Energy and nutrient efficiency of manure (ENEGÜLL)
Project
Project code: EIP-Agri-SH-2018-LPTDPT
Contract period: 01.01.2018
- 31.12.2020
Budget: 495,533 Euro
Purpose of research: Applied research
Keywords: farming practice/activity, fertilisation, product/service
The aim of the project is to develop a procedure for liquid slurry processing for agricultural enterprises, with which slurry and manure can be used to produce transport-worthy, nutritionally optimized fertilizers. For this purpose, farm manure is not treated after addition to the biogas plant as is has been done so far, but before addition (alternatively during use) so that as much nitrogen, phosphate and water as possible are removed. By producing concentrated fertilizers the transport costs are reduced. In addition, gas production is to be increased by optimizing the substrate properties, and the cultivation of energy maize by using regional farm manure in the biogas process will be reduced. Farmers whose enterprises differ in substrate composition as well as agricultural areas of focus are working in the project to test and implement the innovation. As a result, improvements in the environment, agriculture and sustainability of biogas plants are expected.
