- Abstract
Recently, an optimal solution to choosing ice-snow melting materials is still in progress. The major focus is shifted on the economic value, then proceeding with an environmental value. In order to select proper dissolution reagents, it is necessary to conduct tests on establishing their efficiency and a direct and indirect impact on the environment. Only responsible authorities will be able to take appropriate decisions carrying an economically-focused and environmentally-friendly character. This article describes bishofit - one of possible de-icing agents, discusses the importance of herbal plants on roadsides and presents experimental tests on how bishofit affects plants and their growth. The results of the study showed that among laboratory-grown white clover, Kentucky bluegrass and perennial ryegrass the latter (up to 50%) had the highest germination in the soil contaminated with bishofit (9-46 ml). Within a four-week period of study, perennial ryegrass reached the maximum height of the ground segment (6.1 cm) in the soil contaminated with 12 ml of bishofit.
