Description
1~6~ 3~
The invention relates to methods of treating substrates capable of supporting the gro~th of plants to reduce damage to, and/or to reduce heavy metal residues in, plants growing on the substrates.
In recent times there is an increasing number of cases in which naturally occurring substrates, because of their high content of heavy metals, can no longer be used for growing plants since the natural growth of the plants is impaired or prevented, or since the plants exhibit excessively high contents of heavy metals, for example lead, which are toxic or phytotoxic ----to humans (see, for example, P. Sorauer in "Handbuch der Pflanzenkrankheiten"
("Handbook of Plant Diseases"), volume I, 2nd instalment, 1969, pages 203-204, 221-222, 306-309 and 392-394). Thus, for example, difficulties arose in growing azaleas, since the azalea cuttings did not root in the conventional conifer soil which was used for growing cuttings and which, as was shown by subsequent analysis, contained 200 ppm of lead, 100 ppm of copper and 200 ppm of zinc.
It has now been found that the damage caused to plants by heavy metals which are phytotoxic or toxic to humans, and/or the residues in plants grown on substrates containing these metals, can be reduced or even avoided completely, if chelate-forming ion exchange resins are added to these sub-strates.
According to the present invention, therefore, there is provided a method of treating a substrate capable of supporting the growth of a plant to reduce damage to and/or to reduce heavy metal residues in plants grown on the substrate comprising incorporating from about 0.2 to about 10 equivalent of an insoluble chelate-forming ion-exchange resin into the substrate per equivalent of heavy metal to be fixed.
1~69331 The inv~ntion al~o provide~ a ~ne-thod of reducin~ heavy r~et~l residues in a plant grown on a ~ubstrate con~ainin~ a he~vy metal comprisin~ ~rowing the plant on a substrate treated by rl method according to the preceding para~raph.
The chelate-forming ion exchange resins to be used according to the in~ention are known. They, and the various processes for their preparation, are described in detail in, for example, R. Hering "Chelatbildende Ionen-austauscher" ("Chelate-forming Ion Exchangers"), Akademie-Verlag, Berlin, 1967. The chelate-forming ion exchangers can be based on a great variety o~ resin matrices. Thus, the resin structures may be, for example, condensation resins, such as are obtained by condensation of aliphatic and/or aromatic amines with epichlorohydrin and/or ~ormaldehyde.
The preparation of such condensation resins is known and is de~cribed7 for example, in R, Griesbaoh "Austausch-Adsorption in Theorie und Praxis" ("Exch~nge Adsorption in Theory and Practice"), Akademie-Verlag, Berlin, 1957, pages 56 to 62.
Preferably, howe~er, the matrices on which the chelate-forming ion exohange resins are ba~ed are macroporou~ or microporous copolymer~ of monovinyl compounds, for example styrene, ~inyl-toluene or v~nyln~phthalene, and polyvlinyl compounds, such as divinylbenzene or trivinylbenzene, which are prepared in a manner which is in itsel~ known, for example in accordance with the method~ diaclo9ed in German Patent Specification 1,045,102 (macroporous pJlymexs)or R.Griesbach "Austausch-Ad~orption in Theorie und Pr~is" ~xchange Adsorption in m eory and Practice"), Akademie ~erlag, Berlin, 1957, pages 56 to 62 Le A 15 878 - 3 -1~)6~33~
(microporous polymers) and into which the functional chelate-forming groups are introduced in a manner which is in itself known.
Chelate-forming groups which have proved particularly suitable are the groups derived from N-(poly)-alkanecarboxylic acids, for example N-(poly)-acetic acids, such as nitrilotriacetic acid, ethylenediamine-tetraacetic acid, diethylenetriamine-pentaacetic acid, N-~-hydroxyethyl-ethylenediamine-triacetic acid, cyclohexane-trans-1,2-diamino-tetraacetic acid, ethylene-diamine-N,N'-di-(o hydroxyphenyl)-acetic acid, N,N'-di-~-hydroxyethyl-ethylenediamine-diacetic acid, bis-(dicarboxy-methyl-aminomethyl) ether or bis-(dicarboxymethyl-aminomethyl) sulphide and especially from iminodiacetic acid.
The chelate-forming ion exchangers can be employed in variously charged ~orms. Depending on the composition of the substrate to be treated, it is advisable to use the exchangers in the H form or in their salt ~orm, pre~erably the form of the potassium9 calcium or magnesium salt.
Furthermore, the use of mixtures of the variously charged forms can under certain circumstances be advantageous. The ion exchangers to be used according to the in~-ention can be used in the form of granules, in bead form or in powder form.
For use in granule form or bead form, chelate-forming ion exchangers with a macroporous matrix are particularly suitable.
The ion exchangers to be used according to the invent-ion are in general employed by adding the chelate-forming ion exchangers to the substrates to be treated by raki~g or digging-over and ensuring that the substrate and the ion exchanger are mixed as intimately as possible with one another.
~e A 15 ~7~ - 4 . , The amount in which the ion exchangers to be used according to the invention are employed per m3 of substrate depends essentially on the heavy metal content of the sub-strate. In general, the resins are employed in an amount such that 0.2-10, preferably 0.5-2, equivalents of chelate-forming group in the ion exchanger are present per 1 equivalent of heavy metal to be fixed. The optimum amount can also be determined, for example, empirically by the so-called cress test. This test is carried out by growing cress on a subst~ate containing heavy metal and determining what amount of chelate-forming ion exchange resin, when added, restores normal growth of the young plants.
The substrates to be treated according to the invention can be either natural substrates such as humus soils, peaty soils, sandy soils, loam soils or clay soils, or syn-thetic substrates) for example substrates based on polyure-thane.
The followin~ Examples i:lustrate the invention.

iminodiacetic acid group equivalent: 3.8 milliequivalents/g) were worked into five different substrates having a raised content of toxic heavy metalsO Cress was sown after 14 days on the substrates thus obtained and after 12 days the rooting of the young plants was examined; the following results were obtained (t~e rooting was assessed in terms o~ ratings 0 to 6, wherein 0 = no rooting and 6 = normal rooting).
