Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The seaweed restoration method using the mixture of steelmaking slag and compost containing humic substances (slag-compost fertilizer) has been developed. The research goal was to understand the characteristic of iron elution from the slag-compost fertilizer toward practical use of this method. Iron elution tests with small plastic containers and 300L tanks were examined. The field investigations in river and coastal areas for estimating the dynamics of iron and organic matter were also conducted. It was found that iron elution was promoted under reducing conditions and mixing of slag and compost resulted in the activation of anaerobic microorganisms in the fertilizer contributed to reductive iron elution. In addition, the results of the field investigation indicate that the dynamics of iron and organic matter in river water, which are related to river and coastal environments, are strongly influenced by the land use in the basins.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究成果は、沿岸生態系修復を目的とした環境技術の実用化へとつながるとともに、未利用資源の有効活用というリサイクル工学の観点で、学術的意義及び社会的意義がある。また、広く製鋼スラグの海域利用に向けての基盤データとして提供が可能である点でも意義があると考えられる。一方で、河川流域の土地利用が鉄や有機物の動態、そして河川・海域環境に影響を与える可能性が示されたことから、沿岸生態系保全の面でも学術的意義があるといえる。
