STRUVITE PRECIPITATION AS A MEANS OF RECOVERING NUTRIENTS AND MITIGATING AMMONIA TOXICITY IN A TWO-STAGE ANAEROBIC DIGESTER TREATING PROTEIN-RICH FEEDSTOCKS

Struvite Precipitation as a Means of Recovering Nutrients and Mitigating Ammonia Toxicity in a Two-Stage Anaerobic Digester Treating Protein-Rich Feedstocks

Accumulation of ammonia, measured as total ammonia nitrogen (TAN), a product of protein u motion bowling ball decomposition in slaughterhouse wastes, inhibits the anaerobic digestion process, reducing digester productivity and leading to failure.Struvite precipitation (SP) is an effective means to remove TAN and enhance the buffering of substrates.

Psychosocial assessment tools for use before transplantation are predictive of post-operative psychosocial and health behavior outcomes: a narrative review of the literature

IntroductionIn end-stage diseases, transplantation may be necessary.The limited number of donors led to the development of several pre-transplant psychosocial assessment tools.We summarized the predictive value of these tools before solid-organ transplantation.MethodsThe PRISMA search strategy and the MEDLINE database were used to review the litera
