BRICS Solution Awards

Innovative product for soil health and quality improvement .

Problem and implemented solution

Soil pollution with salts of heavy metals, radionuclides, pesticides and other pollutants. Intensive farming leads to deep degradation of agricultural soils: changes in granulometric composition and hydrological properties, against the background of negative climate change. Solution - the application of pyrrolidinium polymers binds salts of heavy metals and radionuclides, which reduces up to 3-5 times the transfer to the above-ground part of plants and agricultural products. Properties of polymers are provided by unique technology of synthesis and developed method of application.
