Could those with faster connection pls. tell me if this works?

That was great. I had been wanting to see it but could never find a link that was still working.

Yes thanks for this link, I've wanted to see it.
I can see how this would have got you going and I'm glad it did.

Re: The Show that Started it All?

Michaelangelica,

Very interesting forum. I have been following advances in Tera preta since a while, as we are working on a couple of projects related to carbon
One of them is focused in finding valuedded applications to a very young coal formation, very low in thermal quaiity which really is an important source of organic "C" in a clay matrix.
Other project is related to applications to coal dust , and coal slurries from coal washing faclities into agriculture.

With the young coal formation we have been able to innoculate with microorganisms , add nutrients, an use as soil ammendment with good results

Smile Re: The Show that Started it All?

Somewhers here (in this TP sub-forum) is a brief discussion on coal,as a possible soil amwendment
Especially high humic acid and 'wet' coals like those brown coals of Victoria, Australia
Your imput will be welcomed

The use of slurries etc would be very interesting

Soil amendment might be the future for coal seeing new Zealand is now banning it!

Re: The Show that Started it All?

Hi,
We are actually using a "Tropical turba" , which is not the usual peat, but the result of very young deposit of a forest (200.000 years). We crush , and compost with chicken manure and/orother N sources and making a good ammenment. We have access to slurries of coal washing facilities of anthracitic coals, which are washed before entering into Coke ovens. We think , we can also do some microbiological degradation, and use for soil ammendents. Good S, and other inerts there. Any experience in Australia wih those slurries???
