  2. Trisodium phosphate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trisodium_phosphate

    Trisodium phosphate was at one time extensively used in formulations for a variety of consumer-grade soaps and detergents, and the most common use for trisodium phosphate has been in cleaning agents. The pH of a 1% solution is 12 (i.e., very basic), and the solution is sufficiently alkaline to saponify grease and oils.

  3. Sodium phosphate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_phosphate

    Sodium dihydrogen phosphate Sodium hydrogen phosphate Trisodium phosphate. A sodium phosphate is a generic variety of salts of sodium (Na +) and phosphate (PO 3− 4). Phosphate also forms families or condensed anions including di-, tri-, tetra-, and polyphosphates. Most of these salts are known in both anhydrous (water-free) and hydrated forms ...

  4. Sodium triphosphate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_triphosphate

    Sodium triphosphate (STP), also sodium tripolyphosphate (STPP), or tripolyphosphate (TPP), [1]) is an inorganic compound with formula Na 5 P 3 O 10. It is the sodium salt of the polyphosphate penta-anion, which is the conjugate base of triphosphoric acid. It is produced on a large scale as a component of many domestic and industrial products ...

  5. Sodium trimetaphosphate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_trimetaphosphate

    Sodium trimetaphosphate (also STMP), with formula Na 3 P 3 O 9, is one of the metaphosphates of sodium. It has the formula Na 3 P 3 O 9 but the hexahydrate Na 3 P 3 O 9 ·(H 2 O) 6 is also well known. It is the sodium salt of trimetaphosphoric acid. It is a colourless solid that finds specialised applications in food and construction industries ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phytoremediation

    Phytoremediation technologies use living plants to clean up soil, air and water contaminated with hazardous contaminants. [1] It is defined as "the use of green plants and the associated microorganisms, along with proper soil amendments and agronomic techniques to either contain, remove or render toxic environmental contaminants harmless". [2]

  7. Plant nutrients in soil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_nutrients_in_soil

    Nutrients in the soil are taken up by the plant through its roots, and in particular its root hairs.To be taken up by a plant, a nutrient element must be located near the root surface; however, the supply of nutrients in contact with the root is rapidly depleted within a distance of ca. 2 mm. [14] There are three basic mechanisms whereby nutrient ions dissolved in the soil solution are brought ...
