Economía circular en la agricultura mediante la recuperación de fósforo
Resumen
El presente trabajo describe el estado conceptual y metodológico de la recuperación de fósforo desde la perspectiva de economía circular en la agricultura. A partir de la revisión de literatura en la Web of Science se construyó una red de citaciones —basada en la teoría de grafos— para el análisis de la información obtenida. Los hallazgos del estudio abordan los métodos de recuperación de fósforo y los resultados de la evaluación del desempeño de las diferentes tecnologías aplicadas. El documento establece el alto potencial al incluir fósforo en los procesos agrícolas, y el valor que genera en relación con la disminución de problemas ambientales, así como con la conservación de recursos.
