Long description: |
Closing the loop for nutrients in wastewaters (municipal sewage, animal wastes, food industry, commercial and other liquid waste streams) is a necessary, sustainable development objective, to reduce resource consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. Chemistry, engineering and process integration understanding are all developing quickly, as new processes are now coming online. A new 'paradigm' is emerging, globally. Commercial marketing of recovered nutrients as 'green fertilizers' or recycling of nutrients through biomass production to new outlets, such as bioenergy, is becoming more widespread.
