Problem
Nitrate pollution from wastewater and animal manure contaminates fresh surface water and groundwater, posing a significant environmental challenge. Traditional methods of waste management often fail to recover valuable nutrients, leading to soil degradation and inefficient resource utilization.
Solution
FLOC Ammonia Solutions offers a patented technology for recovering nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium from wastewater and animal dejections. Their system enables the reuse of these recovered nutrients as inorganic fertilizers, contributing to a circular economy and reducing reliance on traditional fertilizer production methods. The technology operates under normal conditions and does not require an external energy source, making it a cost-effective and sustainable solution for nutrient recovery. By recovering these nutrients, FLOC Ammonia Solutions helps to solve problems related to soil and underground water contamination, while also providing fertilizer companies with a new and sustainable supply source.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes fertilizer companies seeking sustainable nutrient sources, livestock farmers looking to manage manure more effectively, and wastewater treatment facilities aiming to reduce nitrate pollution.
