Tasks 1.0-1 foresee the extraction of nHAP from biowastes, their physical-chemical characterization, and the loading with urea; tasks 1.2-3 aim at observing the N and P release dynamics of the nanostructures, also in soil. Task 1.4 is focused on the larger-scale production of nHAP-based fertilizers. Finally, task 1.5 will provide the indications for the functionalization of the nanostructure with a marker necessary to monitor the relationships of nHAP-U with the model plant.
