Research on the release of nitrogen compounds from fertilizers
Cápková, Viola ; Řezáčová, Veronika (referee) ; Komendová, Renata (advisor)
This bachelor thesis deals with the monitoring of the release kinetics of ammonium, nitrate and phosphate ions from slow release fertilizers covered in potassium polyacrylate. Fertilizer samples were subjected to different extraction reagents and experimental conditions. The effect of dynamic and pressure conditions in comparison to the static conditions was investigated, same as exposion to distilled, drinking and atmospheric water. The change in concentration of each analyte was measured at regular intervals using molecular spectrophotometry. Distilled water was found to be the best extraction reagent, with no significant difference between the experimental conditions. Slow release of nutrients was proved for two fertilizer samples, the urea fertilizer and it’s modified form.
