Phos4You	Phosphorus recovery from municipal sewage in North West Europe	The Phos4You project will include building demonstration phosphorus recovery installations at sewage treatment sites, innovative phosphorus recovery technologies, new recycled phosphorus products for fertilisers, working on a standard to assess recycled fertiliser quality and addressing social acceptance of recycled nutrient products. Phos4You partners are Lippeverband (lead), Université de Liège, IRSTEA, Cork Institute of Technology, FHNW, Universiteit Gent, Glasgow Caledonian University, University of the Highlands and Islands, Veolia Environnement, Emschergenossenschaft, NV HVC – SNB NL, Scottish Water.	16-9-2016	14-9-2020	INTERREG V B NWE	http://www.nweurope.eu (underway)	[e-mail]	Marie-Edith Ploteau
QUB Phosphorus from wastewater	Phosphorus sustainability in Ireland and innovative technologies to recover phosphorus from wastewaters	The successful adoption of emerging technologies for the recovery of phosphorus is driven by efficiency, economic viability, purity and/or bioavailability of the recovered product and legislation. The overall aim of this EPA funded project is to investigate phosphorus sustainability within the wastewater sector in Ireland and develop innovative technologies to recover P from wastewaters.	2014	2020	NERC (United Kingdom)	https://phosphorusie.wordpress.com	[e-mail], [e-mail],	dr.

SMART-Plant	Scale-up of low-carbon footprint material recovery techniques in existing wastewater treatment plants	SMART-Plant will scale-up in real environment eco-innovative and energy-efficient solutions to renovate existing wastewater treatment plants and close the circular value chain by applying low-carbon techniques to recover materials that are otherwise lost. 7+2 pilot systems will be optimized for > 2 years in real environment in 5 municipal water treatment plants, including also 2 post-processing facilities. The systems will be automated with the aim of optimizing wastewater treatment, resource recovery, energy-efficiency and reduction of greenhouse emissions. A comprehensive SMART portfolio comprising biopolymers, cellulose, fertilisers and intermediates will be recovered and processed up to the final commercializable end-products. The integration of resource recovery assets to system wide asset management programs will be evaluated in each site following the resource recovery paradigm for the wastewater treatment plant of the future, enabled through SMART-Plant solutions. The project will prove the feasibility of circular management of urban wastewater and environmental sustainability of the systems, to be demonstrated through Life Cycle Assessment and Life Cycle Costing approaches to prove the global benefit of the scaled-up water solutions. Dynamic modelling and superstructure framework for decision support will be developed and validated to identify the optimum SMART-Plant system integration options for recovered resources and technologies. Global market deployment will be achieved as right fit solution for water utilities and relevant industrial stakeholders, considering the strategic implications of the resource recovery paradigm in case of both public and private water management. New public-private partnership models will be explored connecting the water sector to the chemical industry and its downstream segments such as the construction and agricultural sector, thus generating new opportunities for funding, as well as potential public-private competition.	1-6-2016	31-5-2020	Horizon 2020, Water-1-b	http://www.smart-plant.eu	[e-mail], [e-mail], [e-mail], [e-mail], [e-mail], [e-mail]	Prof Francesco Fatone, Simos Malamis, Christian Remy and Peter Vale
SYSTEMIC	Largescale demonstration projects for recovery of nutrients from manure and sewage sludge	The SYSTEMIC project, 2017-2021, is a public-private partnership to build operational technologies and business models to recover phosphorus, nitrogen and potassium as products corresponding to fertiliser market requirements from digestates, at sites treating different combinations of animal manure, sewage sludge, food waste and other organic wastes. The project will include five demonstration-scale nutrient recovery installations, operating in combination with large anaerobic digesters and field testing of the recovered nutrient fertiliser products to demonstrate agronomic value, business case and environmental benefits. The five demonstrations plants are Groot Zevert (NL), AMPower (BE), Acqua&Sole (IT), GNS (DE), and RIKA biofuels (UK). Nutrients will be recovered by ammonia stripping (product ammonium sulphate), reverse osmosis (N and NK concentrates), phosphate extraction and precipitation (calcium phosphate), and in organic digestate residuals, alongside production of purified irrigation water and biogas. The SYSTEMIC partners are: Wageningen Environmental Research NL (lead), AM Power BE, Groot-Zevert Vergisting NL, AcquaSole IT, RIKA Biofuels UK, GNS DE, A-Farmers Ltd FI, ICL Europe NL, Nijhuis Water Technology NL, Proman Management AU, Ghent University BE, Milano University IT, VCM BE, European Biogas Association BE, RISE BE.	1-6-2017	1-6-2021	Horizon 2020	http://www.systemicproject.eu	[e-mail], [e-mail]	Oscar Schoumans
TL-BIOFER	Nutrients and regenerated water recycling in WWTPs through twin-layer microalgae culture for biofertilisers production	The LIFE+ TL-BIOFER project aims to address the environmental problem of wastewater produced by small- and medium-size urban agglomerations. To meet this aim, the project plans to implement two actions. First, it will develop and demonstrate a wastewater treatment plant using a Twin-Layer (TL) system: an advanced nutrient removal technology based on immobilised cultivation of microalgae. In this technology, microalgae are immobilised by self-adhesion on a wet, microporous ultrathin substrate (the substrate layer). A second layer, which consists of a macroporous fibrous structure (the source layer), will provide and distribute the growth medium. Secondly, the project also plans to address the shortage of phosphorus by developing produced and testing biofertilisers derived from the remaining microalgae. The fertiliser will meet high agronomical standards of sustainable farming as well as the requirements of current and future EU regulations. The trials will be conducted in microplots for two different crops in northern Italy and four different crops in Spain.	1-7-2014	30-6-2017	LIFE+	http://www.life-tlbiofer.eu	[e-mail], [e-mail]	Inmaculada González
