Study on Kailyard soil amendment by adding compost of sludge

Mixture of municipal sewage sludge and organic garbage, which was alternatively treated by aerobic and anaerobic composting technologies for 60 days. The characteristics of the compost are as follows： the total nitrogen （TN）, total phosphors （TP） and total potassium （TK） are 1.40%, 0.101% and 1908.32 mg/kg on dry weight basis, the contents of Cu, Ni, Cd, Cr, Pb and Zn are 131.23, 21.49, 1.31, 35.49, 72.50 and 616.76 mg/kg on dry weight basis. A basin-scale experiment was carded out by planting watercress with kailyard soil fertilizing with the compost, the results showed that the municipal sewage sludge and organic garbage compost could promote the production of watercress to different degrees, the crop biomass increased from 74.46% to 312.00% with the amount of compost fertilizing on the kaliyard soil while the amount of compost fertilizing on the kaliyard soil below 150 g per 3.75 kg kaliyard soil and decreased from 312.00% to 102.29% while the amount of compost fertilizing on it over 150 g per 3.75 kg kaliyard soil, so the optimal addition of compost in the watercress and soil was 150 g compost per 3.75 kg kailyard soil. Furthermore,
