| Ted Stuart Biochar Filtration of Phosphorous
Défi: | Environnement | Catégorie: | Intermédiaire | Région: | Simcoe County | Ville: | Ravenna, ON | École: | Pretty River Academy | Sommaire: | A process was developed to convert wood into fertilizer, by experimentally filtering and storing residual phosphorus from a contaminated water source. A key component of this process was the production substance from wood known as "biochar," through pyrolysis. It was experimentally determined that implementing a radial flow filter (containing biochar as media) would be a sustainable, cost-effective solution to preventing eutrophication. |
