New York—Bion Environmental Technologies, Inc. reports that it has successfully completed pilot testing of a new proprietary ammonia recovery system (ARS) technology. The ARS enables the recovery of ammonia nitrogen from the treated livestock waste water in the form of ammonium sulfate. Bion said the pilot demonstrated transfer efficiency of ammonia that was consistent with Bion’s projected commercial operation model of 80 percent or greater. Bion will conduct final field trials of the ARS this summer as part of a broader commercial-scale trial at Kreider Farms, Manheim, Penn., to determine the overall economics of this newest generation of its technology platform.
