Production of Agricultural Water and Nutrients from Brackish Water Sources

Abstract

AbstractArid agricultural regions worldwide face critical challenges of water scarcity and soil salinization, significantly reducing crop production. This study investigates a circular economy and systems approach to desalination with nutrient recovery (...Practical ApplicationsThe achievement of sustainable agriculture in arid and semiarid agricultural regions worldwide requires advancements in water resources and salinity management strategies because these regions are increasingly experiencing water ...The illustration “Quenching Agriculture Water and Nutrient Scarcity” depicts a process in which brackish water enters an “ion separation” system. This system consists of multiple treatment stages. During ion separation, the essential plant nutrients, ...
