About

The ReLeaf project has produced a high-purity ammonium sulphate fertiliser recovered from the liquid fraction of sewage sludge. The product recovers nutrients from a residual stream and returns them to agricultural use.

The recovered fertiliser has a composition comparable to commercial mineral fertilisers. It therefore demonstrates a circular route for nutrient recovery while reducing the need to rely entirely on conventionally produced fertiliser inputs.

Key benefits

  • Recovers nutrients from sewage for reuse in fertilisers
  • Offers a composition comparable to commercial mineral fertilisers
  • Supports circular nutrient use in agriculture

Application

  • Bio-based fertiliser
  • Nutrient recovery from sewage sludge
