“…The nutrient-rich fractions of wastewater that are the focus of nutrient recovery include urine (yellow water), feces (black water), kitchen waste, and anaerobic digester supernatant (Kirchmann and Pettersson, 1995;Kujawa-Roeleveld and Zeeman, 2006;Maurer et al, 2006). Recent examples of nitrogen recovery for use as fertilizer include source separation of human urine at a dormitory and application as liquid fertilizer on nearby field (Berndtsson, 2006), air stripping of ammonia from human urine to sulfuric acid to produce ammonium sulfate (Basakcilardan-Kabakci et al, 2007;Antonini et al, 2011), precipitation of magnesium ammonium phosphate (struvite) in anaerobic digester effluent and urine with application of struvite as slow-release fertilizer (Stratful et al, 2001;Kabdasli et al, 2006;Liu et al, 2008;Etter et al, 2011), and sorption of ammonium to clinoptilolite with application of ammonium-saturated clinoptilolite as slow-release fertilizer (Lind et al, 2000;Beler-Baykal et al, 2004. Liquid urine and urine treatment byproducts (struvite, ammonium-saturated zeolites) have been shown in many cases to be nearly as effective as commercial fertilizer for a wide range of plants (Ganrot et al, 2007;Heinonen-Tanski et al, 2007;Pradhan et al, 2007Pradhan et al, , 2009Germer et al, 2011).…”
