Morphological and micro-tomographic study on evolution of struvite in synthetic urine infected with bacteria and investigation of its pathological biomineralization. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 Pathological biomineralization in the urinary system leads to urolithiasis. Formation of kidney stones involves a series of events during which they undergo morphological and mineralogical changes. We investigated the mineralization of biogenic struvite (

First experimental evidence of the piezoelectric nature of struvite
Scientific Reports, 2021 In this paper, we present the first experimental evidence of the piezoelectric nature of struvite (MgNH4PO4·6H2O). Using a single diffusion gel growth technique, we have grown struvite crystals in the form of plane parallel plates.

The determination of fertiliser quality of the formed struvite from a WWTP
Water Science and Technology, 2021 Struvite from nutrient-rich wastewaters has been identified as a potential substitute for commercial mineral fertilisers, with the added benefit of reducing threats to global food security by prolonging phosphate rock reserves. A fertilisation test using

Dynamic and equilibrium precipitation of struvite from the concentrated cellulosic ethanol stillage
Water Science and Technology, 2021 The phosphate rock mineral is the main source of P-fertilizer production. It is estimated to become depleted in next century. Thus, the recovery of phosphorus from waste streams has attracted great interest.

Struvite as a Sustainable Fertilizer in Mediterranean Soils
Agronomy, 2023 Recycled sources of phosphorus (P) and nitrogen (N), such as struvite extracted from wastewater, have the potential to substitute conventional manufactured fertilizers and mitigate environmental problems such as water eutrophication or the depletion of ...

Optimizing Struvite Crystallization at High Stirring Rates
Crystals, 2023 Phosphorus and ammonium can both be recovered in the presence of magnesium through struvite (MgNH4PO4·6H2O) crystallization. The present work aimed to optimize struvite crystallization at turbulent solution flow.
