Abstract

This article discusses the improvement of the efficiency of cold water-soluble fertilizers through the use of electrohydraulic technology to facilitate the assimilation of nutrients in plants. The issue of enhancing the efficiency of fertilizing plants through electrohydrolysis using cold water-soluble organic and mineral nutrients is examined. According to the detailed results of nutrient assimilation technologies in plants, the amount of nutrients absorbed by plants constitutes 30-40% of the fertilizer. To enhance the efficiency of nutrient assimilation in plants, it is necessary to break down the nutrients in the cold water-soluble composition into small particles, increase plant absorption capacity, and simultaneously demand the neutralization of bacteria in the cold water-soluble fertilizer composition. By applying the electrohydraulic effect to the cold water-soluble fertilizer, the following parameters were identified for maximum fragmentation of solid particles in the fertilizer composition: discharge voltage of 24 kV, 175 pulses, and a capacitor capacitance of 0.8 μF. This process allows for the fragmentation of solid particles in the fertilizer composition down to 0.002 mm, which is challenging for plants to assimilate on their own. The regime and parameters of electrohydraulic treatment, ensuring the fragmentation of solid particles in cold water-soluble fertilizers down to 0.002 mm, were determined, and this can increase the efficiency of the fertilizer for plant growth by 33-37 qq.
