Book Sulfur  Energy  and Environment

Download or read book Sulfur Energy and Environment written by Beat Meyer and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-09-11 with total page 461 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sulfur, Energy, and Environment is a guide to the properties of sulfur; its three important compounds; and a review of the production, use, and recovery of sulfur in relation to energy production and environmental protection. After a brief introduction to the history of sulfur, the chemical properties of the element and some important compounds are reviewed, using common analytical methods. Sulfur is a strategic chemical in many modern applications and may make headway into high-volume non-chemical uses as it is being modified according to our changing technology and needs. The sources of sulfur and where it frequently occurs is explained. This discussion is followed by citing reviews of the four most important cycles, that is, the global sulfur cycle, hydrosphere, atmospheric sulfur budget, and the anthropogenic sulfur cycle. Sulfur production methods, coal combustion chemistry, and flue gas desulfurization are then described. The many uses of sulfur are described, including in medicine, agriculture, chemical industry, and the plastic industry. However, throughout the production of sulfur, problems affecting the environment occur, so environmental control and legislation are also discussed. Finally, the trends of sulfur research, production, use and recovery, role of chemistry, and the future overall area where science, energy, chemistry, and the environment exist together are presented. Chemists and chemistry students, industrialists, and environmental planners will find this guide to sulfur helpful. Lecturers in chemistry and researchers in the many fields of application of sulfur will likewise benefit from it.

For individuals who study the science of soil, and those who make a profession of it.

Book Elemental Sulfur Effects on Nutrient Availability in Organic Soil Having Variable Calcium Carbonate

Download or read book Elemental Sulfur Effects on Nutrient Availability in Organic Soil Having Variable Calcium Carbonate written by Avjinder Singh Kaler and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Organic soil subsidence is lowering the soil depth above the underlying limestone bedrock in the Everglades Agricultural Area. Incorporation of Ca carbonate into the root zone of soil from the underlying limestone increases pH and reduces availability of phosphorus and micronutrients to crops. Elemental S has been recommended at a rate of 560 kg ha-1 at soil pH> 6.6 to reduce soil pH and therefore increase nutrient availability to crops. There is a need to determine the effectiveness of elemental S in conditions of high pH and high Ca carbonate levels. The objective of this study was to determine elemental S effects on nutrient availability and sugarcane yield on organic soil having variable Ca carbonate content. A factorial pot experiment of 4 elemental S rates (0, 90,224, and 448 kg ha-1) and 3 organic soil types varying in added Ca carbonate (0%, 12.5%, and 50% by volume) was established using a randomized complete block design with four replications. Sulfur application had limited effects on soil pH reduction and therefore failed to enhance nutrient availability. Sulfur application increased sulfate concentration in soils that could be at risk for export from the field. With increasing the Ca carbonate in soil, pH increased and nutrient availability decreased, except for Mn. The expected reason for increased manganese availability was increased soil moisture associated with reducing conditions due to changes in physical properties of the soil with increased levels of Ca carbonate. High soil pH resulted in Mn and P deficiencies in the plants, and soil pH and Mn were important factors that influenced sugarcane yield.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aimed at taking the mystery out of soil science, Soils: Principles, Properties and Management is a text for undergraduate/graduate students who study soil as a natural resource. Written in a reader-friendly style, with a host of examples, figures and tables, the book leads the reader from the basics of soil science through to complex situations, covering such topics as: the origin, development and classification of soil physical, chemical and biological properties of soil water and nutrient management management of problem soils, wetland soils and forest soils soil degradation Further, the ecological and agrological functions of soil are emphasized in the context of food security, biodiversity and climate change. The interactions between the environment and soil management are highlighted. Soil is viewed as an ecosystem itself and as a part of larger terrestrial ecosystems.
