REGYP produces a high quality gypsum products suitable for reuse in plasterboard and cement manufacturing and also soution grade gypsum products. REGYP through its relationships can provide solution grade gypsum for irrigation applications reducing water usage throughout NSW and QLD. By offering a cheaper gypsum product suitable for grinding into solution grade gypsum for irrigation,
ReGyp undertook spreader trials using the Super Ag 10mm screened gypsum product near Cowra NSW. The results off the spreader are substantial, with the Regyp gypsum spreading up to 19m (average 17-19), with various NSW mined gypsum products only achieving 11-13m off the same spreader. This increased spreading distance would equate to approximately $10
Regyp Super Ag Gypsum is more suitable to aerial top dressing due to the material handling properties, spreadability (similar to prilled products) and the increased solubility. In general aerial top-dressing contractors, to tend to use coarser gypsum material to overcome material handling issues and also to deliver the recommended quantities more quickly. The influence of
Gypsum improves the soil structure of hardsetting or crusting sodic clay topsoils, not only by reducing swelling, but also preventing clay dispersion. Sodic topsoil (0-10cm) usually has very poor structure – it is waterlogged when wet and too hard when dry. Sodic soil has too much sodium linking clay particles and not enough calcium. Sodic
Gypsum works on improving spoil structure in two ways. Both depend upon the gypsum being dissolved by rain or irrigation water and entering the soil solution. The first is called the electrolyte effect which is based on the fact that swelling and clay dispersion of sodic clay soils decrease as the salinity of water
Sodicity should not he confused with salinity. Salinity refers to the total amount of salts dissolved in the water in soil, whereas sodicity refers to the exchangeable sodium cations bound to clay particles. Salinity can be reduced by leaching (draining rainwater or non-saline irrigation water through the soil but leaching has little effect on sodicity.
Soils that are most likely to show economic responses to gypsum application have the following features in the topsoil, subsoil or both: high clay content—greater than 30%. particularly greater than 40%, high sodicity level—ESP greater than 5. particularly greater than 10, low salinity level—electrical conductivity of a 1:5 soil: water suspension (EC I:5) less than
ReGyp has partnered with Corkhill Bros of Canberra, to offer plasterboard/gyprock waste and recycling services in the ACT. Corkhill Bros will also distribute Super AG Gypsum from their Canberra sites.
