TL;DR: In this paper, a preparation method of a fertilizer containing sisal residues is described. But the preparation method consists of dewatering and crushing of sisal; mixing and stirring; secondary mixing and mixing; fermenting and drying; cooling and granulating.
Abstract: The invention discloses a preparation method of a fertilizer containing sisal residues, and belongs to the field of fertilizer preparation. The preparation method of the fertilizer comprises the following steps of (1) dewatering and crushing of sisal; (2) mixing and stirring; (3) secondary mixing and stirring; (4) fermenting and drying; (5) cooling and granulating. The fertilizer is prepared from the following raw materials of sisal residues, biogas, urea, sodium humate, potassium sulfate, citric acid, ammonium borate, a fermenting bacterial agent and water. The preparation method has the advantages that by reasonably selecting the components and proper proportional ratio of the fertilizer, the efficiency is high, the pollution is avoided, and the labor cost is reduced.

TL;DR: In this paper , a compression molding technique was used to produce a composite of bisphenol-C-jute/treated jute and their sandwich composites of white coir and brown coir.
Abstract: Epoxy methacrylate of bisphenol-C-jute/treated jute and their sandwich composites of white coir, brown coir, wild almond, bamboo, betel nut, and palmyra were prepared by a compression molding technique under 5MPa pressure and at room temperature for three h. The neat sample showed almost double tensile strength than its jute composite, while it is comparable for treated jute. The composites revealed substantially improved flexural strength compared to neat. The neat, jute/treated jute and their sandwich composites indicated good impact strength, pretty good Barcol hardness, and fairly good electric strength. The neat sample showed excellent volume resistivity, while jute/treated jute and their sandwich composites revealed reasonably good volume resistivity. The composites showed high water ingress tendency, excellent hydrolytic stability, and different diffusivity in different environments at 30oC. Water ingress trend was observed the same for all the composites in different environments, and it is H2SO4 > HCl >NaOH >H2O>NaCl. The sandwich composites may find their applications as low-cost housing and insulating materials and also for marine vessels.

TL;DR: The results showed that adding lime could improve the growth of sisal effectively and inhibit the uptake of heavy metals on Cd polluted soil as discussed by the authors, however, adding lime did not accelerate the sisal transport more Cd when soil Cd was low 50 mg/kg, when soil cd was high 100 mg/ kg, and when sisal could not grow and die.
Abstract: We had studied Cd concentration,in different parts of sisal in cropping experiments,The results were summarized as follows: The sisal growth responses were obviously different on soil Cd at varied levels from 0.0 to 100 mg/kg.At Cd levels of 50 mg/kg,the sisal could grow normally.The sisal growth was limited with the improvement of Cd contents in soils.At Cd levels of 100 mg/kg,the sisal could not grow and die.Meanwhile Cd concentration in shoots was higher than in roots.The results showed that adding lime could improve the growth of sisal effectively and inhibit the uptake of heavy metals on Cd polluted soil.However lime did not accelerate the sisal transport more Cd when soil Cd was low 50 mg/kg,when soil Cd was 100 mg/kg adding lime could effectively improve the growth of sisal.
