Abstrakt
Sapropel
is
an organic
sediment from
fresh
water bodies that is
widely
distributed
in
the northern regions of the w
orld. The distribution and
unique properties
of sapropel
make
it an
important
natural
resource that can
be used in agriculture
,
horticulture, forestry
and
farming
directly as obtained.
The aim of this study was to investigat
e the extraction possibilities of
sapropel and potential applications of its extracts. Humic substances constitute an important
ingredient of sapropel, and they
can be extracted by mild alkaline extraction. Humic substances
from peaty sapropel have signifi
cant differences in composition and properties, thus
demonstrating the impact of precursor biological materials on the properties of humic substances
formed in the humification process
.
