أكمل القراءةPhosphorus fertilizers are manufactured from rock phosphate (Figure 2.2 ), but rock phosphate itself seldom is used directly as a fertilizer because of its low availability of phosphorus and transport cost. Instead, finely ground rock phosphate is treated with sulfuric acid to yield monocalcium phosphate monohydrate and is known as superphosphate.

أكمل القراءةPhosphorus is naturally present in many foods. You can get recommended amounts of phosphorus by eating a variety of foods, including the following: Dairy products, such as yogurt, milk, and cheese. Grain products, such as bread, tortillas, brown rice, and oatmeal. Meats, poultry, fish, and eggs. Nuts and seeds, such as cashews and sesame seeds.
أكمل القراءةPhosphorus is a chemical element found on Earth in numerous compound forms, such as the phosphate ion (PO43-), located in water, soil and sediments. The quantities of phosphorus in soil are generally small, and this often limits plant growth. That is why people often apply phosphate fertilisers on farmland. Animals absorb phosphates by eating plants or plant-eating animals.
أكمل القراءةThe phosphorus in precipitation provides a significant fraction of the bioavailable phosphorus to fresh and marine waters. To identify the possible sources and interpret the atmospheric deposition processes of phosphorus, we measured the phosphate oxygen isotopes (δ 18 O P) in the precipitation monthly from October 2015 to March 2017 in Daya Bay, South China Sea.
أكمل القراءةObjectives: To determine the available phosphorus in the soil sample by Bray's method. Introduction: A soil analysis is a process by which elements such as P, K, Ca, Mg, Na, S, Mn, Cu and Zn are chemically extracted from the soil and measured for their "plant available" content within the soil sample. Significance of Soil Analysis:
أكمل القراءةPhosphorus found in animal foods is absorbed more easily than phosphorus found in plant foods. Phosphorus that has been added to food in the form of an additive or preservative (inorganic phosphorus) is found in foods such as fast foods, ready to eat foods, canned and bottled drinks, enhanced meats, and most processed foods.

أكمل القراءةPhosphorus is a critical plant nutrient and its key use by phosphate compounds is in the manufacture of fertilizers. Even like there are bio carbon and nitrogen cycles, there is also a phosphorus cycle. Phosphorus is used in the manufacture of safety matches (red phosphorus), pyrotechnics and inflammatory shells.
