Inagro pilot plots offer good test case for constructed wetlands, woodchips filter and MBBR
03 May 2023A few years ago, Inagro bought new test fields that needed to be drained: the Godelieve fields. As such, this was the ideal location to test different denitrification techniques for NuReDrain.

Can nitrate filters help mitigate nitrate pressure in surface water?
03 May 2023Even when farmers fertilize according to plant needs, this does not guarantee that nitrate pressure in surface water remains below EU targets. Inagro (Belgium) tested filter systems on pilot plots and…

Lessons learned after three seasons of intensive follow-up of a moving bed bioreactor (MBBR)
19 December 2022After three seasons of intensive monitoring of a pilot scale moving bed bioreactor (MBBR) system for nitrate removal by KU Leuven, a lot of practical experience was gained in operating such treatment …

Towards a realistic cost and impact assessment of measures for reducing nutrient export from agricultural landscapes
19 December 2022The costs and the impact of technical measures to reduce nutrient loads in tile-drained landscapes depend on many factors and are hardly predictable. Therefore, it is reasonable not to calculate with …
