Analytical Study On The Effect Of The Different Water Conditioners On The Constituent Of Water Used In Agriculture From Different Sources

Abstract

This work has been carried out to investigate the effect of magnetic and electrocatalytic water conditioners on the chemical and physical properties of saline irrigation water (EC>2500 ppm). The results showed no clear difference when the two saline well water samples were analyzed before and after both conditioners. The conditioned and unconditioned water were used to irrigate saline-sandy and sodic-clay soil then the tested soils were analyzed after five and ten irrigation with respect to exchangeable ions, micro and microelement, SAR PAR ESP and EC. The results indicated some improvement in soil sections which were irrigated with corulitiond rather: than_ uncon_ditioned water. Finally. the conditioned and unconditioned water were used to irrigate radish and kidney bean, which have sensitivity to saline water. The chlorophyll analysis and the determination of dry and wet weigh illustrated that the use of conditioned water lead to the improvement in plants growth.
