Soils have a natural characteristic called the cation exchange capacity (CEC) that allows them to hold (and exchange) cations (e.g., Ca+2 or Na+). These cations are held tight enough on the CEC that ...

A slight modification to Bascomb's procedure for determining cation exchange capacity makes it applicable to gypsic soils even when the gypsum content is as high as seventy percent. The modification ...

Researchers determined the variability of cation exchange capacity in different batches of pine bark and studied the influence of particle size, substrate pH, and peat amendment on CEC. Part of the ...

University of Tasmania scientists develop portable ion chromatograph for field use, enhancing student learning and real-world ...

THE cation exchange capacity of soils is due to inorganic constituents such as clay minerals, hydrous oxides, primary and secondary minerals and to organic matter. Estimates of the contribution of ...

Cations are ions that are positively charged. Anions are ions that are negatively charged. Ions are charged atoms or molecules. If a balanced atom loses one or more electrons, it will become a ...

Anion exchange membrane fuel cells (AEMFCs) have gained attention in the process of fuel cell development because they operate in alkaline environments, the redox reaction rate at the electrodes is ...
