AgroTechnologyATLAS

AgroTechnologyATLAS is about technologies for reducing the climate impact and environmental load of farming, and secure an optimal resource economy in primary food production

Scroll down to "News"

The "ATLAS" gives possibility to look-up validated information about clean-tech for farming, their environmental or climate impact, their economic implications and their functions

Go to the "ATLAS"

Examples of the chemical composition of input and output fractions of organic material associated to clean-tech processing is found in the "ATLAS"

05-04-2021: Detrimental impacts of composting

The description of "Composting of solid livestock manure or fibre fractions of liquid livestock manure" has been updated with additional literature references. Composting means a massive loss of 30-63% of carbon (C) in the form of carbon dioxide and methane greenhouse gases, a ma {...}

Lamkaddam et al. (2021) found in a full scale study a substantial emmonia emission reduction effect of Active NS from FCSI.

21-03-2021: Ion-exchange-based slurry additives (IEbA)

Lamkaddam et al. (2021) found that the Active NS product gave a reduction of ammonia emission (ranging from 17.6% to 38.3%), systematically obtained at mid fattening cycle, where the concentration of Active NS in the slurry was between 40 and 45 g m−3. The results were obta {...}

A large share of the nitrogen in slurry, which otherwise could have fertilised the crops, are lost due to ammonia volatilisation during field spreading.

28-07-2020: ALFAM2 model for estimation of ammonia losses

The ALFAM2 project has developed a model for estimation of ammonia volatilisation during field spreading slurry and other liquid manures. The model is interactive and calculates the ammonia losses on basis of a set of pre-conditions, for instance the slurry type and the spreading {...}
