2018 has seen the publication of two books on phosphorus management, sewage phosphorus removal and P-recovery and recycling technologies and policies - ?Phosphorus recovery and recycling?, Springer, 2018, Editors H. Ohtake & S. Tsuneda, and IWA book ?Phosphorus polluter and resource of the future ? removal and recovery from wastewater?, C. Schaum (ed.). Both books include chapters by W. Schipper / C. Kabbe on success factors for P-recycling industrial and market implementation.

The Springer book, 526 pages, includes some information on phosphorus flows, Life Cycle Assessment of nutrient recycling and phosphorus rock reserves and processing, but is centred mainly on phosphorus recovery technologies, presenting around 20 technologies for phosphorus recovery from sewage, sewage sludge incineration ash (SSIA), steelmaking slag, manure and bones.

The IWA book, 590 pages, provides a wider approach, covering both P-recovery technologies (see below) and phosphorus removal in sewage works (technologies, perspectives, costs ?). It aims to take forward to overview initiated by E. Valsami-Jones?s (ed.) 2004 book ?Phosphorus in Environmental Technologies?.

SHORT ABOUT THE PROJECT

Project Industrial animal farms in the Baltic Sea Region - sustainable practices to reduce nutrient loads is a part of a long-term campaign of the Coalition Clean Baltic and Green Federation "GAJA", aiming to reduce the negative impact of large-scale animal production on the environment and local communities in the Baltic Sea Region, particularly by reducing nutrient run-off into the sea. The project is part-financed by the European Union. This website reflects only the view of the Coalition Clean Baltic. The Executive Agency for Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (EASME) is not responsible for any use that may be made of the information it contains.
