  1. 1. Nitrogen Losses from a Clay-rich Soil used for Cereal Production in south-western Sweden

    Författare :Magdalena Wallmann; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; nitrogen; fertilisers; soil; nitrous oxide; nitrogen leaching; 15N; nitrogen use efficiency; nitrogen budget; agriculture; Sweden;

    Sammanfattning : Addition of fertiliser nitrogen (N) in crop production increases yields and protein contents, but all is not taken up by the crop. Instead, some of the N is lost to air and waters, contributing e.g. to climate change, stratospheric ozone depletion, eutrophication and acidification. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Phosphorus recovery for fertilisers from dairy wastewater – Sustainability assessment at early stages of technology development

    Författare :Marta Behjat; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; environmental impacts; LCA; screening; phosphorus recovery; sustainability; indicator; meta-analysis; wastewater treatment; dairy wastewater;

    Sammanfattning : A reduction in the availability of phosphate rock resources for fertiliser production coincides with an increase in phosphorus-rich dairy wastewater in Europe. This confluence of events has led to the development of technologies for phosphorus recovery from dairy wastewater and the use of the products as fertilisers in agriculture. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Nitrous oxide and methane emissions from storage and land application of organic fertilisers : with the focus on sewage sludge

    Författare :Agnes Willén; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Sammanfattning : Organic fertiliser handling contributes to greenhouse gas emissions. Through storage and field experiments, this thesis examined strategies to reduce emissions of nitrous oxide (N2O) and methane (CH4) from storage and after land application of cattle slurry (CS) and sewage sludge (SS).

  5. 4. Recycling plant nutrients from waste and by-products : a life cycle perspective

    Författare :Johanna Spångberg; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Chemical fertilisers contribute to greenhouse gas emissions, fossil fuel use, use of non-renewable phosphate rock and a flow of reactive nitrogen to the biosphere, exceeding the planetary boundaries. Recycling of plant nutrients from waste and by-products from society would reduce the use of chemical fertilisers. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Adsorption and reclamation of wastewater nitrogen and the value of human urine as a nitrogen fertiliser

    Författare :Annelie Hedström; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; VA-teknik; Urban Water Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : Ammonium adsorption and ammonium ion exchange technique are possible alternatives for ammonium reclamation at conventional wastewater treatment plants. There are a few ion exchange applications that have been suggested for nitrogen reclamation, which can be further developed. LÄS MER
