2 Livestock wet scrubber, 2002,2 The scope of the project Interdisciplinary activities (Engineering, agronomy and biochemistry) Strategically designed R & D project Supports a number of PhD/MSc projects Co-operates with two private companies and a pig producers’ organisation The project period is 5 years.

4 Livestock wet scrubber, 2002,4 Background Increasing number of large- scale livestock facilities Intensified demand Buffer zone requirement of 300m effects 25% of livestock producers. The total ammonia emission from pig and poultry houses amount to about 32% of the total nitrogen loss from livestock manure. A large number of odorous components are emitted from livestock buildings.

5 Livestock wet scrubber, 2002,5 More than 90% of the Danish pig and poultry houses use mechanical ventilation systems

6 Livestock wet scrubber, 2002,6 Objective and vision To obtain the fundamental knowledge needed for the development of the new concept for the wet scrubbers for livestock buildings. Demands for the reduction of offensive odour will be intensified A new concept of wet scrubber will be the technical solution. An extensive application can be expected

9 9 Despite the fact that the wet scrubber is a well-known technology; it is not directly applicable in livestock buildings, due to the following specific conditions: Ventilation air and, thereby water, contains organic dust, ammonia and low concentrations of many different odorous components. (multiple pollutants) A relative large amount of water will be needed. The wet scrubber performance should be effective at variable air volumes, controlled by the ventilation system. The requirement for reduction of offensive odour and dust emission depends on the wind direction and the relative location of livestock buildings and neighbouring houses.
