the main limiting factors in saline-sodic soils are high amounts of salts, low soil organic matter (som) and lowavailability of macro and micro-nutrients. the effect of different amounts of nano iron oxide powder and urban solidwaste compost coated sulfur (uswcs) on the chemical properties of a saline-sodic soil was investigated. the experimentwas conducted using a randomized complete block des...

abstract nowadays, environmental pollution by heavy metals is one of the most serious threats of the world which needs effective remediation actions. the aim of this study was to investigate the potential use of atriplex [atriplex verucifera], salicornia [salicornia europaea] and chenopodium album in simultaneous uptake and accumulation of na and cd or pb in two calcareous soils with different ...

Trivalent Cr is one of the heavy metals that are difficult to be removed from soil using electrokinetic study because of its geochemical properties. High buffering capacity soil is expected to reduce the mobility of the trivalent Cr and subsequently reduce the remedial efficiency thereby complicating the remediation process. In this study, geochemical modeling and migration of trivalent Cr in s...

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 main limiting factors in saline-sodic soils are high amounts of salts, low soil organic matter (SOM) and lowavailability of macro and micro-nutrients. The effect of different amounts of nano iron oxide powder and urban solidwaste compost coated sulfur (USWCS) on the chemical properties of a saline-sodic soil was investigated.

Fresh water source scarcity in arid and semiarid area is limitation factor for saline-sodic soil reclamation. The reusing of agricultural drainage and industrial wastewater are preferred strategies for combating with this concern. The objective of current study was evaluation in application of industrial sugar manufacture wastewater due to high soluble organic compounds in saline-sodic and sodi...

Reduction of fossil fuels sources, increasing of pollution gases emission, and global warming effects increase the demand of renewable fuels. One of the main candidates of alternative fuels is biodiesel. Biodiesel limits greenhouse gas effects due to the closed CO2 cycle. Biodiesel has more biodegradability, lower combustion emissions such as CO, SOx, HC, PM and lower toxicity than petro diesel...

to study the effects of soil amendments on physical and hydraulic properties of a saline-sodic sandy clay loam soil, a field experiment was carried out as a complete block design with three replications. the treatments in this research consisted of control (b), 10 ton ha-1 gypsum (g), 10 ton ha-1 urban solid compost (c), three levels of vinyl alcohol acrylic acid (s1= 0.05%, s2= 0.1%, s3= 0.2%)...
