Materials and Methods PG, obtained from TÜGSA^ Fertilizer Plant in Samsun, Turkey, was sieved (particle size, 65 mesh) and then preconditioned with lime milk. Physical and chemical characteristics of raw and lime-preconditioned PG have been published. Aqueous solutions (100 ml) containing Zn ions (50 mg/l) were taken in Erlenmeyer flasks (250 ml) containing lime-preconditioned PG (1 g). These f...

A study was conducted to evaluate the leaching potential of unpaved road materials (URM) mixed with lime activated high carbon fly ashes and to evaluate groundwater impacts of barium, boron, copper, and zinc leaching. This objective was met by a combination of batch water leach tests, column leach tests, and computer modeling. The laboratory tests were conducted on soil alone, fly ash alone, an...

Pot and field experiments were done to establish the effect of Rhizobium inoculation, Molybdenum and lime supply on the availability of micronutrients (Cu, Zn, Mn, Fe, B and Mo) in Phaseolus vulgaris L. In both field and pot experiments, Rhizobium inoculation significantly improved uptake of Mn, Fe, Cu, Zn, B and Mo in all organs (roots, shoots, pods and whole plants) except the Mo uptake in ro...

Although Ca(OH)2 is one of the oldest art and building material used by mankind, little is known about its nanostructural and colloidal characteristics that play a crucial role in its ultimate performance as a binder in lime mortars and plasters. In particular, it is unknown why hydrated lime putty behaves as an irreversible colloid once dried. Such effect dramatically affects the reactivity an...

Typically thermal power plants are located near to surface coal mines that produce huge amount of fly ash as a waste byproduct. Disposal of fly ash causes significant economic and environmental problems. Now-a-days, research is going on for bulk utilization of fly ash. In order to increase its percentage utilization, an investigation was carried out to evaluate its potential for haul road const...

Since 1985 two series of field trials have been conducted or established to assess the value of lime and phosphogypsum for the amelioration of aluminium toxicity. The first series considered their use on weak, coastal sandy soils and the secondconcerned their use on midlands' acid soils with high clay and organic matter contents and under the minimum tillage system. On weak sandy soils the over...

O of the greatest difficulties experienced in developing a wellbalanced system of agriculture in the southeastern states is associated with a soil peculiarity that has heretofore made it impractical to use lime except at limited rates of application. For some time liming has been known to promote a deficiency of available manganese on extensive areas, but the soils involved are generally relati...

Greenhouse experiments were carried out for phytoremediation of the Pb/Zn abandoned tailings (pH 3.2 and high metal content) of Rampura-Agucha Mines, Rajasthan. Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp. (cowpea) was chosen as a test crop. On unamended tailings, the seeds of the test plant showed no germination. The tailing was amended with lime (3% on weight basis), 3% lime + NPK (diammonium phosphate at 60...

of a Master's Thesis in Human Biology at the University of Indianapolis filed June 2000 Dr. Stephen P. Nawrocki, Chair Dr. Christopher W. Schmidt, Reader Of the many factors that affect buried remains, one that is particularly pertinent to forensic studies is the inclusion of lime in a burial. It would seem that assailants believe that lime accelerates the decomposition of soft tissues in burie...
