Abstract

Microorganisms also play an important role in soil ecosystems. Microorganisms can adsorb heavy metals in soil. Therefore, microbial remediation technology is widely used in the remediation of heavy metal-contaminated soils. It is of great significance to carry out research on soil microbial ecological effects in polluted areas to solve the problem of remediation and improvement of contaminated soil. This paper collects soil samples contaminated by heavy metals in a certain area, and measures the panel data such as pH value, electrical conductivity, and heavy metal content of the soil samples, and then uses microbial remediation technology to remediate the contaminated soil, and estimates the analysis results through the combined removal of heavy metals and soil remediation. It was found that the organophosphate-solubilizing bacteria OPW2-6 could increase the soil pH, thus improving the soil properties and achieving a good remediation effect.
