Résumé


The cleaning of waterways by regular dredging generates great volumes of sediments and, owing to human activities, these sediments often contain large amounts of metals. For some of these contaminated sediments, a treatment by phytoextraction could be considered. To our knowledge, phytoextraction with hyperaccumulating plants has been rarely tested on heavily contaminated sediments. This work consisted in a preliminary study of Cd phytoextraction potentialities and focused on the fate of Cd present in a metal-polluted dredged sediment during the culture of Arabidopsis halleri, a Zn and Cd hyperaccumulating plant. In this purpose, a five month pot experiment was achieved; results obtained for the first four months of monitoring are presented here. Cd contents in the sediment, in the aerial parts of plant and in the leachates were measured each month. Cd speciation in the sediment was studied by EXAFS and µXANES spectroscopy, Cd localization by SEM-EDX and µXRF. Before culture, Cd was present as mixed Zn, Cd and Fe sulphide in the sediment.


Version traduite : La phytoextraction est-elle un traitement "vert" approprié pour les sédiments contaminés en métaux ?

La maintenance des voies navigables par dragages réguliers génère de grands volumes de sédiment et, suite aux activités humaines, ces sédiments contiennent souvent de grandes quantités de métaux. Pour certains de ces sédiments contaminés, un traitement par phytoextraction pourrait être envisagé. À notre connaissance, la phytoextraction utilisant des plantes hyperaccumulatrices a rarement été testée sur des sédiments contaminés en métaux. Ce travail est une étude préliminaire sur le potentiel de la phytoextraction du cadmium (Cd). Il porte sur le devenir du Cd présent dans un sédiment de curage contaminé par des métaux lors de la culture d’Arabidopsis halleri, plante hyperaccumulatrice de Zn et de Cd. Dans ce but, une expérience de culture en pot de cinq mois est réalisée ; les résultats obtenus pendant les quatre premiers mois du suivi de culture sont présentés ici. Les teneurs en Cd contenues dans le sédiment, dans les parties aériennes de la plante et dans les lixiviats sont mesurées chaque mois. La spéciation du Cd présent dans le sédiment est étudiée par spectroscopie EXAFS et µXANES et la localisation par MEB-EDX et µXRF.
