Biochar is a potential solution for addressing environmental problems related to excessive nitrogen (N). However, there still some debate about the absorption and desorption of nitrate (NO3−-N). Therefore, this study investigated NO3−-N adsorption performance onto biochar biochar-soil mixture address gap. The results showed that produced from apple branches had ability absorb with an capacity 3...

a hydrophilic macromolecular network is prepared by performing graft copolymerization of poly (sodium acrylate) chains onto salep and silica gel. the reaction parameters affecting the water absorbency of the superabsorbent composite were optimized using taguchi method. ft-ir spectroscopy and thermo gravimetric analysis (tga) were used for confirming the structure of the final product and morpho...

Abstract. Large quantities of N fertilizers may be lost in rice fields by nitrification-denitrification. In this connection, experiments were carried out in order to compare the effects from slow-release N-fertilizers (ISODUR) and products integrated with diciandiamide (DCD), a nitrification inhibitor, with the N splitting method applied in two or three times on the rice growth and yield. The e...

In order to raise awareness about environmental protection, people are paying more attention now-a-days in reusing wastepaper. As a result, most countries in the world have already made significant progress related to wastepaper recycling technology. This study was conducted to investigate the effects of slow-release fertilizer (SRF) on Chinese cabbage production. Wastepaper was deinked and the...
