Description
~3~
The invention relates to a process for treating vegetation to fertilize it, including treating damaged vegetation.
The term "damaged vegetation" used herein includes damaged plants, in particular tall trees, which have been damaged by industrial pol]u-tion or environmental poisons, such as "acid rain" etc. The process of the invention has also been success-fully used when the damage to the vegetation is not due to pollution but, for example, due to plant disease and/or inadequate soi] conditions. In recent times, even in regions of reduced industrial pollution impact, significant damage to the plant life has been observed. According to the present state of the art, damage to vegetation is caused by industrial waste products, which act as pollutants, such as for example sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide. Such oxides are formed during combustion and, after uncontrolled emission into the atmosphere, may spread over a wide region.
The invention seeks to reduce or arrest the already existing damage to plant life and further to reduce or prevent future damage, so that the heavily affected vegetation can better withstand such pollution loads.
According to one aspect the invention provldes a process for fertilizing vegetation comprising the steps of applyiny nutrient substances and trace elemen-ts to the vegetation, said nutrient substances and trace elements being applied by means of a reaction of a pyrotechnic composition, which reaction is initiated at the location of the vegetation.
According to another aspect the invention provides a composition for fertilizing vegetation, which composition includes ~;~
~3~
nutrient substance and trace elements for the vegetation and also include pyrotechnical means for producing an aerosol by combustion, said pyrotechnical means being in the form of a compressed pyro-technical composition.
The invention relates to a process for providing an acid neutralizing and nutrient material feed to regions having damaged vegetation. The process of the invention is particularly useful in forestry and agriculture as well as a preventive for avoiding damage to vegetation. Such damage occurs in particular when so-called "acid rain" falls. Acid rain is formed as a consequence of the acidizing of materials which are emi-tted during the comubstion of fossil combustible materials. Sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide are emitted into the atmosphere, as a result of which a strong acidification of -the polluting sediments occurs.
Depending upon metereological conditions these polluting materials can be dispersed to regions that are quite remote from the point of origin of the pollution, so that in modern times "acid rain"
or snow can precipitate even in very remote regions having no dense population or industrial concentration. The adverse effect of these polluting materials on the seas, rivers, forests and agriculture and soil in general is quite important and apparent.
As long as the polluting materials remain, for example, in the needles and/or leaves of plants and trees they cause significant damage. Such damage is most pronounced in those regions in which the soil is already acidified, particularly in calcium-poor soil or soil which has become acid due to natural causes. Acid soil, which has become acidic because of sediments and precipitation, ~3~ 26130-36 leads ln general to reduced crop yields, if large quantities of calcium are not fed continuously to the soil. As a consequence of air pollution caused by industrial usage, poisonous heavy metals - 2a -~3~
and diverse organic compounds can form part of the acid sediments deposited on the soil, which i.s probably the cause for recently observed withering and dying away of forests. This is due to the fact that the nutrients which are needed for the growing of needles and roots of trees, such as calcium, magnesium, zinc, manganese, etc. are washed out.
The invention starts from the recognition that a rapid and lasting remedy is in particular possible by compensating for the adverse influence of the polluting substances by measures taking place in the atmosphere proper and advantageously in the region of the atmosphere which adjoins the affected soil.
It is possible to admix with the soil known additive nutrients and/or substances which counteract the polluting substances in the region in which the plant and vegetation damage has occurred, as for example by means of artificial dung in agriculture. However, such a process has the disadvantage that the absorption of these substances by the plants and vegetation must occur in the usual way via their root structure. This process is too slow and the frighteningly rapid progression of the damage to the plant life cannot be arrested adequately in this fashion.
In accordance with the invention the substance or combination of substances which favor the vegetation, and which act as nutrients or as acid-neutralizers, can be applied in the form of aerosol sprays. These aerosol spraysare advantageously produced immediately at the location of the damaged plants,as will be described hereinbelow. The aerosols contain nutrients, such as calcium, magnesium, as well as zinc or other trace elements, which are absorbed directly by the plants via their needles or leaves. Those portions of the aerosol components which are deposited on the ground are then available to the plant or trees, as a supplement via the conventional absorption path, that is via ox their roots.
It has been found particularly advantageous and inexpensive to use aerosols which are produced by means of a pyrotechnical process, whereby particu].arly flexible application modes are possible. Use of aerosols produced by pyrotechnical means makes it possible to apply suitable substances or combinations of substances, at each required location, within, outside or above a growing plant, in particular in forests for the purpose of treating these plants. For example, extended regions can be treated by means of slowly descending aerosol clouds which sediment on orest regions, the aerosol clouds being produced within or above the forest region. Conventional mechanical arrangements for applying aerosol clouds in this way are not suitable, because the conventional processes use, for example, for supplementing calcium soil content conventional agricultural vehicles whose use in a forest, even in paths traversing the forest, is limited and additionally their use is costly and time-consuming.
Suitable pyrotechnical compositions can, in contradistinction thereto, be deposited without great difficulties even in inaccessible forest regions and if required by remote ignition.
It is within the scope of the process of this invention to apply aerosol sprays which contain the required substances, that is preferably calcium and magnesium compounds, in the form of oxides, hydroxides or chlorides, so that the substances can be directly absorbed by the needles and leaves of the trees and plan-ts.
Arrangements for carrying out the process of the invention have been found to be particularly advantageous when they consist of pyrotechnical compositions in the form of pressed bodies having the following ingredients ~3~ 7 Ingredient Percent by weight calciwn oxide 30-70%
calcium peroxide 20-70%
calcium hydroxide 10-70%
magnesium 5-30%
potassium perchlorate 5-30%
potassiwn chloride 3-30%
hexachloroethane 0-20%
PVC
zinc peroxide 0-5%
manganese dioxide 0-5%
copper oxide 0-5%
Preferred compositions are those of Examples 1, 2 and 3 as set forth n the following table:
Ingredient Percent by weight (chemical composition) Example 1 Example 2 Example 3 calciwm oxide 40 30 50 calcium peroxide - 20 calcium hydroxide 10 magnesium 20 20 20 potassiun perchlorate - 15 15 potassium chloride - 10 3 hexachloroethane 20 zinc peroxide 5 3 2 manganese dioxide 4 copper oxide ~3~
The chemicals are mixed with each other and are compressed into a pressed body about 300 - 800 bar). The pressed body is simultaneously combined with a known pyrotechnical ignition substance. Suitable ignition substances are published in the book of Dr. Herbert Ellern "Military and Civilian Pyrotechnics" New York 1968 pp. 378. The following is a specific example: 40% silicon, 54% potassium nitrate, 6% charcoal. 70 parts of this mixture is added to 30 parts of a solution of 4 parts NC ~nitrocellulose) in 96 parts acetone. This starter mixture is compressed into a pressed body which is mechanically combined with the pyrotechnical composition. All percentages and parts are by weight.
After ignition the pyrotechnical composition reacts while forming a white cloud aerosol), which consists principally of oxides and chlorides of calcium and magnesium. To this must be added the oxides, respectively chlorides of calcium and trace elements. During the reaction there occur temperatures in the order of magnitude of 2000C. and a residue remains, which consists primarily of magnesium oxide. It has been found to be particularly advantageous that the pH-value of the aerosol composition produced in this manner lies between 5 and 9, so that damage to the vegetation is avoided.
Aerosols for use in this application have been found particularly suitable when the aerosol spray particles are of the order of 1 micrometer and smaller in magnitude, because with such sprays the contact time of the aerosol cloud with the components of the atmosphere adjoining the ground and the vegetation is as long as possible, and additionally such aerosol sprays are easily absorbed by plants.
Disregarding for the moment the additional feeding of essential nutrients which is made possible by the process of this invention, the process also achieves a cleaning of the air in the immedlate vicinity of the plants, as a consequence of chemical reaction of the aerosol-components with any poisonous and polluting substances that are present in the atmosphere, to achieve their neutralization.
As has been mentioned hereinabove, during the combustion of the pyrotechnical pressed body very high temperatures are achieved, which would at first impression require a very resistant and therefore expensive casing.
However, in order to make the application of the process as inexpensive as possible so that it may be applied on as wide a region as possible, which, in view of present-day pollution damage is unfortunately necessary, there has been proposed in lieu of the massive casing packaging to prepare the pressed bodies without casings. The pressed bodies are therefore placed, for example, for combustion directly on the ground where the plants are to be treated. In particular the pressed body can be put in the ground in such a way that for purposes of emission of the aerosols a sufficiently large opening is left in the ground. A simple and inexpensive storing of the pressed body in a water vapor-proof synthetic bag is also possible.
