Finnish Environment centre is responsible for coordinating the whole and relatively broad LIFE CIRCWASTE, where LUKE is responsible for demonstrating circular economy in the food chain (including nutrient recovery and reuse) in Southwest Finland. LEMNA Duckweed The main objective of the LIFE LEMNA project is to 1-10-2016 LIFE+ Andrés technology demonstrate the feasibility of an innovative nitrogen and 2019 Pascual for phosphorous recovery technology, to improve nutrient improving management and reduce the environmental impact of nutrient animal farming. This biological, energy-efficient system will involve the sustainable treatment of anaerobically and digested manure through a duckweed (aquatic plant) resource production system. Duckweed biomass will be processed efficiency to obtain new bio-based products for local consumption, in pig mainly bio-fertilisers and animal feed; and it will also feed production an existing biogas plant in the same location, which will systems allow the system to run 100% on green energy. The new technology will be tested in a 250 m2 duckweed production prototype with a treatment capacity of 3 m3/day, which will be installed and operated over a period of 21 months on a pig farm in Castilla-La Mancha (Spain).
