Plants also have three main "food groups", or rather "macro nutrients", the three elements that make up the bulk of a fertilizer:NPK. You may have seen those letters on fertilizer bags. They stand for nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and potassium (kalium in other languages, hence the chem...
What are trace elements in food? What happens when there is a deficiency of fat-soluble vitamins in the body? What are the symptoms? What effects does fertilizer have on an aquatic system? What are the dietary sources of vitamin D?
What is the importance of silica cell walls in diatoms? Can you grow plants without soil? Explain. What is biological nitrogen fixation? Why is it important? What are "trace elements" and what role do they play in proper microbial growth?
Making order in water soluble fertilizers (WSFs). How they function, where they are used and how ICL's products come into the picture
The EU ETS represents the cornerstone of the EU climate policy framework. While most of the studies focus on the determinants of carbon price, this work wi
Minerals are crystals that are naturally formed of various elements under intense conditions. In the case of kyawthuite, scientists concluded during their study that the gem primarily contains bismuth (a silvery pinkish metal), antimony (a silvery bluish white metal or metalloid), and tetraoxygen ...
Ideally, no fertilizer should be added before a soil test can confirm which elements are missing and which elements may already be present in excessive amounts. Abundant fertilization can often lead to an accumulation of excess phosphorus. Soil testing can be done through a university expansion ser...
Composting is the process of recycling organic materials into decomposed matter called compost, a natural fertilizer that can be used to fortify soil and plants.
Advanced wastewater treatment processes are highly recommended for contaminants such as monovalent ions from an abiotic source and SARS-CoV-2 from an abiotic source. This work introduces the fundamental knowledge of various methods in advanced water treatment, including membranes, filtration, Ultraviolet ...
What is the nitrogen cycle? Explain the steps. Why does the flow of energy through the biosphere depend on the cycling of nutrients? Why does the cycling of nutrients depend on gravity? What are the components of the water cycle? Explain why it is difficult to trace elements through biogeoch...
