Emission and distribution of ammonia from turkey farm

Journal Title: Civil and Environmental Engineering Reports - Year 2013, Vol 1, Issue 11

Abstract

The objective of the study was to determine the emissions of ammonia and the extent of its impact on the environment. On the farm there are two livestock buildings. The ammonia emission was calculated on the basis of the emission ratio per 1 m2 of the usable area of the building, for females determined at 1.38 kg per annum [9]. The volume of emission and the dispersion of ammonia was calculated at the height of 0.0 m and 6.5 m above ground level with the KOMIN and RWW programs. Regardless of the height at which the calculation was done, the highest of the maximum concentrations was observed 16 m from the emitters situated in the roof ridge and 1 m from the emitters in the sidewall. The values of average annual concentrations and maximum 1-hour concentrations were higher for calculations at 0.0 m than 6.5 m. Within the area where the reference values were exceeded there is a compact rural residential area, whose west part is subject to very high above-standard ammonia concentrations much more frequently.<br/><br/>
