This chapter provides an overview of the main technologies for manure valorization into bioenergy and biofertilizer products. It discusses developments in more established technologies such as solid-liquid (S/L) separation, anaerobic digestion and composting. It also reviews more innovative techniques, including struvite precipitation, ammonia stripping/scrubbing as well as bioelectrochemical and membrane systems.
