AMMONIA 4.0 “Digital twin for the integrated management of ammonia emissions in pig farms”.
Compliance with current and forthcoming legislation regarding air quality significantly limits the ammonia emissions allowed for pig farms (16% reduction by 2030), which implies the need to implement emission reduction technologies.
The overall objective of the project is to adopt and exploit digitalization technologies for risk minimization in decision making on the adoption, implementation and operation of technology for the control and minimization of ammonia emissions in pig farms.
The activities to be carried out to achieve the general objective of the project are planned in three phases:
AMMONIA_4.0 is a project that aims to collaborate in the reduction of ammonia emissions dictated by current legislation. The objective of the project is to exploit digitalization technologies for risk minimization in decision making on the adoption, implementation and operation of technology for the control and minimization of ammonia emissions in pig farms.
To date, work has been carried out on the digital twin for the integrated management of ammonia emissions in pig farms. Phase 1 – Virtual Sensorization”, led by the Spanish Pig Producers Cluster (i+Porc), with the participation of four other entities from different fields: the Technological Institute of Aragon (ITAINNOVA); Nabladot, a company specialized in fluid simulation; Exafan, a specialist in construction and climate control on farms, and the integrator company Vall Companys.
