ORGANIC FERTILISER SYSTEM
N2 Applied’s organic fertiliser system enriches organic fertiliser like livestock slurry and digestate from anaerobic digestion with nitrate. The result is a Nitrogen Enriched Organic (NEO) fertiliser, with increased nitrogen value and reduced emissions.
The organic fertiliser system has been deployed on three continents and aims to be the preferred fertiliser in livestock and arable production. Our partner GEA Farm Technologies is manufacturing and distributing machines for beef and dairy farms around the world.
Our organic fertiliser system offers significant environmental and operational benefits. By doubling the nitrogen content of organic inputs like slurry and digestate, it enhances the efficiency of the fertilisers. This system also helps prevent ammonia emissions during storage and after field application, reducing harmful air pollutants. It also eliminates methane emissions, which are a potent greenhouse gas. The process hygienises the input product by eliminating pathogens.
LIVESTOCK SLURRY TREATMENT
The organic fertiliser system treats slurry from cows and pigs. As long as it is liquid, our system can treat it. It enables farmers to produce fertiliser locally and substitute inorganic fertilisers.
Nitrogen Enriched (NEO ) fertiliser is much more efficient compared to untreated slurry. Plasma treatment significantly reduces ammonia and methane emissions. Treating slurry also support the farmers in reducing the climate footprint of the farm.
DIGESTATE TREATMENT
Treating digestate offers several key advantages for sustainable agriculture. Digestate is generally considered as waste product from an anaerobic digestion plant. Plasma treatment of digestate can add value to a generally considered waste product from an anaerobic digestion plant, and turn it into an efficient fertiliser.
It effectively doubles the nitrogen content of the digestate, enhancing its nutrient value for use as fertiliser. This process also helps restore the nitrogen-to-phosphorus (N/P) balance, promoting healthier soil.
By significantly reducing ammonia emissions and eliminating methane emissions, it helps minimise harmful environmental impacts. Additionally, the treatment hygienises the input product by eliminating pathogens, ensuring a safer and cleaner fertiliser for agricultural use. These benefits make digestate treatment a valuable solution for improving both environmental sustainability and farming efficiency.
OTHER ORGANIC WASTE STREAMS
The organic fertiliser system can treat a variety of other liquid organic waste streams, like sewage treatment.
Treating organic waste streams offers several environmental and agricultural benefits. By doubling the nitrogen content, the process transforms the waste into an efficient and valuable fertiliser, enhancing soil health. It also significantly reduces ammonia emissions, helping to minimise air pollution.
Additionally, methane emissions are eliminated, further reducing the environmental footprint. The treatment also hygienises the input product by effectively eliminating pathogens, ensuring a safer, cleaner fertiliser for agricultural use.
This approach not only supports sustainable farming practices but also contributes to a healthier environment.
