dc.description | This review aims to summarize research findings and provide an up-to-date assessment of the current state of knowl- edge on the environmental safety of digestate, including its effects on soil, crop yields and animal health. Topics covered include the potential benefits and drawbacks of using digestate as a fertilizer. In recent years, the biogas industry in Europe has experienced significant growth. Many countries are actively promoting bio- gas production as a means to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and achieve renewable energy targets. As a result, there has been a corresponding increase in the production of digestate remain- ing after the anaerobic digestion of organic waste. Digestate is a source of growing concern due to its potential adverse effects on the environment, specifically concerning soil quality and the risk of nutrient runoff. A number of studies have been conducted in European countries to assess the safety of digestate for the en- vironment and identify ways to reduce its negative impact. | en-US |
