On the other hand, the demand of P and K as fertilizers increases which following global population. The nutrient source of P and K which get from biomass waste <i>i.e.</i> incinerated of activated sludge and coffee husk biochar, respectively. The present study was conducted recovery of P and K as struvite-K (KMgPO4&middot;6H2O) precipitates. The results showed that aluminium was released simultaneously with P from incinerated activated sludge with precipitate of Al:P of 1:1, K:P of 0.5, and Mg:P of 3. However, aluminium was inhibited to form struvite-K. Then, we examined cation removal especially for removed Al by dissolved 0.5 M HNO3 and the solution was mixed with KH2PO4 and MgCl2&middot;6H2O as source of K and Mg, respectively. The results showed aluminium (Al) was removed with precipitate K:P of 0.5, and %K Struvite-K %K Recovery of Biomass Waste %K Coffee Husk %K Sludge Waste %K Precipitates %U http://www.scirp.org/journal/PaperInformation.aspx?PaperID=111252
