Abstract

The application of water treatments sludge (WTS) in degraded soil is an alternative solution for this residual disposal and also for degraded soil recuperation. The objective of this work was to evaluate the effect of application of WTS in content of macronutrients, total organic carbon (TOC) and electric conductivity (EC) in degraded soil by tin mining. The WTS can be used in degraded area, because it increases the contents of Ca, Mg, K and soil pH.
