In situ remediation technologies for contaminated soils are faced with significant technical challenges when the contaminated soil has low permeability. Popular traditional technologies are rendered ineffective due to the difficulty encountered in accessing the contaminants as well as when employed in settings where the soil contains mixed contaminants such as petroleum hydrocarbons, heavy meta...

The effects of drip irrigation and different cultivation methods on seedgermination and growth of Puccinellia tenuiflora in saline-sodic soils wereinvestigated in field experiments during 2008-2010 in the Songnen Plain, China.Drip irrigation was applied to waste saline-sodic P. tenuiflora grasslands for bothflat and ridge cultivation methods. Drip irrigation affected the distributions ofelectri...

A field experiment on a saline-sodic soil with pH 8.21-8.42, ECe 6.40-7.90 dSm and SAR 17.79-23.46mmolwas carried out using five soil reclaiming treatments viz., leaching (Control), Farm yard manure (FYM) @ 10 tons ha, Rice Husk (RH) @ 10 tons ha, FYM+RH @ 5+5 tons ha and Gypsum @ 100% soil requirement in a complete randomized block design with four replications. Rice variety SARSHAR and wheat ...

This study was carried out to determine changes in hydraulic conductivity of a saline sodic soil subjected different wetting-drying cycles and treated wastewater after stabilized sludge sewage gypsum application. In factorial experimental design, the conducted with three replication by using 3 treatment doses (50, 100 150 t ha-1), (0, 7 14 days) 2 water types (fresh wastewater). The values satu...

Sub-soil (> 30 cm) salinity and sodicity is a growing problem particularly in irrigated agricultural areas with rising water tables, poor water quality and/or deficient soil drainage. There were two objectives in this study; (1) to quantify the effect of sub-soil salinity and sodicity in grain yield of triticale, bread wheat and durum wheat and, (2) to determine if genotypes within and between ...

The application of organic amendments can be an appropriate solution to reclaim and improve physical propertiesof saline-sodic soils. In this research, an experiment was performed under greenhouse conditions to study the effect ofamendments to the physical properties of loamy saline-sodic soil. The five treatments were control (withoutamendment), municipal solid waste compost (MC), vermicompost...
