Sustainability Problem:

The increase in pollution has increased the need to produce food to sustain this growth. Growing livestock produces high levels of ammonia concentration in the barns. This has a negative impact on the quality of the air in the vicinity of the farm.

Technology:

1. Ammonia polluted air enters the biofilter.
2. There is also a heat exchanger that captures some of the heat and transfers it back into the barn along with fresh air.
3. The prototype has been proven successful in a farm with 5,000 chickens.

Stakeholders:

• Farmers
• People living around farm land

Steps for deployment:

• Start by deploying technology is farms with more than 5,000 chickens
• Approach national brands, because they have resources to implement technology
