New Fertilizers from Advanced Wastewater Treatment: Their potential Values and Risks

Winker, M; Vinnerås, Björn; Arnold, U; Muskulos, A; Clemens, J

Sammanfattning

Along the characteristics presented and the data analyzed, it can be concluded that new fertilizers from advanced wastewater treatment have a high potential to introduce a new and promising handling of our water and nutrient (re)sources. To be kept in mind is that these new products have to be adapted to applications techniques available. As long as we are aware of the risks coming alongside and include them by appropriate measures into our actions, usage of the fertilizers in agriculture is possible. Implementing a new organic fertilizer will introduce a new route of transmission of infectious diseases but appropriate management will minimize these risks. Nevertheless, in many aspects further research is required to fill gaps of knowledge and gain further information to optimize handling and usage of these fertilizer products
