Removal And Reuse Of Phosphorus As A Fertilizer From Cafo Runoff, Hannah Young
Removal And Reuse Of Phosphorus As A Fertilizer From Cafo Runoff, Hannah Young
Chemical Engineering Undergraduate Honors Theses
Eutrophication is the process in which nutrient saturated waters promote algal blooms on the surface of the water. This limits the amount of dissolved oxygen content in the water, effectively limiting the range of species that can survive in a body of water. Concentrated animal feeding operations (CAFO) can contribute to this issue. The animals in a CAFO produce large amounts of nutrient-rich waste streams that can enter natural waterways if not properly managed and increase the problem of eutrophication. The ability to treat these waste streams and recover the excess nutrients would allow for not only the reduction of …
