Circular Agronomics: investigating different innovative technologies to close nutrient loops

At Circular Agronomics we aim to reduce environmental impacts by maintaining agricultural productivity. Therefore, we have investigated different innovative technologies to close nutrient loops, increase their efficiency in usage and reduce associated emissions. Several processes were piloted since the project’s start. The next step is to extrapolate our findings from the pilot-scale to existing large-scale operations. […]

RDFs have potential in greenhouses

During earlier project trials, RDFs have been tested in agricultural crops and showed high potential for mineral fertiliser replacement. As quite some mineral fertiliser is used in greenhouses, they represent the second biggest market for possible RDF uptake. Therefore, as greenhouse require pure products, some of the most pure RDFs, namely ammonium nitrate from ammonia stripping and ammonium sulphate from chemical air washers, were then selected for greenhouse trials. […]

Feasibility Study of Bio-Sludge Hydrochar as Blast Furnace Injectant

The steel manufacturing industry is one of the largest and most important industrial sectors in the world. However, it is also one of the most energy intensive and highest coal consuming industries which has a significant impact on global CO2 emissions. One of the aims of work package 2 of the F-CUBED project was to convert paper sludge into an energy carrier suitable to be used as an injectant in blast furnace processes. […]
