Improvement of human health and environmental costs in the European Union by air scrubbers in intensive pig farming

Comparison of ammonia air concentration before and during the spread of COVID-19 in Lombardy (Italy) using ground-based and satellite data

“…In the future, a significant reduction in NH 3 air concentrations is expected as a consequence of the abatement measures that are being introduced in agricultural and livestock farms (e.g., closed tank storages, manure and slurry treatments, precision application of slurry on field) ( Finzi et al, 2019 ; Zilio et al, 2020 ), although these measures are currently present only in few contexts. Considerable improvements have already been introduced in the European Union, which brought to a strong reduction of NH 3 air concentration, reaching −24% from 1990 to 2017 ( Costantini et al, 2020 ). However, this trend of reduction is proceeding further; in fact, in some countries, regions, and farms additional improvements are being introduced or are under study.…”

Draft Genome Sequence of Stenotrophomonas daejeonensis Strain NLF4-10 Isolated from Livestock Wastewater

“…Wastewater treatment plants emit various kinds of odor pollutants, like ammonia, hydrogen sulfide, volatile fatty acids, acetic acid, styrene, and other organic compounds ( 1 – 3 ). These malodorous gases in livestock manure adversely affect human beings, such as causing irritation to the nose, headache, dizziness, hyperemia, asphyxiation, nausea, and unconsciousness ( 4 , 5 ). Recently, strain NLF4-10 was isolated during the investigation of the odor reducing bacteria.…”

Production Efficiency Prediction of Pig Breeding Industry by Optimized LSTM Computer Algorithm under Environmental Regulation

“…For a long time, China's pig breeding industry has been dominated by the scattered breeding, with a low degree of scale breeding. However, in recent years, affected by the increase of opportunity cost and environmental protection supervision, retail investors began to withdraw from the pig breeding industry, and the scale of domestic pig breeding is further improving [10]. Moreover, in order to regulate China's pork production, many policy documents have been issued to promote the development of pig industry; promote the pig breeding industry from the perspectives of land, subsidies, and environmental protection; stabilize the supply of pork production, further promote the transformation, upgrading, and development of pig industry; and promote the optimized development of pig breeding industry to a strategic development position [11].…”
