ProRep Sedge Peat, 10 Litre

Product Information

low-lying type peat – the peat formed of vegetation eutrophic type in the Botanical composition of which is not more than 10% of residues oligotrophic type. This is completely decomposed peat has a neutral reaction ph of 4.2 to 5.5. An auger was used to collect one soil core (0–25 cm depth, 5 cm diameter) from the amended zone of each of three randomly selected trees in each plot on October 11, 2010, October 13, 2011, and October 15, 2012. After drying, the soil samples were ground to pass through a 0.25-mm sieve and stored in sealed polyethylene bags at 4°C until chemical analysis. This can lead to the loss of biodiversity and the degradation of important wetland habitats. Water Quality Impact Schneider, J.; Weis, R.; Männer, C.; Kary, B.; Werner, A.; Seubert, B.J.; Riede, U.N.

The harvesting of peat moss can destroy these habitats and disrupt the delicate balance of these ecosystems. Reed peat – peat lowland grass group in the Botanical composition is from 35 to 65% of the herbaceous residues, among which more than 35% of the cane, and not more than 15 % of the wood. Peat moss is also found in other regions of the world, including South America, Africa, and Australia.

As a result, the partially decomposed organic matter is preserved and transformed into peat moss. Types of Peat Moss Classification of peat. Types, subtypes, groups and types of peat. Equestrian, transitional and lowland peat. Soluble Na + and K + were determined with a flame photometer, and Ca 2+ and Mg 2+ were measured by titration with EDTA [27]. The CEC was determined with a 1 M ammonium chloride solution in ethanol/water (60∶40, v/v) at pH 8.2 [28]. Extracted Na was determined by flame photometry.

Peatlands are unique and fragile ecosystems that provide important habitat for many plant and animal species. The harvesting of peat moss can disrupt the natural water balance of these ecosystems, leading to changes in water quality and quantity. Pine peat – peat wood group, in the Botanical composition is from 40 to 100 % of the wood residues, which are dominated by the remains of pine wood. The mining industry is often painted as anti-environment, but that is an unfair characterization. In the U.S., mine water must be treated to remove contaminants, including trace metals, before it can be discharged into the environment. While conventional treatment is labor intensive and expensive, peat-based sorption materials have proven to be a less expensive and easy-to-deploy treatment alternative.Effects of organic amendments on (A) bulk density, (B) total porosity, (C) electrical conductivity (EC), and (D) exchangeable sodium percentage (ESP) in saline soil. Peat extraction is carried out in an open way, because all peat deposits are located on the earth’s surface. There are two basic schemes of peat extraction: relatively thin layers from the surface of the earth and deep pits to the full depth of the peat layer. The first of these schemes, peat is extracted, cutting the top layer, according to the second excavator (or lump) method. The degree of decomposition of peat ranges from 1 to 70 %. Depending on the degree of peat decomposition distinguish the poorly decomposed peat (20 %), sredneslozhivsheysya (20-35 %) and silnoroslye (over 35 %). The maximum value of the degree of decomposition is found in wood and wood-grass peat group, the minimum from the moss. The detrimental impact of peat extraction on the environment and climate has been recognised for many years and it is expected that the practice will be banned at some point in the not too distant future. The Government stated in May 2021, supported by the wildlife conservation organisations, that sales of peat compost to gardeners will be banned from 2024, with the intention of eliminating all peat use by amateur gardeners, industrial growers and procurers by 2030 at the latest, by switching to more sustainable, peat-free alternatives.

However, the use of peat must be reduced, because it is considered as a nonrenewable resource [19]. Thus, an alternative to peat must be developed to achieve the function of peat amendment and meet consumer’s environmental concern. Furfural residue (FR) is the by-product of furfural production; furfural is mainly obtained from corn cobs by acid catalysis at high temperature. Among organic amendments, FR has the highest potential for low-cost, high-volume production [20]. Because the cellulose and lignin in corn cobs are relatively stable, FR is enriched in cellulose and lignin [21]. The advantage of organic amendments (GWC, SP, and FR) is that it is unlikely to contain microorganisms that are pathogenic to humans, which is an important concern of such soil amendment [18], [22]. Wood residues constitute a significant source of soilless growing media. These materials are generally bi-products of the lumber industry and are readily available in large quantities. Nitrogen depletion by soil microorganisms, during the decomposition process, is one of the primary problems associated with these materials. However, supplemental applications of N to the growing media can make most wood residues valuable amendments. Bakšienė, E.; Ciūnys, A.

Granular reed-sedge peat has been used successfully in both passive and active water treatment systems in industrial applications across the United States.
