Microcosm/field comparison of trace element uptake in crops grown in fly ash-amended soil
TLDR
In this paper, the authors evaluated the accuracy and reliability of intact microcosms to predict trace element enrichment in field-grown crops due to fly ash amendment in both laboratory microcosm and field plots.About:

Journal ArticleDOI
Impact of fly ash incorporation in soil systems.
TL;DR: In this article, the authors explored the possibility of fly ash addition into degraded soils for improving nutritional and physico-chemical properties, and showed that FA could be effectively used in the barren or sterile soil for improving quality and enhancing fertility.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fly ash as a soil ameliorant for improving crop production--a review.
Sudha Jala,Dinesh Goyal +1 more
TL;DR: The purpose of this paper is to review the available information on various attributes of fly ash and explore the possibility of exploiting them for agronomic advantage.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reclamation and revegetation of fly ash disposal sites – Challenges and research needs
TL;DR: The effects of ash weathering and organic matter accumulation over time on the chemical, physical and biological properties of the developing ash-derived soil are not well understood and require further study.
Journal ArticleDOI
A review of physical, chemical, and biological properties of fly ash and effects on agricultural ecosystems
TL;DR: Long-term leaching studies predict that fly ash will lose substantial amounts of soluble salts over time, but simulation models predict that the loss of trace elements from fly ash deposits through leaching will be very slow.
Journal ArticleDOI
Opportunities and challenges in the use of coal fly ash for soil improvements--a review.
TL;DR: Research analysis shows that application of alkaline CFA with or without other amendments can help remediate at least marginally metal contaminated soils by immobilisation of mobile metal forms, and CFA land application with SS or other source of organic carbon, N and P can help effectively reclaim/restore mining-affected lands.

Utilization and Disposal of Fly Ash and Other Coal Residues in Terrestrial Ecosystems: A Review
TL;DR: The physical and chemical properties of coal ashes are dependent on the coal's geological origin, combustion condition, efficiency of particulate removal, and degree of weathering before final disposal as discussed by the authors.
Book ChapterDOI
Boron Nutrition Of Crops
TL;DR: This chapter reviews recent information on the B nutrition of agricultural crops in the light of factors such as availability of soil B to plants and factors affecting it, B-containing fertilizers and methods of application, symptoms and levels of B deficiency and toxicity in plants, and the physiological role of B in plants.
Book ChapterDOI
Agronomic Controls Over the Environmental Cycling of Trace Elements
TL;DR: This chapter examines some developments that may point to the needs for improved agronomic management practices that could regulate the concentrations of trace elements in crop plants and current environmental problems involving specific trace elements.
