palm branch 33%> branch of pistachio 28%. In the second stage, the extracted cellulose was used to cover urea fertilizer in a ratio of 1 to 2 (urea fertilizer to cellulose) and the desired fertilizer was made in the form of small tablets with diameter of 0.5 cm and height of 2 cm. The SEM scanning electron microscope was used to study the structure of the manure. Microscopic images showed that the urea fertilizer placed as white spherical particles around the cellulose rod particles, indicating that the urea fertilizer particles adhered to the cellulose particles without any adhesive. The FTIR diagram of the fertilizer showed that the shift of the diagram upwards at the common wavelengths in urea and pure cellulose and a strong physical bond is established between them. Nitrogen release kinetics for all treatments that were less than pure urea fertilizer and significant differences observed between treatments and pistachio branch cellulose caused a slower release of urea fertilizer. The kinetic equation of the power function was selected as the best model for fitting the kinetic data. The studied wastes in this study have a high potential for producing pure cellulose to slow the release of urea fertilizer.]]>
