A ready reckoner for the amount of N, P and K removed by certain representative crops is shown in Table 5.2. The requirement for P and K may be expressed in terms of the element rather than the oxide (P205 or K20). P205 contains 0.43 units of P K20 contains 0.83 units of K. The depletion of N, P and K from the grain of wheat, barley and oats is pro rata for yield, but the nutrient composition of the straw is different, oat straw containing very much more potassium than wheat or barley straw. Potatoes and kale are very much more exhaustive of N and K than the cereal crops.

Potatoes are an excellent source of carbohydrates and contain significant amounts ofphosphorus, potassium, calcium, and vitamins, especially vitamin C. Potato protein content, at over 10%, is relatively close to that of wheat flour (11%) also, thanks to their lysine, methionine, cystine and cysteine contents, potatoes are a valuable supplement to cereal proteins. For instance, potatoes provide a significant source of proteins (10-15% of total requirements), a major source of vitamin C, an important source of energy, and also minerals like iron and other vitamins such as thiamin, nicotinic acid, riboflavin, and pro-vitamin A (p carotene) (Salunkhe and Kadam, 1991).

Growth regulators can influence a plant s absorption of minerals from the soil. The uptake of potassium by wheat, for example, is accelerated by treating the plant with gibberellic acid. The uptake of both nitrogen and phosphorus by wheat and soybean plants is enhanced by treatment with 2,4-D. 

Based on the analyses of the trace contaminants conducted on the wheat millfeed-derived products, numerous potential problem components were identified, relative to catalyst activity (3). These components (shown in Table 1) include sulfate (potential for metal sulfide formation) calcium, magnesium, and phosphate (potential for catalyst pore plugging by insoluble salt precipitation) sodium or potassium (alkali attack on the catalyst support) organic nitrogen components, such as amino acids (thiol... 

Wheat noodles are consumed in large amounts in China, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Taiwan, Singapore, Hong Kong and the Philippines.509 Oriental wheat noodles may be divided broadly into two classes the Japanese white salted noodle and the Chinese (Cantonese) yellow alkaline noodle. The first class is made from wheat flour (100 parts), water (35 parts) and table salt (1-2 parts) whereas the second class is made by replacing table salt with a mixture of sodium and potassium carbonates, often referred to as kansui. Within the two classes, the five popular types of noodles are raw wet (boiled) dried instant fried and steamed and dried.509,532,533... 

The major technical barrier associated with biomass combustion systems is the formation of tenacious deposits on heat transfer surfaces caused by the unique high-temperature chemistry of biomass ash. Many types of biomass used in combustion systems contain alkali metal species sodium, potassium, and calcium. The ash content of woody biomass is quite low and not a problem. The ash content of agricultural residues such as wheat straw, rice straw, com stover, and alfalfa stems can be quite high, on the order of 5 percent or up to 20 percent for rice straw and rice husks. The presence of alkali metals in conjunction with the high silica content of some biomass ashes can lead to molten ash at combustion temperatures.553-658 In some cases, the K, Si, and A1 contents are such that very low melting-point eutectic mixtures can form. The materials can be fluid at combustion temperatures, but form glasslike deposits on colder downstream surfaces such as heat exchanger tubes.
