2. Agricultural Ammonia emissions
The methods of reduction was defined in:
act about atmosphere saving
act about IPPC
related legislative

3. Agricultural Ammonia emissions
Emissions reduced technology:
A) animal house environment used technology
using amonia chemical bond erosion additives in feed, water and on bedding
enzymatic materials application on bedding
using of recuperators
timely removed of exkrements

7. Agricultural Ammonia emissions
Measuring of emissions:
method is relevant to the ACETO protocol
measurings are one-time, continualy, 24 hours
measuring method must fulfil a requirement of the finest quality
measuring devices must fulfil a requirement of metrology
