💦 🪴 Emma Company’s doctoral thesis focuses on the recovery of phosphorus (P), potassium (K) and nitrogen (N) from pig manure and urban wastewater to produce struvite and K-struvite, two slow-release fertilizers. The work investigates precipitation as a nutrient recovery method and explores electrochemical precipitation which, unlike the former, does not require the addition of external chemical reagents.
