Information about the current legal requirements related to the emission of ammonia and greenhouse gases from animal housing in 21 EU and 5 non-EU countries is presented. Overall the review shows that most of the included countries have established procedures to limit ammonia emissions, however there are no requirements to limit greenhouse gas emission. The review indicates that the important animal producing countries have implemented the EU requirements, and, that only a few countries with a large pig population have implemented requirements that are stricter than what is required by the EU. This is a unique overview of the situation that has gained nearly 400 reads in Research Gate since June 2019.
B.03 Paper at an international scientific conference
COBISS.SI-ID: 5785960Micro biomethane modular plant is result of joint development work of Omega Air andAgriculturalInstitute of Slovenia, Department of Agricultural Engineering and Energy. Also this is the first such micro-device to enable the production of biomethane on a larger scale and measuring the different physical and chemical properties of biogas and biomethane for research, development and educational work. Prize: Dr. Viktor Jejčič, KIS and Igor Škrjanec and Edvard Sojer from Omega Air d.o.o. received a silver medal for innovation, at 17. International Exhibition of Innovation ARCA 2019
