Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEnhanced Efficiency Potassium Fertilizer in Soybean and Cotton CropAdilson Pelá, Mário Miyazawa, Luciano G. Gil et al.Adequate plant nutrition is very important to soybean and cotton crops to express its potential production. Among plant nutrients, potassium (K) plays an important role in plants to achieve high yields. Potassium fertilization is an important tool for soybean and cotton high yields achieving because K absence reduces foliar K content and plant growth. Several strategies have been used to … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 13 Aug 2020 · 7,691 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDetection of Soil Total Nitrogen, Phosphorus and Potassium Content Based on the Spectral Information of Citrus CanopyLin Yunshuo, Li Zhen, Lv Shilei et al.The content of total nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium in the soil is an important basis for calculating the best fertilization amount and realizing the reasonable fertilization of the orange planting soil in time and accurately. In this research, hyper-spectral technology is applied to detect the three soil nutrient elements in the cultivated soil of citrus trees. Four spectral bands with … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 16, Issue 2 · 17 Apr 2020 · 7,805 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMethanol-Based Transesterification Optimization of Waste Used Cooking Oil over Potassium Hydroxide CatalystCholada Komintarachat, Sathaporn ChuepengProblem statement: Waste used Cooking Oil (WCO) harmfully affected to environment and human’s health can be a feedstock for producing biodiesel. Approach: The conversion of Fatty Acid and Free Fatty Acid (FFA) of WCO with 15.0% w/w FFA content to biodiesel was studied through transesterification reactions. This work investigated the effects of alcohol and catalyst quantity, reaction time and temperature … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2010 · 9,739 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleKnowledge Representation of Ion-Sensitive Field-Effect Transistor Voltage Response for Potassium Ion Concentration Detection in Mixed Potassium/Ammonium Ion SolutionsWan Fazlida Hanim Abdullah, Mohd Alaudin Mohd Ali, Md Shabiul Islam, Masuri OthmanProblem statement: The Ion-Sensitive Field-Effect Transistor (ISFET) is a metal-oxide field-effect transistor-based sensor that reacts to ionic activity at the electrolye/membrane/gate interface. The ionic sensor faces issue of selectivity from interfering ions that contribute to the sensor electrical response in mixed solutions. Approach: We present the training data collection of ISFET voltage response for the purpose of post-processing stage neural … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2010 · 7,816 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleProduction of Potassium and Calcium Hydroxide, Compost and Humic Acid from Sago (Metroxylon sagu) WasteC. P. Auldry, O. H. Ahmed, A.M. Nik Muhamad et al.Problem statement: Agriculture waste such as Sago Waste (SW) has a potential to cause pollution when the waste is discarded into rivers. In order to add value to SW, a study was conducted to produce potassium and calcium hydroxide, compost and Humic Acid (HA) from SW. Approach: The SW was air-dried and some grinded. The grinded SW was incinerated at … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 5 · 31 Oct 2009 · 7,583 accessesView PDFCite
