Abstract :
Carbonates are one of the most important group of minerals that fix phosphates in soils.Magnesium and silicon are known to reduce the P fixation of calcite. The effect of Mg and Si addition on P sorption-desorption of a mixture of 90percent clay and 10percent calcite was studied. The mixtures were montmorillonite- calcite....
