This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the NSF Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships program (CFDA 47.084) provided $255,326 to develop a vacuum stripping and absorption system (VaSA) for removing ammonia from wastewater. The Research Foundation for the State University of New York (SUNY) received the award for the period of September 1, 2021 through February 28, 2023 to support work conducted by SUNY-ESF. A subaward of $25K was provided to California Polytechnic State University (Cal Poly) to supply raw and digested manure samples for VaSA testing and analyze samples using Cal Poly laboratories and facilities. Results will be shared with SUNY to support a master's thesis evaluating VaSA's impact on digester performance. The goal is to advance an innovative technology solution for removing value-added ammonia from wastewater.
