This episode details the key ingredients in fertilisers: nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. It outlines the chemical production of nitrogen-based fertilisers, specifically ammonium nitrate, highlighting its rich nitrogen content due to its dual sources. We explain that phosphat ...  عرض المزيد

In this episode, we look at plants and nitrogen.Plants require nitrogen to produce proteins necessary for growth. While the atmosphere is full of nitrogen gas, plants cannot directly utilise this form. Instead, they absorb soluble nitrates from the soil. Crop harvesting depletes ...  عرض المزيد

In this episode, we discuss overexploitation and alternative extraction methods. Historical overuse of copper-rich ores has led to a scarcity of these resources. As a result, scientists have developed alternative methods to obtain copper from less concentrated sources. Phytominin ...  عرض المزيد

In this episode, we discuss metal ore extraction.Traditional metal ore extraction, primarily through mining, faces increasing challenges due to the finite nature of these resources. This method, while conventional, carries significant environmental repercussions. These consequenc ...  عرض المزيد

In this episode, we outline the essential stages of sewage treatment. Proper disposal of waste water is crucial for environmental protection. Initially, screening removes large debris, followed by sedimentation which separates solids (sludge) from liquid (effluent). Subsequently, ...  عرض المزيد
