Copper and zinc retention by an organically amended soil

Chemosphere, 2003
This paper describes changes in retention of Cu and Zn in laboratory experiments by a sandy soil that had been amended in the field with different composted wastes. The amounts of the metals retained increased as a result of the amendments, especially after two years.

Measuring the organic amendment properties of the liquid fraction of digestate.

Waste Management, 2019
The liquid fraction (LF) of digestate has usually been proposed as a substitute for mineral fertilizers because of the presence of high N content, above all in easily available form (ammonia).

The role of organic amendment in soils affected by residual pollution of potentially harmful elements.

Chemosphere, 2019
The addition of organic amendment in soils affected by residual pollution of potentially harmful elements (PHEs) is evaluated. The area was polluted twenty years ago and remediation actions were intensively applied, but evidence of pollution are still ...

Carbon Budget and Aggregate Stability of Paddy Soil under Continuous Organic Amendment

Communications in Soil Science and Plant Analysis, 2019
Damage to soil structures and depletions of soil carbon under paddy cultivation are concerns for the sustenance of food security in Bangladesh. Long-term organic amendment in paddy field plays an important role in improving soil properties and crop ...

Molecular changes in organic matter of a compost‐amended soil

European Journal of Soil Science, 2009
Summary The molecular changes of organic matter in a cultivated soil after compost amendments was followed by off‐line‐pyrolysis‐TMAH GC‐MS. Thermochemolysis of soil and compost provided a detailed molecular characterization of soil organic matter (SOM) by releasing a large amount of different molecules mainly ...

Organic matter amendment and plant colonization drive mineral weathering, organic carbon sequestration and water stable aggregation in magnetite Fe ore tailings.

Environmental Science and Technology, 2019
The formation of water-stable aggregates in finely textured and polymineral magnetite-Fe ore tailings is one of critical processes in eco-engineering tailings into soil-like substrates as a new way to rehabilitate the tailings.

Role of Organic Amendments in Sustainable Agriculture

2017
Organic farming is one type of sustainable farming. It has potential, especially for farms that still rely on traditional and extensive agricultural methods. Organic farming can provide quality food without adversely affecting the soil’s health and the environment; however, a concern is whether large-scale organic farming will produce enough food for ...
