It was studied that the characteristics of Bupleurum chinense DC. in nutrition uptake based on potted and field experiment to provide a properly fertilizer application measure. The result showed that the absorption amounts of N, P and K were in the order of K > N > P under field condition. For one-year-old B. chinesnse DC., the average N, P2O5 and K2O absorption per 100 kg dry matter of root were 11.77 kg, 2.43 kg, 14.07 kg respectively; for two-year-old, the average N, P2O5 and K2O absorption amount per 100 kg dry matter of root were 12.11 kg, 2.74 kg, 18.39 kg respectively. The total absorption amount of N, P2O5 and K2O were lower in the first year, while the percentage of content was higher, that was to say, the demand for N, P and K was urgent in the first year. The accumulation peak of N, P2O5 and K2O occurred regreening to later elongation stage in the second year. The ratio of N, P and K were differential in different growth stages.

As global fertilizer application rates increase, high-quality datasets are paramount for comprehensive analyses to support informed decision-making and policy formulation in crucial areas such as food security or climate change. This study aims to fill existing data gaps by employing two machine learning models, eXtreme Gradient Boosting and HistGradientBoosting algorithms to produce precise country-level predictions of nitrogen (N), phosphorus pentoxide (PO), and potassium oxide (KO) application rates. Subsequently, we created a comprehensive dataset of 5-arcmin resolution maps depicting the application rates of each fertilizer for 13 major crop groups from 1961 to 2019.

The Effects of Phosphate Compounds on the Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of Fly Ash Geopolymer Mortars.

Materials (Basel)

November 2024

Department of Building Materials Engineering, Faculty of Civil Engineering, Warsaw University of Technology, Armii Ludowej 16, 00-637 Warsaw, Poland.

Article Synopsis
  • - Poland relies heavily on coal-fired power plants for energy, but there's a growing push to reduce CO emissions, leading to increased use of biomass for energy, which creates fly ash with different chemical properties than coal fly ash.
  • - This study explored how phosphate compounds affect fly ash-based geopolymer mortars made from fly ash derived from both biomass and coal.
  • - Results indicated that adding up to 5% phosphate oxide improved the mechanical strength of the geopolymer mortars over time, although it also significantly increased porosity in the samples.

We introduce NPKGRIDS, a new geospatial dataset, providing for the first time data on application rates for all three main plant nutrients, nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P, in terms of phosphorus pentoxide, PO) and potassium (K, in terms of potassium oxide, KO) across 173 crops as of 2020, with a geospatial resolution of 0.05° (approximately 5.6 km at the equator).

Invertebrate composting quality of the invasive alga Rugulopteryx okamurae, prospects for its bio-recycling, management and circular economy.

PLoS One

October 2024

Laboratorio Biología Marina, Seville Aquarium R + D + I Biological Research Area, Department of Zoology, Faculty of Biology, University of Sevilla, Sevilla, Spain / Marine Biology Station of the Strait, Ceuta, Spain.

Article Synopsis
  • The invasive seaweed Rugulopteryx okamurae has significantly harmed marine ecosystems and public health along the Iberian Peninsula by producing large amounts of biomass.
  • This study explores composting potential using various organisms (earthworms, cockroaches, mealworms, black soldier fly larvae) by comparing compost made from organic kitchen waste alone to compost made with a mix of algae and kitchen waste.
  • Results indicate that while some species (like earthworms and mealworms) manage to produce good-quality compost despite toxins, black soldier fly larvae and cockroaches yielded particularly high-quality compost, supporting their use in future circular economy initiatives.

To increase the limited commercial utility and lessen the negative environmental effects of the massive growth of brown macroalgae, this work illustrates the feasibility of valorizing the invasively proliferated into different value-added products. The proximate analysis recommends its applicability as a solid biofuel with a sufficient calorific value (14.82 ± 0.
