing areas.

RESUMO

This study evaluated the levels of heavy metals in the soil and castor bean plant after fertilization with sewage sludge (SS) subjected to different stabilization processes. The study was conducted in a Haplic Cambisol with the following treatments: control (CO), fertilization with solarized sewage sludge (SSS), composted sewage sludge (CSS), vermi composted sewage sludge (VSS), limed sewage sludge (LSS), and mineral fertilizer (MF). The experimental design included a subdivided plot scheme with fertilization being the primary factor and soil layers or leaf parts being the secondary factor. The data obtained were analyzed using analysis of variance and the Scott-Knott test with 5% significance. Fertilization with SSS, CSS, and LSS led to the highest increase in Zn in the soil, mainly in the surface layer. In the leaf tissues, Zn and Cu levels were higher with the CO and SSS treatments, whereas the Ni level was higher with SSS, CSS, VSS, and MF treatments. In general, Zn and Cu levels were higher in the leaf limb than in the petiole, whereas Ni, Pb, and Cr levels were higher in the petiole than in the leaf limb. In any case, no symptoms of toxicity in the plants and no risk of soil contamination were observed with any of the fertilization treatments.

O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar os teores de metais pesados no solo e na planta de mamoneira em resposta à adubação com lodo de esgoto (LE) submetido a diferentes processos de estabilização. O experimento foi desenvolvido em Cambissolo Háplico com os tratamentos: testemunha, adubação com LE solarizado, LE compostado, LE vermicompostado, LE caleado e adubação mineral. O delineamento experimental foi em esquema de parcelas subdivididas, sendo as adubações o fator primário e as camadas do solo ou as partes da folha o fator secundário. Os dados obtidos foram submetidos à análise de variância e teste de Scott-Knott a 5% de probabilidade. No solo, as adubações com LE solarizado, compostado e caleado promoveram os maiores incrementos dos teores de Zn, principalmente na camada superficial. No tecido foliar, os teores de Zn e Cu foram mais elevados na testemunha e no LE solarizado, enquanto o Ni foi mais elevado nos LE solarizado, compostado, vermicompostado e na adubação mineral. De modo geral, os maiores teores de Zn e Cu ocorreram no limbo foliar em comparação ao pecíolo, enquanto os teores de Ni, Pb e Cr foram mais elevados no pecíolo do que no limbo foliar. Contudo, não foram constatados sintomas de toxidez nas plantas e nenhum risco de contaminação do solo com os diferentes tipos de adubações realizadas.

RESUMO

The impact of pig slurry (PS) application on the structural dynamics of humic substances (HS) and on the mobility of Cu, Zn, Ni, and Pb in a dystrophic Red Nitosol planted with winter forage grasses was evaluated. After four PS applications, the humic acids (HA) and fulvic acids (FA) were characterized by spectroscopy techniques allied to chemometrics methods. The metals contents in soil, in HS and in the tissues of plant were quantified. PS application increases the total organic carbon, especially the nonhumic carbon, which contribute to increase FA content. The carbon in FA and HA increases with the highest PS dose applied, especially aliphatic structures in FA and aromatic structures in HA. The amount of Pb and Cu in FA and HA increases respectively, as well as Cu, Zn, Ni, and Pb bioavailable. PS applications increase the biomass production in grasses and the metals content accumulated in the tissues. Our study shows that the PS application modifies the structure of SOM, incorporating fragments, and modifying its dynamics, which regulates the dynamics and the accumulation of metals in soils and plants. The association of metals with soluble structures seems to inactivate their toxicity and does not affect plant growth.

RESUMO

The aim of the present study is to assess soil Cd and Pb contamination in kale (Brassica oleracea var. acephala) production sites in mountain agroecosystem, as well as its potential risk to human health. The study was carried out within 24 kale-production sites located in mountainous region of Rio de Janeiro (Brazil). Soil, plant, and fertilizer samples were collected in all assessed properties. Pseudo-total and bioavailable soil Cd and Pb content and their concentration and amount accumulated in plants were analyzed. The recorded results were used to calculate the pollution index. Risks to human health associated with kale consumption were assessed by comparing the limits set by the Brazilian regulating agency and by calculating estimated daily intake (EDI), noncarcinogenic target hazard quotient (THQ), and carcinogenic risk factor (CRF). Soil Cd and Pb enrichment was observed. Inappropriate management adopted in the assessed sites and terrain slope and the intensive use of mineral (phosphate and potassium) and organic (poultry litter) fertilizers were the main factors contributing to increase soil Cd and Pb pseudo-total and bioavailability contents. Most Cd and Pb contents in leaves, in natura, exceed the maximum values set by the Brazilian regulating agency. The present EDI, THQ, and CRF results recorded for these metals were within the tolerable ranges.

RESUMO

Clubroot disease, caused by Plasmodiophora brassicae, limits the production of Brassica spp. worldwide. Little is known about the factors related to the development of the disease in kale (Brassica oleracea var. acephala) plants and in crops in mountainous areas under tropical conditions. This study examined the severity of clubroot in kale crops as well as identify potential flaws in management and the soil and relief factors related to its occurrence. The study was conducted in 24 kale fields in the mountainous region of Rio de Janeiro (Brazil). Soil and kale growth management practices adopted in the region were identified and samples of soil and plants were collected. Subsequently, soil and relief attributes, disease severity, biomass and nutrient and Al contents and accumulation in the plants were determined. There was a high spread of the pathogen in the areas. Inappropriate and recurrent practices in the region were detected, e.g., sequential cultivation of host species, low adoption of soil fertility analysis and liming and conservation practices, and community use of agricultural machinery and implements without prior cleaning. The disease was associated with more acidic soils, subject to greater water accumulation and with high levels of Al³+ as well as with higher Al contents and accumulation in the roots. Management practices must be adopted in the region to reduce the potential inoculum of P. brassicae and to increase soil fertility.

A hérnia das crucíferas, causada por Plasmodiophora brassicae, é limitante à produção de Brassica spp. em todo o mundo. Pouco se conhece sobre os fatores relacionados ao desenvolvimento da doença em plantas de couve-comum (Brassica oleracea var. acephala) e em cultivos em áreas de montanha sob condições tropicais. Objetivou-se avaliar a severidade da hérnia das crucíferas em lavouras de couve-comum, identificar potenciais falhas no manejo e os fatores de solo e relevo relacionados a sua ocorrência. O estudo foi conduzido em 24 lavouras de couve-comum da Região Serrana do Rio de Janeiro (Brasil). Registraram-se as práticas de manejo do solo e da couve-comum adotadas na região e coletaram-se amostras de solo e plantas. Em seguida, determinaram-se os atributos do solo e do relevo, a severidade da doença, biomassa e os teores e acúmulo de nutrientes e Al nas plantas. Observou-se alta disseminação do patógeno nas áreas. Foram identificadas práticas inadequadas e recorrentes na região como o cultivo sequencial de espécies hospedeiras, baixa adoção a análise de fertilidade, calagem e de medidas de conservação do solo, e o uso comunitário de máquinas e implementos agrícolas sem limpeza prévia. Identificou-se associação da doença com solos mais ácidos, sujeitos a maior acúmulo de água e com elevados teores de Al³+; e a maior teor e acúmulo de Al nas raízes. Práticas de manejo devem ser adotadas na região visando a redução do potencial de inóculo de P. brassicae e o aumento da fertilidade do solo.

RESUMO

Herbicide application is a practice commonly used in agricultural systems because it is an efficient method of weed control. An inherent characteristic of some herbicides used in mountain agriculture, such as oxyfluorfen, is high adsorption to soil organic matter (SOM). Thus, intensive management that changes the quantity and quality of SOM, such as soil tillage and the massive application of organic fertilizers such as poultry litter, may favor soil contamination by this herbicide and alter its dynamics in the environment. Therefore, this study aimed to characterize the structures of humic substances (HSs) in the soil of forest areas and areas with intensive production of vegetables, relating them to the accumulation of the herbicide oxyfluorfen in tropical mountain agroecosystems. Organic carbon content was quantified in HSs, humic acid (HAs) were structurally characterized by CP/MAS 13C-NMR spectroscopy, and the oxyfluorfen molecule was detected and quantified using the QuEChERS residue detection method with subsequent analysis by LC-MS/MS. Oxyfluorfen was not detected in the forest areas, but it was detected in the vegetable growing areas at points with the lowest slope and high contents of organic matter and clay, with values of up to 0.13 mg kg-1. The intensification in the SOM mineralization process, promoted by the intensive management adopted in the vegetable growing areas, resulted in a 16.46% reduction in COT, a 58.84% reduction in the carbon content in the form of SH and a reduction in the structures that give recalcitrance to the HA molecule (CAlkyl-H,R, CCOO-H,R, CAromatic-H,R, and CAromatic-O) when compared to those values in the forest area, presenting HAs with more aliphatic and labile properties. Thus, due to the structural characteristics of the HAs in the vegetable production areas, the herbicide oxyfluorfen showed a close relationship with the more aliphatic oxygenated structures, namely, CAlkyl-O,N, CAlkyl-O and CAlkyl-di-O.

RESUMO

Studies to assess variability factors of heavy metals in soils are essential to understand their behavior in the environment and for the assessment of contaminated areas. In this context, this research aimed to study the factors that influence the variability of heavy metal levels and their bioavailability in pasture areas in the Alturas de Nazareno region, Mayabeque, Cuba, as well as the transfer to plants. Forty-five points were distributed in a natural pasture and at two depths (0-20 and 20-40 cm) as a function of relief and soil type. Pseudo-total heavy metal contents were determined according to method 3051A of USEPA, geochemical fractionation according to the Community Bureau of Reference method, and plant digestion according to method 3052 of USEPA. Soil samples were separated into two groups, according to cluster analysis. The type of soil associated with the pH and Ca attributes were the factors that most influenced the variability of the total and bioavailable levels of metals in natural pasture soils in the region of Alturas de Nazareno. Group 1 showed the lowest heavy metal contents and the highest pH and calcium values, which were predominantly associated with carbonate soils. Group 2 had the highest contents of heavy metals and Fe, corresponding mainly to the soil Ferralítico Rojo. The concentration of metals in plants was directly related to their bioavailable content in the soil, where G2 represents the group with the highest risk of transferring metals to the food chain.

RESUMO

The current study was developed to evaluate agronomic efficiency and food security of isolated or simultaneous use of two residues-steel slag and fresh or composted poultry litter-in the cultivation of broccoli (Brassica oleracea var. italica). The composition and contribution of toxic and potentially toxic metals by different treatments and contents, translocation, and accumulation of Pb, Cd, Cu, Fe, Mn, and Zn in different plant organs were analyzed. Then, risks to human health associated with consumption of inflorescences were based on the indices of estimated daily intake, noncarcinogenic target hazard quotient, total hazard index (THI), and carcinogenic risk factor (CR), considering adults and children. Steel slag was similar to limestone in terms of the corrective effect of acidity and, despite containing toxic metals, it did not contribute to their higher translocation to inflorescences. Composting favored the concentrations of Pb, Cu, and Zn in poultry litter. The combined use of steel slag and fresh poultry litter and, mainly, composted poultry litter, favored absorption and translocation of Pb for inflorescences, that is, 60.37% and 66.13% of all Pb absorbed, respectively. Consumption of inflorescences from these treatments resulted in the critical THI values of 1.03 and 1.52, respectively, with Pb and Cd being the metals that mostly contributed to the risk. The registered CR was higher than the threshold level of 10-6. The use of steel slag associated with poultry litter favors contamination of broccoli inflorescences and increases risks to human health due to their consumption.

RESUMO

The objectives of this study was to diagnose Cd and Pb contamination in soil and to identify the main factors that contribute to the transfer of these elements to tomato plants and fruits and contamination levels of the fruits in tropical mountain conditions. Contamination of the study area soils by Cd and Pb was verified. This contamination stemmed from the intensive use of agricultural inputs, mainly organic fertilizers and soluble mineral fertilizers. The relief of the terrain and inadequate soil management influenced the spatial distribution of these two metals. The Cd concentration in tomato fruits was very low, but the Pb contamination detected in approximately 80% of the fruit samples was considerably higher than the limits that pose a danger to human health. The translocation of Pb to the tomato fruits was associated with the use of organic fertilizer, mainly poultry litter.

RESUMO

Two greenhouse experiments were carried out to evaluate the phytoremediation potential, physiological responses and zinc (Zn) uptake kinetics of water lettuce (Pistia stratiotes L.). The phytoextraction experiment evaluated four doses of Zn (0.7 mg L-1 - represented the Zn in the nutrient solution, 1.8, 18 and 180 mg L-1 - corresponded to ten, hundred and a thousand times, respectively, the maximum permitted content for fresh water) at four different culture times (24, 48, 72 and 168 h). The Zn uptake kinetics of water lettuce were evaluated at two concentrations of Zn (1.8 and 18 mg L-1). The water lettuce attained the highest percentage removal at the lowest evaluated doses (0.7 and 1.8 mg L-1), reaching a maximum value of approximately 72% removal (when cultivated in 1.8 mg L-1 of Zn after 168 h of culture). The Zn uptake increased with culture time, increasing the synthesis of carotenoids at all doses evaluated. The highest doses of Zn resulted in a reduction in photosynthetic efficiency. The results showed a high potential of water lettuce to absorb and tolerate Zn, accumulating preferably in the roots, demonstrating that these plants are able to absorb large quantities of Zn in contaminated solution.

RESUMO

A produção de couve-flor e demais brássicas vem sendo impactada, em nível mundial, devido à ocorrência da doença hérnia das crucíferas, causada por Plasmodiophora brassicae (Wor.). Diante disso, torna-se necessário a busca por estratégias de manejo que possam contribuir na redução das perdas causadas pela doença. Este trabalho objetivou, de forma preliminar, avaliar os efeitos de doses de torta de mamona (TM) na severidade da hérnia das crucíferas e no crescimento de plantas de couve-flor. Foram realizados dois ensaios em casa de vegetação, em tubetes e em vasos, respectivamente. No primeiro, avaliou-se os efeitos de doses de TM (0, 10, 20 e 40 Mg ha-1) na incidência da doença e na massa seca da parte aérea(MSPA). No segundo, avaliou-se o efeito das doses de TM (0, 10, 20, 30 e 40 Mg ha-1) na severidade da doença, atributos das raízes e acúmulo de biomassa nas plantas. Observou-se redução da incidência e aumento da MSPA com o aumento das doses de TM (p<0,05). Observou-se ainda, decréscimos na severidade da doença e incrementos no crescimento das raízes sadias em função das doses (p<0,05). Adicionalmente, observaram-se efeitos positivos das doses de TM na altura das plantas, número e massa seca das folhas, e massa seca de caule e raízes. Conclui-se que a utilização de TM é uma alternativa promissora no manejo da doença e que novos estudos devem ser realizados em condições de campo e com ciclo mais longo.

The production of cauliflower and other brassicas has been impacted worldwide due to the occurrence of the disease clubroot, caused by Plasmodiophora brassicae (Wor.). Therefore, it is necessary to search for disease management strategies that may contribute to reducing the losses caused. The objective of this work was to evaluate the effects of doses of castor bean cake (CK) on the severity of the disease and on the growth of cauliflower plants. Two experiments were carried out in a greenhouse where, in tubes and pots, respectively. In the first one, the effects of CK doses (0, 10, 20 and 40 Mg ha-1) on the disease incidence and dry mass of the aerial part of plants (DMAP) were evaluated. In the second, the effects of the doses of CK (0, 10, 20, 30 and 40 Mg ha-1) on disease severity, root attributes and biomass accumulation in plants were evaluated. Significant differences were observed in incidence, which decreased, and DMAP, that increased, as a function of doses. There were decreases in the severity of the disease and increases in the growth of healthy roots. In addition, positive effects on plant height, number of leaves and dry mass of leaves, stems and roots were observed. It is concluded that the use of castor bean cake was promising and further studies should be performed under field conditions and with longer cycle times.

RESUMO

The increasing concern regarding the preservation of soil quality suggests the adoption of quality reference values as a first step in environmental monitoring actions. In this context, the objective of this study was to establish soil quality reference values for Al, Zn, Mn, Cd, Fe, Pb, Ni, Cr, and Cu and to correlate several soil properties with the occurrence of these elements in the hillslope region of Rio de Janeiro State. Sixty-two samples were collected at depths of 0-20 and 20-40 cm and analyzed using the USEPA method 3051A. After clustering analysis, the samples were separated into three groups. Classification functions were obtained based on the variables pH - Mg - Fe - Mn, i.e., the variables that were best related to heavy metal content. We determined to establish the quality reference values for the 75th percentile of the three groups. The relief forms of the area, which facilitate the transport of soil fine-particle fractions and accumulation in lowlands, were revealed to be one of most important factors in understanding the distribution of soil heavy metals.

RESUMO

The petroleum industry generates a range of wastes which is often are disposed in soil close to the well location, negatively affecting soil and water quality. The objective of this study was to evaluate the solubility and map the spatial variability of barium in a potentially contaminated area. The study area consisted of a petroleum well-drilling waste disposal site located in the municipality of Mato Rico-PR. A large georeferenced sampling grid was organized. Soil samples were collected at depths of 30, 60, 90, and 120 cm for determination of the "pseudo-total" concentrations and geochemical fractionation of barium. The barium concentrations showed spatial dependence, which permitted the use of geostatistical interpolators. Regarding depth, the depth of 0-30 cm showed the largest contaminated area; however, higher concentrations of barium were found at the depth of 60-90 cm. The results of geochemical fractionation showed that the analyzed samples contained percentages higher than 99% in the non-labile fraction (residual). These results indicate clearly that the barium was in a condition of low solubility, even for samples that had the highest concentrations, presenting low-environmental risk.

RESUMO

Soil pH and calcium levels are determining factors in the success or failure of managing clubroot during the cultivation of Brassica spp. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the influence of soil attributes in tropical regions on the development of roots and clubroot and the accumulation of biomass and nutrients in cauliflower. One hundred and fifty-one samples of soil and plants were collected from 16 family farms that have a history of more than 50 years of regular cauliflower cultivation in Nova Friburgo, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Chemical and physical analyses were performed on the soil samples, and the severity of clubroot and the accumulation of biomass and macronutrients in individual plants and plant tissues. Clustering and main principal component analyses were performed on the data. The disease occurred on all farms, but with different intensities. A direct relationship was observed for the soil attributes (acidity and exchangeable aluminum content in particular) with the percentage of roots with clubroot and with the accumulation of biomass and macronutrients in the different plant organs. To reduce losses from clubroot in weathered soils, practices should aim to reduce the pathogen's inoculum potential and improve the physical and chemical conditions of the soil, which would favor root development of the plants.

RESUMO

Determination of the natural background levels of trace elements in organosols and the proposal of quality reference values (QRVs) for these elements are essential for monitoring these soils because they are fragile and subject to change more intensely and rapidly than other soil classes. Given the above information, the objectives of this study were to determine the QRVs of trace elements for organosols and to correlate some soil properties with the occurrence of these elements. Forty organic soil horizon samples from different regions of Brazil were selected to determine the pseudo-total content of trace elements. The samples were separated into three groups according to a cluster analysis. The soil variable Fe and C contents had the strongest influence on the trace element contents in the organosols and were therefore used in the group classification functions. QRVs were proposed according to the 75th percentiles of the groups. The classification functions are a suitable tool for the allocation of new samples into previously established groups and may potentially be used to estimate the degree of organosol degradation.

RESUMO

Na exploração do petróleo, o uso de fluidos de perfuração é essencial para o equilíbrio da pressão entre as formações e o interior do poço, além de impedir o refluxo do reservatório de petróleo ao poço. Os fluidos também são responsáveis pela elevação dos cascalhos de perfuração à superfície. Entretanto, estes podem ser potenciais contaminantes do ambiente, uma vez que chegam à superfície impregnados de fluidos. O trabalho objetivou avaliar o pH e os teores de Na+, K+, Ca2+, Mg2+e Al3+em um Latossolo e um Planossolo submetidos a doses de fluido de perfuração, após sofrerem dois ensaios de lixiviação. Os resultados mostraram que a adição dos fluidos ao Planossolo e Latossolo nas concentrações de 4%, 8% e 16% (m/m) reduziu o alumínio tóxico a zero e promoveu aumento do pH do solo, Na+, K+e Ca2+em comparação ao controle.(AU)

In petroleum exploration, the use of drilling fluids is critical to the balance of pressure between the formations and the interior of the shaft, and preventing the backflow of oil from the reservoir to the oill well. Fluids are also responsible for raising the drill cuttings to the surface. However, these may potentially contaminate the environment once they arrive at the fluid-impregnated surface. This study aimed to check the pH and Na+, K+, Ca2+, Mg2+and Al3+ in an Oxisol and Planosol subjected to doses of drilling fluid, after suffering two leaching tests. The results showed that the addition of fluids to Planosoland Oxisol at concentrations of 4%, 8% and 16% (w / w) reduced toxic aluminum to zero and promoted an increase of the soil pH, Na+, K+ and Ca2+ compared to control.(AU)

RESUMO

A escória de aciaria é um rejeito da produção do aço e possui propriedade corretiva da acidez do solo, podendo reduzir consequentemente a mobilidade de elementos traço. O trabalho objetivou avaliar a capacidade do resíduo industrial escória de aciaria em reduzir a solubilidade e lixiviação de Mn em resíduos contaminados. No Laboratório de Poluição de Solos da UFRRJ (Seropédica-RJ), foram realizados ensaios de lixiviação em colunas usando três resíduos contaminados com Mn, denominados G1, G2 e G3 e duas doses de resíduo inertizante (escória de aciaria). Nas colunas, foi aplicado um volume de água conhecido e constante que simula a precipitação máxima ocorrida nos últimos 17 anos na região onde foi coletado o resíduo. A maior dose do resíduo de escória de aciaria (6%) reduziu a solubilidade do Mn a valores inferiores ao limite máximo permitido pela ABNT, nos grupos G1, G2 e G3, sendo que o tratamento com 6% escória de aciaria + barreiras químicas foi o mais eficiente na redução da lixiviação de Mn em todos os grupos de resíduos estudados. Portanto, os resultados evidenciaram a eficiência da escória de aciaria na redução da solubilidade e lixiviação do Mn, em todos os resíduos.

Steelmaking slag is a waste of steel production and has owned corrective soil acidity and may consequently reduce the mobility of trace elements. The research aimed the capacity of industrial waste steelmaking slag to reduce the solubility and lixiviation of Mn in contaminated soil. In the Soil Pollution Laboratory of the UFRRJ (Seropédica-RJ), leaching experiments were carried using three different residues contaminated with Mn, and two doses of the inertizant residues steelmaking slag. In the columns were applied a known and constant volume of water, established to simulate the maximum precipitation occurred in the last 17 years, in the region where the residue was collected. The highest dose of steelmaking slag (6%) reduced the Mn solubility below the maximum allowed by ABNT, for G1, G2 and Ge, and the treatment with 6% steelmaking slag + barriers chemical was the most effective in reducing the leaching of Mn in all groups. Therefore, the results showed the efficiency of steelmaking slag in the reduction of Mn solubility and lixiviation in all residues.
