Bench-scale soil washing experiments were conducted to remove fluoride from contaminated soils. Five washing solutions including hydrochloric acid (HCl), nitric acid (HNO 3 ), sodium hydroxide (NaOH), sulfuric acid (H 2 SO 4 ) and tartaric acid (C 4 H 6 O 6 ) were tested. The concentration of the washing solutions used ranged from 0.1 to 3 M with a liquid to solid ratio of 10. The soil washing ...

An ideal soil for plant growth contains 50% pore space and 50% solids, with the pore space filled with equal parts air and water. This distribution rarely occurs because pore space varies with soil texture and soil management. For example, tilling increases pore space, while poor drainage and compaction reduce it.

pH is a measure of how acidic or alkaline soil is, and it can affect how much lead is held by the soil. Many gardeners use lime to make soil more alkaline. Adding sulfur or peat will make soil more acidic. Hettiarchchi adds that neutral or slightly alkaline soils hold more lead, so may be preferable if you are concerned about lead in your soils.

Rock powders such as granite dust or greensand can also add a significant amount of potassium to the soil. They're a good long-term solution. Spreading 3-5 tons of rock powder per acre can boost the potassium level for up to 3 or 4 years. Potentially even longer if other sources of potassium are also used.

Phosphorus is one of the macronutrients crops need in order to grow correctly. Depending upon soil moisture, soil temperature, and crop root type, the crop might uptake more or less phosphorus from the soil. This makes it complex to interpret a phosphorus analysis. Interpretation tables vary, depending upon the zones and crops in question.

Root Interception: Root interception is the process in which roots grow through the soil profile to come in contact with nutrients. This process is dependent on the roots to do the work and grow throughout the soil to seek out nutrients. As the root grows through the soil it generally only comes in contact with about 1% of soil volume.
