AGGREGATING ORGANICS TO TAP FERTILIZER MARKETS

摘要

Initiative charts the economic feasibility of producing fertilizer pellets in a regional facility with organic residuals from wastewater treatment plants, CAFOs, meatpackers and other generators. IN Brown County, Wisconsin, a public-private partnership is working on aggregating and processing organic wastes into saleable, nutrient-rich fertilizer products. The Brown County Waste Transformation Initiative (BCWTI), a stakeholder group comprised of industrial, agricultural and municipal entities, was formed in 2008 to determine if a regional facility could be developed to manage the county's various streams of organics.
