    Abstract: This book presents recently-developed crop, soil, and management practices that can be used to improve phosphorous use efficiency in agriculture. Food security highly depends on the availability of plant nutrients such as phosphorus, yet rock phosphate reserves are expected to be exhausted in the next 50–100 years. Moreover, about 80% of the phosphorous fertilizers applied to soils become unavailable to plants due to phosphorous fixation in iron and aluminum oxides in acidic soils and with carbonates in alkaline soils. As a consequence, only 10-15% of applied phosphorous is up taken by crops. Therefore, there is a need for advanced practices for improving phosphorus use efficiency.

    Thermodynamic and Thermophysical Properties of Saline Water : Models, Correlations and Data for Desalination and Relevant Applications (2023)
    Cham :Springer Nature Switzerland :
    Details
    Keywords: Water. ; Hydrology. ; Freshwater ecology. ; Marine ecology. ; Environmental engineering. ; Biotechnology. ; Bioremediation. ; Pollution. ; Refuse and refuse disposal. ; Water. ; Freshwater and Marine Ecology. ; Environmental Engineering/Biotechnology. ; Pollution. ; Waste Management/Waste Technology.
    Description / Table of Contents: Introduction -- Density -- Heat Capacity -- Entropy -- Latent Heat -- Boiling Point Elevation -- Vapor Pressure -- Viscosity -- Thermal Conductivity -- Activity Coefficient -- Osmotic Coefficient -- Surface Tension -- Electrical Conductivity -- Thermal Expansivity -- List of Nomenclature.
    Abstract: This book accommodates the existing correlations, data, and methods for thermodynamic and thermophysical properties of saline water, including multiple components at a wide range of salinity (reaching around 200 g/kg), temperature, and pressure. The correlations of each property are plotted against existing experimental data to judge the comparative accuracy of each within a given specific range of salinity, temperature, and pressure. An assessment to recommend some correlations is also conducted. New correlations for some properties are also proposed. This book helps to provide the saline water properties as needed for engineers, designers, and research for different areas, including desalination and water treatment. All the analytical analysis, thermodynamic analysis, and design models of the desalination technologies depend on saline water properties. As scientists and researchers working on different desalination technologies, the authors found it difficult to find all saline water properties in one source, including multicomponent and binary salty solutions, under different conditions (salinity, temperature, and pressure). Therefore, the authors introduce this book to fill the gap in the open literature. This book compiles the thermodynamic and thermophysical properties of saline water, involving thermodynamic approaches, multicomponent models, and simple correlations and data, comparison between the correlations of properties in figures, recommendation of the most accurate correlations and methods, and the used codes to estimate these correlations and methods. It is expected that this book to be a principal source for all interests in desalination and water treatment subjects.
