Qual foi o desafio/problema abordado?
The aim of the Ammosafe project is to recover ammonium nitrogen from liquid manure using a technical process to give farms a more environmentally friendly and socially compatible way of spreading liquid manure. The project also aims to tackle challenges in manure management (storage and application) with a mobil and affordable solution. Modern animal husbandry and the constantly changing legal framework present agriculture with a wide variety of challenges in the areas of fertilizer logistics, nutrient efficiency, social compatibility, and air, groundwater and soil protection.
Quais são os fatores de sucesso na resolução do problema?
Providing a commercially competitive technology.
Implementation of the technology in practice.
Scientifically proven reduction of emissions to groundwater and air
What were the main challenges during the innovation process?
Development of a plant technically mature for continuous operation in agricultural practice.
Achieving the highest possible mobility with the highest possible throughput.
Interpretation of the measurement data concerning emissions into groundwater in connection with fertilisation and yield
