Integrating resource recovery process and watershed modelling to facilitate decision-making regarding bio-fertilizer production and application

Abstract Waste management strategies such as anaerobic digestion and composting produce bio-based fertilizer products that could be applied to agricultural soil. Although multiple modelling software tools are available to simulate the environmental effect of fertilizer application to the soil, these...
