Effect of co-composting municipal solid waste with Mg-modified zeolite on soil water balance components using HYDRUS-1D

Application of organic and inorganic amendments is an excellent technique for enhancing available water content in the soils. In this study, municipal waste compost containing three different amounts (i.e., 5%, 10%, and 15% on a wet weight basis) of natural and Mg-modified zeolites were added to a loamy sand soil improving soil water retention. During the plant growth period, the volume of drainage water (DW) and soil water content were measured...
