Aqueous wastewater from hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) systems is typically high in chemical oxygen demand (COD), which renders classic aerobic wastewater treatment to be prohibitively expensive. HTL wastewater can be processed using thermochemical wet oxidation in a manner that is not only cost efficient but also contributes more heat than is required for the energetically demanding HTL process. Provided are methods and devices for integrated hydrothermal liquefaction of biomass and treatment of resulting wastewater.

Commercially beneficial carbon-containing fractions can be recovered from hydrothermal liquefaction reactions in various types of processors. Feedstock slurry from waste solids is placed into a pressurized processor where it is maintained at temperature and pressure for a predetermined period. On discharge from the processor the processed discharge is separated into liquid and solid fractions. Gaseous fractions including carbon dioxide can also be removed or off-taken from the processor. New molecular structures are created in this reaction, resulting in fractions including biogas, biofuels, biosolids and biocrude. Silica, phosphates, potash and low concentration nitrogen based fertilizer, along with carbonaceous material can also be recovered.

The invention relates to a method and system for phosphate recovering from a waste stream, such as an animal manure waste stream. The method comprises the steps of: - providing a tank reactor, 5 - providing acidogenic bacteria and/or acetogenic bacteria and the waste stream to the tank reactor, - hydrolysing the waste stream, forming a reaction mixture; - providing a gas flow to the reaction mixture for removing carbon dioxide from the reaction mixture; 10 - providing the reaction mixture to an anaerobic sludge reactor, - removing a compound comprising phosphate from the reaction mixture within the anaerobic sludge reactor, and - removing gas from the reaction mixture within the anaerobic sludge reactor.
