Sustainable management of phosphorus and other nutrients is crucial for agriculture, food, industry, water and the environment. The European Sustainable Phosphorus Platform (ESPP) brings together companies and stakeholders to address the Phosphorus Challenge and its opportunities.
IN THE SPOTLIGHT
P-recovery in EU list of top-100 green activities … but clarifications needed
The EU Taxonomy will classify which economic activities, and when, are considered environmentally sustainable, so eligible for EU Green Deal investment. It may become a key tool for private investors, markets, other public policies. Phosphorus recovery from sewage is one of the 100 activities listed (at the same level as e.g. livestock production, crop production, hotels and accommodation …) but N-recovery or P-recovery from other streams is not cited.
Consultation open to 24th September 2021, 18h00 deadline (not midnight).
