Adsorption of pollutants from liquid swine manure through the application of metabasalt rock powder
(Springer Netherlands, 2022)
Adequate animal manure disposal became a challenge in agriculture. Liquid swine waste (LSW), easily used in agriculture, presents disadvantages due to the high volume and low nutrient concentrations. Metabasalt powder, a ...
Evaluation of Soil Re-mineralizer from By-Product of Volcanic Rock Mining: Experimental Proof Using Black Oats and Maize Crops
(Universidad de la Costa, 2019-08-08)
This study was focused on physical, petrographical, mineralogical, and chemical characterization of a volcanic-rock mining by-product (dacite rock), as well as on greenhouse experiment with black oats and maize crops to ...
Sustainable release of macronutrients to black oat and maize crops from organically-altered dacite rock powder
(Corporación Universidad de la Costa, 2021)
By-products from the dairy industry and mining activities represent a great environmental overload, which justify research for value-added reuse of these by-products (dairy sludge and dacite rock powder). Dairy sludge is ...
Pharmaceuticals as emerging pollutants: case naproxen an overview
(Corporación Universidad de la Costa, 2022)
Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), including naproxen (NP), diclofenac, ibuprofen, etc., are widely used for fever and pain relief. NP is one of the most widely consumed drugs in the world, because it is available ...
Application of Andesite Rock as a Clean Source of Fertilizer for Eucalyptus Crop: Evidence of Sustainability
(Universidad de la Costa, 2020-02-05)
Global demineralization of agricultural soils due to unsustainable use of highly soluble fertilizers and intensive exploitation is an issue of increasing concern. Methods of remineralization include the application of ...
Understanding the mobility of potential nutrients in rock mining by-products: An opportunity for more sustainable agriculture and mining
(Universidad de la Costa, 2020-03-25)
The increase in demand for highly soluble fertilizers brings a global sustainability concern. Alternative sources for traditional fertilization are therefore needed. Rock powder use has been proposed as an alternative ...
Release kinetics of multi-nutrients from volcanic rock mining by-products: evidences for their use as a soil remineralizer
(Corporación Universidad de la Costa, 2021-01-10)
Great quantities of stone by-products are stored alongside different exploiting mines in south Brazil, which are becoming an unsustainable environmental issue. Powder materials of andesite and dacite rocks were obtained ...
