Abstract

Groundwater aquifers are one of the main sources of drinking water and agricultural water supply. However, increasing the use of nitrogen fertilizers is a serious threat to underground water and human health due to the high dynamics of nitrate in the soil. Therefore, in this study, the effect of 0%, 1%, and 2% by weight of cocopeat, biocharcocopeat, and vermicompost modifiers on nitrate transport in sandy loam and clay loam soils was investigated. The soils were obtained from the agricultural research center of Hamadan province. After that, the experiments were carried out in the form of a completely randomized design in three replications, in the irrigation and drainage laboratory of the Faculty of Agriculture of Bu-Ali Sina University of Hamedan. Then the soil columns with a length of 70 cm and a diameter of 6 cm were filled with soil up to a height of 50 cm. Pure potassium nitrate salt solution was used as an artificial pollutant with a concentration of 150 mg/lit. During the experiment, a constant water head load of 5 cm of the pollutant solution was continuously maintained on the soil columns, and sampling of the columns' drainage was done at different times. The results showed that the use of modifiers affected the physical and chemical properties of the soil. These changes included an increase in organic carbon, organic matter, electrical conductivity and porosity, and a decrease in apparent density compared to the control soil.
