To dissolve out; -- often used with out; as, to leach out alkali from ashes.
To part with soluble constituents by percolation.
To dissolve by the action of a moving liquid. For example, high purity water leaches trace impurities from glass vessels.
The process by which percolating water removes nutrients from the soil
Dissolving, or moving, nutrients and minerals from the soil by running water through the soil.
To dissolve from a rock. For example, when acidic water passes through fractured rocks, soluble minerals leach, or dissolve, from the rocks.
Removal of soluble constituents from ashes or soil by percolation of water.
To dissolve and remove the soluble constituents of a rock or soil.
migration of atoms or compounds from mine rocks or other substances through the action of water, acid or other solvent.
It is a chemical process where certain components of the ore are dissolved in order to extract and concentrate valuable minerals.
cause (a liquid) to leach or percolate
remove substances from by a percolating liquid; "leach the soil"
To remove soluble substances from the soil by percolating water through the soil
The process by which soluble chemical components are dissolved and carried through soil by water or some other percolating liquid.
To subject to the action of percolating liquid in order to separate the soluble compounds.
to draw out or remove the oil from the soil or sediments, often a result of the action or percolation of water.
Penetrate gradually: chemicals that leach into soil can eventually reach groundwater supplies and contaminate them.
To remove components from the soil by the action of water trickling through.
The process of removing excess salts and minerals from the soil by a series of repeated flushings with water.
To dissolve contaminants by percolating liquid in order to separate the soluble components.
to dissolve minerals or metals out of ore with chemicals. Heap leaching gold involves the percolation of a cyanide solution through crushed ore heaped on an impervious pad or base
to remove substances by percolating liquid, through a grow medium in the case of hydroponics.
Water that collects contaminants as it trickles through wastes, pesticides, or fertilizers. Leaching may occur in farming areas, feedlots, and landfills, and may result in hazardous substances entering surface water, ground water, or soil.
To pass out or through soil by water percolation. Leaching- The removal of salts and trace elements from soil by the downward percolation of water.
The process in which liquid passes through an object, and particles from the object dissolve into or mix with the liquid.
To dissolve and carry away.
1. To cause a liquid to filter down through some material. 2. To subject to the washing action of a filtering liquid. 3. To remove or separate solids from liquids, in a septic system, by percolating through the soil.
With regard to African Violets, to remove some substance from the soil by drenching it with water and letting it drain. This is most often done to flush out excess fertilizer salts, to remove excess elements which might be causing a nutrient imbalance or to correct an imbalance in the soil pH. For this, a quantity of five times the pot's volume is usually recommended.
The movement of soluble components, such as chemicals, through the soil profile by the actions of percolating water.
Dissolve or wash out soluble components of soil by heavy watering.
To extract a soluble component from a mixture by the process of percolation.
To dissolve metals or minerals out of ore by use of chemical solutions, acids, or water.
To dissolve out by the action of a percolating liquid.
to dissolve out soluble parts from (ashes, rocks, ores, or other matter) by running water or other liquid through slowly; to lose soluble parts as water or other liquid passes through. [AHDOS
