Dissolution is almost impossible under alkaline conditions so if lime were applied to a soil with moderate to high pH, the calcium carbonate would remain largely insoluble. Calcium would not be available to plants and the lime would have little impact on soil pH or soil structure. What does gypsum contain? Gypsum, as an agricultural mineral, consists of calcium sulphate. Gypsum has no

In Pakistan 6.2-6.67 m ha land is affected with various levels of salinity, but having predominance of sodium salts with varying levels and mixtures of salts (GOP 1996, Khan 1998). Various amendments like gypsum, sulphur, acids, press mud and farm yard manure (FYM) may be used for reclamation of these soils (Muhammad 1990

Gypsum is moderately water-soluble (~2.0–2.5 g/l at 25 °C) and, in contrast to most other salts, it exhibits retrograde solubility, becoming less soluble at higher temperatures. When gypsum is heated in air it loses water and converts first to calcium sulfate hemihydrate, (bassanite, often simply called "plaster") and, if heated further, to anhydrous calcium sulfate ().

Gypsum belongs to the group of salts with a low solubility in aqueous solution and therefore is less mobile than the more soluble ones. However, when other ions are present, its solubility can be significantly increased. For example, when halite, NaCl, is present, the solubility of gypsum can be increased by a factor four depending on the concentration ratio of the two salts.

17/02/2017· The analysis of published data and our experimental results showed that the existing estimates of gypsum solubility in water (C m ↑) at 25°C range from 0.0147 to 0.0182 M. Such a scatter (more than 20%) is the result of a combined influence of experimental conditions and ability of gypsum to form supersaturated solutions. This influence appears most noticeable during gypsum dissolution in a

Gypsum rock is usually white or colourless, although it may sometimes have grey, yellow, pink, or brown hues. Gypsum is much softer than minerals of similar colour, such as calcite or quartz, and is the only one that can be scratched with a fingernail. If a piece

However, if soil is alkaline because of high bicarbonate ions, or if irrigation water contains bicarbonate, the soluble calcium in gypsum reacts with the bicarbonate to form insoluble calcium carbonate. The pH of the soil is decreased to the range of 7.5 to 7.8 when bicarbonate is reduced. Also, limestone does not move through the soil to lower depths. Gypsum is the best way to supply calcium

Gypsum is the commonly used chemical for the amelioration of alkaline soils. Calcium in gypsum replaced the excessive amounts of sodium in the alkaline soil, which leads to improvements in permeability and tilth as well as reduction in pH [3][4][5].In the reclamation of alkaline soils, pyrite waste products from mine tailings might be an alternative treatment agent.
