Phosphorus recovery by Glatt PHOS4green at CRU Phosphates 2024 at stand 36

With PHOS4green, we have developed an innovative patent-protected technology to recover the essential nutrient phosphorus from sewage sludge ashes and use it for new phosphate or compound fertilizers. Recovery of phosphorus from ashes. Direct conversion into fertiliser granules. Heavy metal depletion. Meet us at the CRU Phoaphates 26-28 February 2024 in Warsaw, Poland at stand 36 and learn more about our proven technology.

Sewage sludge: pollutant and raw material source at the same time

The fact that phosphorus is filtered out during wastewater treatment because of its serious consequences for the aquatic ecosystem in turn makes sewage sludge an important source of raw materials. It is this ambivalence of pollutant and raw material source that has led to thinking about alternative disposal methods. One such is sewage sludge mono-incineration. (Article in German language)

Growing the German phosphate industry

Part 1 of this article will highlight a scientific study on the long-term bioavailability of the nutrients in different phosphorus fertilizers. Part 2 will provide a report on the first German production plant and present a research project in the Frankfurt Rhine-Main area. Jan Kirchhof, Glatt Ingenieurtechnik GmbH, Germany, reports on a laboratory experiment with phosphorus fertilizers and two current projects.

Closing the Loop – Phosphorus Recovery on an Industrial Scale

The first fertilizers produced using the PHOS4green process have been available on the German market since June. The technology, which breaks down the phosphorus contained in sewage sludge ash and makes it reavailable in marketable end products, was developed by plant engineering and process expert Glatt Ingenieurtechnik in cooperation with fertilizer specialist Seraplant.

Meet the Glatt experts at the abonocare® online conference

At the 2nd Conference of abonocare® – sustainable nutrient recycling from organic residues Dr. Michael Jacob will give a lecture on ‘Fertilizer production from N- and P-rich recyclates using fluid bed spray granulation’. He will show product examples and present an industrial-scale reference plant at Seraplant in Haldensleben, Germany.

Glatt PHOS4green: first production plant for fertilizer from sewage sludge in operation at Seraplant

Production starts at first German PHOS4green plant for recycled fertilizers. Residue-free production of ready-to-use fertilizer from phosphate-containing sewage sludge ash is now possible, thanks to plant manufacturer and process expert Glatt Ingenieurtechnik, and fertilizer specialist Seraplant. The official commissioning on May 31, 2021, was attended by Prof Dr Armin Willingmann, Saxony-Anhalt’s Minister for Economics, Science and Digitalization.
