Ammonia CapChar - Emissions reductions from slurry stores

氨CapChar项目将由CapChar有限公司与分包商Tumblebug Ltd和剑桥生态有限公司共同领导。生物炭是一种碳基材料，具有较大的表面积和阳离子交换能力，使其能够吸收营养物质和氨。该项目旨在展示在液体料浆存储上使用生物炭覆盖物显著减少存储期间氨排放的有效性。该项目将探索如何创建一种新的、循环的、可持续的解决方案，通过农场热解技术生产生物炭，从而节省成本并创造新的收入来源。通过部署这项技术，生物炭可以用于其他农业实践，从而进一步提高氨排放效率。生物炭或生物炭填充物一旦用完，就可以成为一种缓释肥料，将养分保留在农场上，并减少农田和径流到水道中的氮素流失。

The Ammonia CapChar Project will be led by CapChar Ltd alongside subcontractors Tumblebug Ltd and Cambridge Eco Ltd.Biochar is a carbon based material that has a large surface area and a cation exchange capacity that enables it to sorb nutrients and ammonia. The project aims to demonstrate the effectiveness of biochar covers on liquid slurry stores to significantly reduce ammonia emissions during storage. This project will explore how a new local, circular, sustainable solution can be created to produce biochar via on-farm pyrolysis technology, providing savings and new revenue streams. By deploying this technology, biochar could be used in other agricultural practices leading to further ammonia emission reduction efficiency gains.The biochar or biochar-filled covers, once spent, can become a slow release fertiliser, keeping nutrients on-farm and reducing nitrogen losses from agricultural land and run-off into waterways.
