Project Background
The project will demonstrate phosphorus recovery technologies (USDA QuickWash, Kendensha Multi-disc Roller Separator) at three different sites with the aim of illustrating 80% total phosphorus removal over extended demonstration periods. The WMA will also discern the market value of two resultant co-products - dewatered manure solids and Amorphous Calcium Phosphate (ACP) - to serve as a cost recovery mechanism and facilitate large scale adoption.
