Description

Phosphate desorption from soil as a function of pH and temperature, using electrolyte and ion exchange resin methods, has been studied. The resin method is found to be the most suitable method for the extraction of phosphate from the soil. Low pH values and high temperature was observed to enhance the phosphate desorption which is due to an increase in the solubility of calcium phosphate. (author)
