Abstract/Contents: | Recent trends to increasingly sophisticated mechanization on turf equipment has resulted in petroleum spills being a greater problem on intensively maintained turf areas, especially golf greens. This study was conducted to determine the specific turfgrass symptoms associated with various types of petroleum spills; assess the comparative rates of turfgrass recovery following petroleum spills effects on turf and enhancing turf recovery. The flue petroleum treatments applied to turfgreen bermudagrass include gasoline (leaded), motor oil (20 SEA), hydraulic fluid, brake fluid and grease; injury symptoms are also provided for each. Corrective treatments applied includes calcined clay fines, activated charcoal and detergent (anionic and non-ionic granules). Recommended corrective treatments and recovery times for each type of spill (both treated and untreated) are provided. |
