Plant demand-adapting fertilisers from biogas plants

Programme 2014 - 2020 INTERREG V-A Sweden - Finland - Norway (Botnia Atlantica)

Date of latest update: 2024-03-25

Description

Description (EN):

The project increases the competence to refine and use the digestate resulting from biogas production. By adjusting the nutrient content of the digestion residue to think of use as fertiliser, its value can be increased. The aim of the project is to provide the region with knowledge and competence to refine and use the digestion residues that arise in connection with biogas production. The value of digestion as a bionutrient increases when the nutrient content is balanced and adapted for the intended use as a fertiliser. The project will result in tools that control and optimise the nutrient balance between phosphorus and nitrogen in the digestate during and after biogas production. This will provide two new products for biogas producers: a digestion residue with a nutrient content adapted for agricultural or forestry purposes and recycled phosphorus which can be sold directly as fertilisers or as raw material for the fertiliser industry.

Description (SV):

Projektet ökar kompetensen att förädla och använda den rötrest som uppstår i samband med biogasproduktion. Genom att anpassa rötrestens näringsinnehåll för den tänka användningen som gödselmedel kan dess värde ökas. Projektets syfte är att tillföra regionen kunskap och kompetens att förädla och använda den rötrest som uppstår i samband med biogasproduktion. Rötrestens värde som bionäring ökar när näringsinnehållet är balanserat och anpassat för den tänkta användningen som gödselmedel. Projektet kommer att resultera i verktyg som styr och optimerar näringsbalansen mellan fosfor och kväve i rötresten under och efter biogasproduktion. Detta kommer att ge två nya produkter för biogasproducenterna: en rötrest med ett näringsinnehåll anpassat för jord- eller skogsbruk och återvunnen fosfor som kan säljas direkt som gödselmedel eller som råvara för handelsgödselindustrin.

Achievements (EN):

By balancing and adjusting the nutrient content of the digestate to suit its use as a fertilizer, the value and efficiency of the fertilizer increased. The project resulted in the development of tools that could control and optimize the nutritional balance between phosphorus and nitrogen in the digestate, both during and after biogas production. This resulted in two new products for the biogas producers: a digestate with a nutrient content that was adapted for use in agriculture or forestry, and recovered phosphorus that could be sold as fertilizer or used as a raw material in the commercial fertilizer industry. By providing these tools and products, the project contributed to increased sustainability and resource efficiency in biogas production in the region.
