How to turn a nitrogen problem into a fertiliser opportunity?

To keep these emissions in the air and around nature reserves within limits, many industrial companies, such as refineries, chemical companies and steel producers, invest in techniques like gas scrubbers. These scrubbers filter nitrogen gas from the air. The captured nitrogen is then treated with an acidic aqueous liquid and dissolves into that liquid.

That doesn't just cost a lot of energy (and money) to clean nitrogen-rich water in wastewater treatment plants. Surface water also has its nitrogen limits. Companies that emit nitrogen for a project need a permit with a maximum emission threshold. This puts many companies in the Netherlands in a tight spot. 

Time for a new perspective. Not to turn one problem into another waste stream, but a new raw material with value: in the form of fertiliser.
