Awards Issued Prior to January 20, 2025, Were Funded Under Previous Administrations and May Not Reflect the Priorities and Policies of the Current Administration. Alternative Disposal Pathways for Anaerobic Digestion (AD) Waste Byproducts (digestate) Are Needed to Utilize This Resource, Reduce Greenhouse Gas Emissions, and Avoid Nutrient Loss Caused by Inefficient Land Application, Providing an Opportunity to Use the Digestate as the Basis of an Enhanced Efficiency Fertilizer (eef). However, Raw Digestate Does Not Meet Most Agricultural Requirements and Falls Short of Being an Eef. With This Sbir Project, Greentechnologies, LLC (GT) Will Adapt Patented Technologies to Produce Organic Enhanced Efficiency Fertilizers Using the Digestate as a Feedstock. the Application Responds to Research Topic 8.4 Conservation of Natural Resources, With Emphasis on Soil Health and Nutrient Management.the Sbir Effort Will Culminate in the Commercialization of a New Category of Enhanced Efficiency Recycled-nutrient Fertilizers Based on Digestate. Phase I Efforts Will Evaluate the Technical Feasibility of Adapting GT'S Technologies to Digestate to Produce Commercial Fertilizers. a Follow-up Phase Ii Would Then Focus on Using the Proven Technology to Produce and Commercialize a New Line of Enhanced Efficiency Fertilizers Using Regenerative Feedstocks, Thus Replacing Fossil Fuel Based, Chemical Fertilizers.anticipated Results Are a New Source of Domestically Produced Eefs and a Generalized Process That Will Be Portable to Other Facilities or Producers, Tailorable to Meet Regional Nutrient Needs. Initial Strategies for Commercialization Take Advantage of GT'S Position in the Organic Fertilizer Marketplace. Longer Term Commercialization Will Use the Technology as the Basis for Strategic Partnerships to Broaden Its Practice.
