Ref No. 55 Ion exchange and demineralisation
Brief description Description of the effect on leaching (positive or negative) of N and P
De-mineralisation means removing of minerals from almost
clean water by filtration and/or chemical sedimentation. The
process has currently only practical relevance for the treatment
of manure in cases where the liquid fraction shall be disposed of
in the nature.
No direct, but the technology would (in this case) typically be part of a high-tech livestock manure
treatment plant, and the effect on leaching shall therefore be evaluated on basis of the effect of the
entire plant.

Low – can easily be installed at all
farms, but depends on a high and
complicated purification of liquid
fractions before the de-mineralisation.
