DESCRIPTION OF THE OFFER

The TFM is focused on the application of hydrochar obtained by hydrothermal carbonization of sewage sludge as a soil amendment. Different post-treatments of hydrochar will be used to improve its characteristics as a soil amendment on a sandy loam soil. Its effect on soil properties and structure will be evaluated, as well as on greenhouse plant cultivation. Yield, plant development and quality of the fruits obtained will be analyzed.
