Nutrient availability in mineral sand tailings amended with yard waste compost and wood ash
… by utilization of yard waste compost and wood ash. Yard waste compost was used to increase the organic matter content and wood to increase pH of the mine tailings. Field research was conducted to determine the effect of yard waste compost and wood ash incorporation into mine tailings on …

Retardance of rainwater-leached metals from CCA-treated (chromated copper arsenate) wood ash in soil
The burning of wood treated with chromated copper arsenate (CCA) preservative produces an ash that contains high concentrations of copper, chromium, and arsenic. The subsequent leaching of these metals from burn sites can produce soil and water contamination. Soils have varying natural abilities to …

Phosphorus adsorption on sandy mine tailings: a comparison of treatments with fertilizers, wood ash, and compost
… (UT), a series of 5 treatments with fertilizers, wood ash, and increasing rates of compost (treatments 1, 3, 6, 8, and 9), and natural soil (NS) were evaluated and compared with regards to P status. Comparisons were based on standard Langmuir adsorption isotherms, Mehlich III extractable-P, and …

A comparison of community composition analyses for the assessment of responses to wood-ash soil amendment by free-living nematodes
… under forest harvesting disturbance and wood ash application. Neither morphological assessment (richness, abundance, diversity) nor molecular assessment (morpho-richness using T-RFLP) was responsive to experimental treatments. Trait-based approaches (Maturity Index (MI) and Body Size …

Fire Assay, Cupellation and the Dissemination of Technical Knowledge in Post-Medieval Europe
… have identified three different recipes: bone ash, wood ash, and a mixture of bone ash and wood ash, which is the dominant recipe. These are all recorded in historical sources, but the analytical study coupled with the new experiments allows further insight into regional manufacturing …

In-Situ Remediation of Small Leaks in Water Pipes: Impacts of Water Chemistry, Physical Parameters and the Presence of Particles
… (~8.8 μ]m), silica particles (~29 μm) and wood ash particles (~160 μm) in Blacksburg, VA tap water at a water pressure of 10 psi increased the fraction of remediated iron pipe leaks of 280–1000 μm diameter sizes. Although the control condition with no added particles for 58 days resulted in …

Quantification and characterisation of nutrients in Senegalia Mellifera milled biomas, feed intake and nitrogen balance in female boer goats fed with Senegalia Melifera bush-based feeds
… fed with Senegalia mellifera bush based feeds. Wood ash (WA), Polyethylene glycol (PEG, 6 000) and Biochar were evaluated as tannin deactivation methods. The milled biomass of S. mellifera was mixed using a clean concrete mixer with the following ingredients: yellow maize meal, liquid molasses; …
