Assessment of the structure, composition, and agrochemical properties of fly ash and ash-and-slug waste from coal-fired power plants for their possible use as soil ameliorants

A. D. Kotelnikova et al.

Summary: Coal combustion byproducts, such as fly ash, bottom ash, and ash and slag waste, have potential for application as soil ameliorants. This research investigated the possibility of using fly ash and bottom ash as soil ameliorants and assessed their impact on soil quality indicators. The findings suggest that these waste materials can help normalize soil acidity and contribute to agrophysically valuable aggregates. Moreover, the concentration of potentially toxic elements in the ash and slag waste samples did not exceed legislatively established standards, indicating their safety for use.

Effects of Moringa oleifera leaf extracts and its bioactive compound gallic acid on reducing toxicities of heavy metals and metalloid in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Kittikhun Kerdsomboon et al.

Summary: The study demonstrates the potential of Moringa oleifera leaf extract in alleviating metal toxicity, particularly in combating arsenic, cadmium, nickel, and lead. It was found that the aqueous extract significantly promoted yeast cell growth in the presence of these toxic metals, despite having lower phenolic and flavonoid content compared to the ethanolic extract. Additionally, gallic acid was identified as a key compound in protecting cells against arsenic toxicity by reducing arsenic accumulation and ROS production.

Foliar Concentrations of Selected Elements, Assessment of Oxidative Stress Markers and Role of Antioxidant Defense System is Associated with Fly Ash Stress Tolerance inWithania somnifera

Sami Ullah Qadir et al.

Summary: Increased dependence on thermal power has led to a significant increase in fly ash generation, contributing to environmental pollution. Planting vegetation over fly ash dumps can help mitigate pollution, although plants themselves are also affected by pollution. Withania somnifera growing near a thermal power plant showed higher metal concentrations and signs of oxidative stress compared to plants at a control site.

Assessment of leaf morphological characteristics, phenolics content and metal(loid)s concentrations in Calendula officinalis L. grown on fly ash amended soil

Ayushi Varshney et al.

Summary: The experiment analyzed the impact of different doses of fly ash in soil on the growth performance, phenolics, flavonoids, and elemental uptake of Calendula officinalis. The results showed that low ratios of fly ash amendment to soil improved plant growth, while high fly ash doses tended to decrease growth parameters. A 40% concentration of fly ash did not contain toxic levels of elements and resulted in improved growth and yield. Additionally, increasing fly ash application up to 60% showed an increasing trend in phenolics and flavonoids in leaves.

Growth and antioxidant responses in plants induced by heavy metals present in fly ash

Ayushi Varshney et al.

Summary: Fly ash is a solid waste generated from coal combustion in thermal power plants, which is both harmful to the environment and beneficial for agricultural crops. Utilizing fly ash as a soil ameliorant enhances crop productivity by improving soil properties, but heavy metals present in fly ash can pose phytotoxicity to plants and induce oxidative stress. Understanding the antioxidative system of various plant species in response to heavy metal damage is crucial for determining the optimal concentration of fly ash for plant cultivation in agriculture.
