Developing Integrated Waste Recycling Systems for Agricultural and Environmental Safety Purposes in Rural Communities in Jordan 2013-2015

Donor: USAID

Location: Irbid, Jordan

Objective: The aim of the project was to develop a sustainable system to treat the animal manure that is produced in livestock breeding farms, also generate renewable energy to cover the energy needs of the farms, additionally a sterile fertilizer for agricultural purposes. The system uses three technologies as a hybrid system; solar thermal energy, Solar Photovoltaic and anaerobic digestion to treat the cows manure. The project succeeds in converting the manure in the farm for sterile fertilizer; also generate hot water from solar heater, electricity from the PV and biogas to cover the energy needs of the farm. On the other hand, the project contributes in reducing the harmful effect of the untreated manure inside the farms, and protecting the surrounding environment by converting the manure to renewable energy and fertilizer.
