Nickel Ore Mining Waste as a Promising Source of Magnesium and Silicon for a Smart-Agricultural Management
Published in Frontiers in Environmental Science
Thermomagnesium (TM), a byproduct of Ni ore mining, can be processed as a clean alternative to conventional fertilizers as a source of magnesium (Mg) and silicon (Si) for agriculture. TM positively impacts soil properties and provides nutrients that are available for uptake by plants; however, information on the effects of TM on plant physiology in...
