Article: Inventory of Good Practices of Sustainable and Circular Phosphorus Management in the Visegrad Group (V4)
We are pleased to present the results of the project in the form of a scientific article "Inventory of Good Practices of Sustainable and Circular Phosphorus Management in the Visegrad Group (V4)", which was published in Resources (MDPI) as a part of PhosV4 project.
Project partners (Marzena Smol, Paulina Marcinek, Zuzana Šimková, Tomáš Bakalár, Milan Hemzal, Jiří Jaromír Klemeš, Yee Van Fan, Kinga Lorencz, Eugeniusz Koda & Anna Podlasek) prepared an article that contains information about phosphorus, which is the most important raw material needed for food production.
The paper presents the importance of P raw materials in V4, the revision of primary and secondary P sources that can be used in agricultural systems, as well as the structure of import and export of P raw materials in these countries. In addition, examples of good phosphorus recovery practices in the V4 countries are presented. The paper includes a list of initiatives dedicated to the sustainable management of P resources, and examples of P recovery projects.
The project is co-financed by the Governments of the Czechia, Hungary, Poland and Slovakia through Visegrad Grants from International Visegrad Fund. The mission of the fund is to advance ideas for sustainable regional cooperation in Central Europe.
