The present invention provides a process for producing a fertilizer composition from still bottoms obtained from milling of a starch-containing feedstock (such as corn), comprising separating still bottoms into a solids stream and a thin stillage stream; removing water to generate a condensed distillers solubles stream; and recovering the condensed distillers solubles stream as a fertilizer composition. Novel fertilizer compositions as well as novel distillers grains products are co-produced with a fermentation product (such as ethanol or isobutanol). Benefits include the ability to recycle valuable crop nutrients in a sustainable manner; improved ethanol life cycle analysis due to lower crop inputs and lower energy consumption; reduced environmental burden from industrial animal farming due to nitrogen and phosphorous emissions; higher consumption of distillers grains in ruminants currently limited by sulfur and/or fat inhibition; and higher consumption of distillers grains in monogastrics due to higher protein digestibility and less heat damage. 1.

Black Nitrogen - A Milk-Based Fertilizer

Автор: JR. William Robert, Selkirk, Selkirk Rebecca Sue
Принадлежит:

A fertilizer product and method to compose based on milk. Dairy Milk from ruminant animals like cows and goats has been used for centuries for fertilizer and pesticides. The poor efficacy obtained previously was due to the high fat content of these milk sources. Along with the benefits of using milk-based fertilizer, one must include its drawbacks. These include using too much milk, or rather too much fat in the milk, since the bacteria in it will spoil and result in a foul odor and poor growth and crop yield. This fertilizer product and method to compose results in the fertilizer compositions that contain a nutrient ingredient, which is the de-fatted milk, as a liquid or dry product, and are utilized between 10 percent weight and 95 percent and are a stabilizer and chelator for Nitrogen-Phosphorus-Potassium utilization, as well as other known crop minerals. 1.

The specification describes a system and process for treating a sludge or slurry to produce biochar. The sludge or in slurry may be digestate produced by an anaerobic digester that receives waste activated sludge from a wastewater treatment plant. In a process, digestate is dosed with metal ions, dewatered, and pyrolized. A corresponding system includes a reactor, a dewatering unit and a pyrolysis unit. In an example, the digestate is air stripped in the reactor and a metal salt is added to it. The metal ions form precipitates in the digestate that remain in the biochar. In some cases, a precipitate such as struvite is formed that also increases the phosphorous content of the biochar. The biochar may be used as a soil amendment, wherein the metal and phosphorous are beneficial to the soil. 1. A process for treating digestate comprising the steps of ,dosing the digestate with metal cations in an amount sufficient to produce a precipitate including the metal cations in the digestate;dewatering the digestate to form a cake such that at least some of the precipitate is retained in the cake; and,pyrolizing the cake to produce biochar.2.
