Abstract: In Brazil, approximately 2 until 10 million tons of ash are generated each year during sugarcane bagasse incineration. The ashes contain varying amounts of minerals essential for plant nutrition that could be used for fertilizing the plants. The project ASHES is a collaborative research between 7 partners from Germany and 4 partners from Brazil and deals with “recycling of nutrients from residues of thermochemical processing of sugarcane bagasse and straw”. The aim of the project is to develop optimised pathways for thermochemical utilisation of residues from sugar and bioethanol production, and to produce bagasse ash based fertiliser for major crops in Brazil.
