E2.08 Tarpeh 2017 ReNUWIt Annual Meeting Poster
Abstract/Contents
- Abstract
- Only 10% of wastewater treatment plants in the U.S. use conventional nitrification/denitrification at wastewater treatment plants.1 Source separation (separation of urine and feces at the toilet) and nutrient recovery from urine comprise an innovative approach to reduce eutrophication and create value- added products. Compared to N removal at wastewater treatment plants, extracting nitrogen from source-separated urine could create revenue from value- added products and reduce energy use, costs, and N2O emissions2,3. The goal of this project is to evaluate the systems-level feasibility of recovering nitrogen from urine using two novel technologies: ion exchange and electrochemical stripping. As nutrient removal standards become more stringent, the need to consider alternatives to conventional nutrient removal becomes more pressing.
