Brazilian researchers have developed an innovative technology that makes it possible to produce ammonia from nitrate present in wastewater, using renewable energy and significantly reducing the carbon emissions associated with the traditional process. This approach transforms an environmentally polluting solution into a strategic agricultural input, contributing to the sustainability of fertilizer production.
The initiative places Brazil at the forefront of low-carbon technologies and reinforces the importance of soil science and nutrient cycles for food security and sustainability — central themes in discussions promoted by the Brazilian Society of Soil Science.
