Glatt builds demonstration plant for heavy metal separation from sewage sludge ash in the Rhine-Main region

How can waste management companies in the Rhine-Main economic region join forces and make phosphorus recyclable for the nutrient cycle, as required by law from 2029? This question is being addressed by the nine players in the RePhoRM joint project. Glatt is contributing its expertise to two subprojects: the planning and construction of a container plant in Industriepark Höchst and the studies on spray granulation of purified secondary phosphorus.

Meet the PHOS4green experts at the 1st Abonocare Conference 2020

Come and check out the innovative PHOS4green technology for fertilizer production out of phosphorus recyclates from sewage sludge ashes! Benefit from the information about this phosphorus recycling technology given by Jan Kirchhof, Glatt, in his lecture ‘PHOS4green HochleistungsdĂĽnger aus Klärschlammaschen’ (PHOS4green: High-performance fertilizer from sewage sludge ashes)

Formulation For Success – Fluid Bed Systemes as Key for the Production of Speciality Fertilizers

From improving durability and flowability through dust reduction to a pronounced depot effect or a targeted nutrient supply via better active ingredient distribution, fluidised bed technology can deliver many benefits. The shape and size of the fertilizer granules can be determined within a defined range. The quantity of fertilizer components delivered to the soil can be adapted optimally, and significantly higher product qualities can be achieved. Solubility and protection against external influences can also be markedly improved.

Phosphate fertilizer from sewage sludge ash

The amended Sewage Sludge Ordinance gradually restricts direct agricultural utilization and requires operators of large sewage treatment plants to recover the phosphate bound in sewage sludge and ashes. A new approach makes it possible to fully recycle sewage sludge ashes and make the phosphate available for standard and compound fertilizers. (article in German language)

Phosphorus Recycling – Sustainable Growth Formula

Phosphorus recovery: Glatt Ingenieurtechnik has developed an innovative process that converts sewage sludge ash economically and without waste into fertilizer granules that can be marketed directly. (Article in German)
