Reducing Ammonia and Methane Emissions Through Acidification of Slurry
Acidification of slurry is becoming a major concern in agricultural practices. New research has found that ammonia and methane emissions can be decreased by adjusting the acidity of the slurry. The study, conducted by University of Wageningen researchers, looked at how different levels of acidity could affect emissions from slurry.
The researchers found that when the acidity of the slurry was increased, the emissions of ammonia and methane were both reduced. This suggests that acidification of the slurry could be a viable technique for reducing the impact of these pollutants on our environment. The researchers also noted that further research is needed to fully understand the potential benefits of acidification on slurry emissions.
