  3. Leaching (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leaching_(chemistry)

    Biological substances can experience leaching themselves, [2] as well as be used for leaching as part of the solvent substance to recover heavy metals. [6] Many plants experience leaching of phenolics, carbohydrates, and amino acids, and can experience as much as 30% mass loss from leaching, [5] just from sources of water such as rain, dew, mist, and fog. [2]

  4. Potassium deficiency (plants) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_deficiency_(plants)

    Potassium deficiency, also known as potash deficiency, is a plant disorder that is most common on light, sandy soils, because potassium ions (K +) are highly soluble and will easily leach from soils without colloids. [1] Potassium deficiency is also common in chalky or peaty soils with a low clay content.

    Pastirma is a type of intermediate moisture food and can be stored for several months in humid climates. The meat is salted and dried to reduce water activity and increase microbial safety. Additionally, nitrites are added for preservation. The final product has 5% salt and a moisture content between 30-35%. [10]

    In agriculture, leaching is the loss of water-soluble plant nutrients from the soil, due to rain and irrigation. Soil structure , crop planting, type and application rates of fertilizers , and other factors are taken into account to avoid excessive nutrient loss.

  8. Potassium cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_cycle

    The hydrosphere is the largest reservoir for potassium, holding an estimated 552.7 x 10 12 tonnes (552.7x10 6 Tg). [2] Leaching and erosion carry 1.4 x 10 9 tonnes (1400 Tg) yr −1 of potassium in soil solution into groundwater, rivers, and oceans. [2] Some potassium in the atmosphere also enters the hydrosphere through precipitation.

  9. Parboiling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parboiling

    Parboiling (or leaching) is the partial or semi boiling of food as the first step in cooking. The word is from the Old French parbouillir , 'to boil thoroughly' but by mistaken association with "part", it has acquired its current meaning.
