Description

Adrián González-Guzmán and co-authors build filters from industrial leftovers that trap gases rising off pig slurry, in a 2026 study. Farm emissions foul air and waste nutrients, and a filter that later feeds soil would close two loops at once.

Three layered filters were tested against slurry gas. All caught over three quarters of the nitrogen emitted and up to ninety-five percent of ammonia. The best filter was then mixed into soil planted with ryegrass. Germination and root growth improved, though top growth fell. The amended soil also lost less nitrogen in soluble form. The authors present the filters as tools for both emission control and nutrient recycling.
