The aim of this study of patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) is to assess the safety of daily consumption of walnuts on the physiological levels of phosphorous, potassium, parathyroid hormone (PTH), and fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23), and to assess the short-term benefits of this intervention on risk factors associated with cardiovascul...

Artificial humic acids (A-HA) made from biomass in a hydrothermal process turn otherwise highly insoluble phosphates (e.g. iron phosphate as a model) into highly available phosphorus, which contributes to the fertility of soils and the coupled plant growth. A detailed electron microscopy study revealed etching of the primary iron phosphate crystals...

AbstractCr–P–W protective coatings are obtained by electrodeposition from water–dimethylformamide solutions based on chromium(III) chloride, with the addition of sodium phosphinate and sodium tungstate. The resulting alloys contained up to 8 wt % of phosphorus and 1.5 wt % of tungsten, as well as some carbon. The resulting coatings are characterize...
Rural runoff with abundant nutrients has become a great threat to aquatic environment. Hence, more and more attention has been focused on nutrients removal. In this study, an improved aerobic/anaerobic/aerobic three-stage water spinach constructed wetland (O-A-O-CW) was used to improve the removal of nitrogen and phosphorus of rural runoff. The rem...
Potassium (K+) and phosphorous (Pi) are two of the most important nutrients required by plants and there is an interest in studying how they are acquired. Most studies have focused on the characterization of the mechanisms involved in K+ and Pi uptake and their distribution within the plants, as well as the regulatory mechanisms involved. Evidence ...

In recent years, the international coking coal market is experiencing an acute shortage of coal supply which has caused a fluctuation in its price. Degradation of coke, in the blast furnace, is largely controlled by its inherent mineral matter. Phosphorous occurs in all coals in minor or trace amounts and is an important parameter to coal users, pa...
In arid and semiarid environments, saline wetlands are both high-value habitats threatened by landscape transformations, and a constraint to agricultural production. There is a lack of knowledge about nutrient distribution in intermittently flooded environments subjected to soil and water salinity. The aim of this work was to characterize soil and ...
In waste water treatment using biological treatment processes normally phosphorous, nitrous compounds as well as organic matterare removed.It is also important to remove or kill pathogens that otherwisecould cause diseases. The surplus of bio-sludge is used to produce biogas. In thepaper four different alternatives for system design and operations ...
Av samtliga globala processer som reglerar jordsystemet är de biogeokemiska flödena av kväve (N) och fosfor (P) mest påverkade av mänskliga aktiviteter. Inerta former av N och P omvandlas till reaktiva former som sprids i miljön, där de orsakar eutrofiering och påverkar marina ekosystem negativt. Majoriteten av de reaktiva N- och P-formerna används...
