Limestone Particle Size and Residual Lime Concentration Affect pH Buffering in Container Substrates
The objective was to quantify how the concentration and particle size of unreacted “residual” limestone affected pH buffering capacity for ten commercial and nine research container substrates that varied in residual calcium carbonate equivalents (CCE) from 0.3 to 4.9 g CCE·L. The nine research substrates contained 70% peat:30% perlite (by volume) with dolomitic hydrated lime at 2.1 g·L, follow...
متن کاملInfluence of source and particle size of agricultural limestone on efficiency at increasing soil pH
Excessive soil acidity is known to have potential negative impacts on crop production. The chemical and physical characteristics of a liming material determine its capacity to neutralize soil acidity. The material CaCO3 equivalent (CCE) and fineness effectiveness estimates are included in effective CCE (ECCE) assessments of a material’s liming value and to decide application rates. The objectiv...
متن کاملINFLUENCE OF SOURCE AND PARTICLE SIZE ON AGRICULTURAL LIMESTONE EFFICIENCY AT INCREASING SOIL pH
INTRODUCTION Excessive soil acidity is known to have potential negative impacts on crop production. The chemical and physical characteristics of a liming material determine its capacity to neutralize soil acidity. The calcium carbonate (CaCO3) equivalent (CCE) and estimates of particle size impact on the efficiency at increase soil pH are considered when assessing a material’s liming value. The...
متن کاملEffect of Surfactant Type, Cholesterol Content and Various Downsizing Methods on the Particle Size of Niosomes
The present study was conducted to investigate the performance of different size reduction techniques including probe sonication, extrusion, and high pressure homogenization for nanosizing of niosomes. Also, the effects of cholesterol content and surfactant type on the size and poly dispersity index (PDI) of the formulations were evaluated. Various niosomal formulations composed of Brij 72, Spa...
متن کاملEffect of limestone particle size on egg production and eggshell quality of hens during late production
A study was conducted to determine the influence of different particle size limestone in layer diets on egg production and eggshell quality during the later stages of egg production (>54 weeks of age). Calcitic limestone (360 g Ca/kg), consisting of small (<1.0 mm), medium (1.0 2.0 mm) and large (2.0 3.8 mm) particles were obtained from a specific South African source that is extensively used i...
