Abstract
⺠360 g of fertilizer was derived from 50 L urine by solar evaporative distillation. ⺠The fertilizer contained 90% sodium chloride, 3% sulfur, 2% nitrogen, 2% phosphorus. ⺠It induced biomass yields comparable to those produced by a commercial fertilizer. ⺠Urine acidification improved the nutrient content of the generated fertilizers. ⺠Acidification is not recommended for use in developing countries (costs, safety).
