The aim of the project is the construction of an innovative system for separation and phytoremediation of wastewater – coming from a biomass-fuelled anaerobic digester - and the market uptake of the solution.
Although the proposed system is acting for the treatment of aqueous by-product, it also helps to improve the management of solid fraction to be separated and can be packaged and sold as fertilizer concentrate, helping to solve the problem related to spreading of livestock manure in the territories under Directive 91/676/EEC.
The proposed system for treatment will thus drastically decrease transactions costs and the disposal of the digestate, also reducing CO2 emissions.
The plant will consist of a) a pre-treatment system based on innovative striping basins b) a filtering system made by recycled refractories, c) an innovative hybrid system of constructed wetlands, including a new technology called Tech-IA technology on through which the liquid digestate will be treated for the purification.
