Optimization of a reactor for biostimulant production with emphasis on the economic aspects of hydrolysis

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Biostimulants are increasingly used in agriculture to promote plant growth, improve stress tolerance, and support sustainable farming practices. One common method of production is chemical hydrolysis of protein‐rich waste, such as tannery by‐products, offering an economical and eco‐friendly alternative to conventional raw materials.

Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometric Determination of Water-Soluble Boron in Fertilizers

open access: yesJournal of AOAC INTERNATIONAL, 1969
Abstract Water-soluble boron is extracted into a mixlure of 2-ethyl-l,3-hexanediol and methyl isobutyl ketone for determination by atomic absorption spectrophotometry. The extraction procedure brings the fertilizer sample, water, and extraction solvent in contact simultaneously.

Iron(III)‐loaded cation exchange resin: A dual approach for aqueous H2S removal and biogas desulphurization

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Left: Desulphurization method application. Right: Novel desulphurization method. Abstract The presence of hydrogen sulphide (H2S) in biogas poses significant environmental and operational challenges due to its corrosive and toxic properties. Thus, this study aimed to develop a dual‐function desulphurization system using a cation exchange resin (CIER ...

Use of inorganic fertiliser in place of poultry manure for rehabilitation of gold and bauxite ore refining residues [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Ore refining residues are difficult substrates for revegetation because they often contain extremely low plant available levels of one or more essential elements (Hossner and Hons 1992).

Enhancement of the Plant‐Accessible Phosphate Fraction in Sewage Sludge Ashes by Na+ or K+ Addition Prior to Combustion

open access: yesChemSusChem, Volume 18, Issue 6, March 15, 2025.
The addition of Na2CO3 or K2CO3 to sewage sludge prior to combustion leads to the production of ashes containing phosphate in the form of buchwaldite‐like phases (Ca(Na/K)PO4). Compared to conventional sewage sludge mono‐ashes, such Na‐ or K‐ashes show greatly increased P‐solubilities and proved to be potent P‐fertiliser materials in greenhouse ...

Effects of different types of fertilizers on plankton productivity in earthen ponds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Three fertilizer types (NPK, Super-phosphate and cow dung) were applied at two levels (Low, 0.3 kg/25m super(2)/2weeks and High, 0.7kg/25 m super(2)/2weeks) to 12 ponds with two ponds serving as control.

Lower nitrogen leaching from struvite than monoam monium phosphate is more size-dependent than phosphorus leaching

open access: yesGeoderma
The use of wastewater-derived struvite (MgNH4PO4·6H2O) as a lower water solubility alternative to highly water-soluble phosphorus (P) fertilizers such as monoammonium phosphate (MAP) has been widely hypothesized to reduce fertilizer nitrogen (N) and ...
