Provides complete coverage of the recovery of mineral nutrients
from biomass and organic waste This book presents a comprehensive
overview of the potential for mineral recovery from wastes,
addressing technological issues as well as economic, ecological,
and agronomic full-scale field assessments. It serves as a complete
reference work for experts in the field and provides teaching
material for future experts specializing in environmental
technology sectors. Biorefinery of Inorganics: Recovering Mineral
Nutrients from Biomass and Organic Waste starts by explaining the
concept of using anaerobic digestion as a biorefinery for
production of an energy carrier in addition to mineral secondary
resources. It then discusses the current state of mineral
fertilizer use throughout the world, offering readers a complete
look at the resource availability and energy intensity. Technical
aspects of mineral recovery organic (waste-)streams is discussed
next, followed by an examination of the economics of biobased
products and their mineral counterparts. The book also covers the
environmental impact assessment of the production and use of
bio-based fertilizers; modelling and optimization of nutrient
recovery from wastes; and more. Discusses global production and
consumption of mineral fertilizers Introduces technologies for the
recovery of mineral NPK from organic wastes and residues Covers
chemical characterization and speciation of refined secondary
resources, and shows readers how to assess biobased mineral
resources Discusses applications of recovered minerals in the
inorganic chemistry sector Compares the economics of biobased
products with current fossil-based counterparts Offers an
ecological assessment of introducing biobased products in the
current fertilizer industry Edited by leading experts in the field
Biorefinery of Inorganics: Recovering Mineral Nutrients from
Biomass and Organic Waste is an ideal book for scientists,
environmental engineers, and end-users in the agro-industry, the
waste industry, water and wastewater treatment, and agriculture. It
will also be of great benefit to policy makers and regulators
working in these fields.
