Background

Recovery and recycling of nutrients such as phosphorus, nitrogen, and potassium from society back to agriculture is important for a sustainable world. Phosphorus and potassium are scarce resources in which EU is heavily dependent on virgin import from Morocco and Russia. Both the manufacturing of mineral nitrogen fertilizers, as well as the required biological methods for treating nitrogen containing wastewaters consume large amounts of energy and chemicals. In addition, the established virgin-based processes lead to emissions of greenhouse gases and ammonia, which affects the climate, eutrophication, and causes acidification in the nature.

EasyMining has several patented processes that enables recovery of clean commercial products by using waste as raw materials. Examples of our processes are phosphorus recovery from incinerated sewage sludge ashes (Ash2Phos), nitrogen recovery and energy reduction from nitrogen containing wastewaters (Project N), as well as extraction of salts from fly ash created through incineration of municipal waste (Ash2Salt).
