Research outcomes from the ALIVE project

We are pleased to present research outcomes from the ALIVE project at the GRICE 2026 Conference in Athens (2nd International Conference on Green Innovation and Circular Economy), showcasing recent advances in anaerobic digestion, ammonia mitigation, and nutrient recovery from poultry manure streams.
During the conference, two research posters were presented by Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, and the International Hellenic University, the coordinator of the project presented a third poster.
Our work focused on:

  • Long-term stability of bioaugmented CSTR systems operating under extreme ammonia concentrations
  • Integrated pilot-scale anaerobic digestion and membrane filtration for nitrogen recovery and circular bioeconomy applications
  • Innovative approaches for improving process stability, nutrient valorisation, and sustainable waste management within anaerobic digestion systems
  • Cultivation of Chlorella sorokiniana on digestate-derived streams for nutrient recovery and biomass production.
  • Efficient nutrient uptake, stable microalgal growth, and the potential integration of photobioreactor systems into circular bioeconomy and wastewater valorisation strategies.

GRICE 2026 conference provided an excellent opportunity for scientific exchange, collaboration, and dissemination of the ongoing outcomes of the ALIVE project.
Special thanks to all collaborators, researchers, and conference participants for the insightful discussions and valuable feedback.
