Study on Remediation-improvement of 2,4-Dichlorophenol Contaminated Soil by Organic Fertilizer Immobilized Laccase

In this paper, laccase is immobilized by the cross-linking method, using organic fertilizer as a carrier and glutaraldehyde as a cross-linking agent. Here, the optimal conditions of laccase immobilization were explored and the optimal operating conditions and stabilities of free laccase and immobilized laccase were also studied. Then, free laccase and immobilized laccase were applied to the soil remediation. Meanwhile, the effect of soil improvement treated with immobilized laccase was studied through ecological evaluation. The results showed that the optimal conditions for laccase immobilization were: the volume fraction of glutaraldehyde was 5%, the amount of enzyme added was 15 mL, and the immobilization time was 6 h. Under the same conditions, thermal stability and acid-base stability of immobilized laccase were better than free laccase. Under the optimal conditions, using laccase to treat 2,4-dichlorophenol in the soil, it was found that the free laccase group degraded 44.4% within 5 days, while the immobilized laccase group degraded 58.6%. Although both the degradation trends and route are the same, the degradation effect of the latter is obviously better. Ecological evaluation showed that organic fertilizer carrier had an impact on soil physical and chemical properties and soil enzymes, playing a positive role in soil ecological security and improving the soil.
