LOMBARDIA MEETS ZUID HOLLANDBILATERAL WORKSHOP, October 14, 2016
The context……………
Lombardy Region…. one of the more industrialized and intensively cultivated area of Europe:
- Lombardy region: 0.56 % of EU27 land;
- Lombardy Region: 1.9 % of EU27 population;
- Lombardy Region: 2.7% of EU27 GDP (e.g. the same of Belgium or Sweden).
Pop. 9.800.000 inhabit.
Total agricultural land: ca .1 x 106 Ha…
Animals consistency in Lombardy :
-1,553,782 cow (30% Italy)
- 4,857,700 pigs (40% Italy)
- 36,161,319 poultry
- 91,800 Sheep….others

Ammonia in air
1 ammonia volatilization form slurry/manure
2 NH3 react with sulfuric acid and nitric acid giving secondary particulate:
ammonia sulfate
ammonia bisulfate
ammonia nitrate
4 PM 2.5
NH3 : contributed to PM 2.5

Proposal: Gruppo Ricicla and Regione Lombardia:
Visto il parere circostanziato della Commissione, emessoai sensi dell’art. 6, paragrafo 2, della direttiva (UE)
n. 2015/1535 del Parlamento europeo e del Consiglio del9 settembre 2015, con il quale la Commissione ha rilevatoche l’art. 32 «Condizioni di equiparabilità del digestato aiconcimi di origine chimica» dello schema notificato, non
è conforme alle disposizioni della direttiva nitrati;Ritenuto di dover recepire il parere della Commissione
e di dover quindi eliminare l’art. 32 ed il connesso art. 33dello schema di decreto;
Full scale trial: 2013-2016(in collaboration with ERSAF)Two farms.

requires drying then pelletizing machines
• Reduction in volume• Visually more attractive• Improved marketability• Hygienization (>70°C, for 1hour)• Transport-ready product
ADVANTAGES:
Traditional use of fertilizers
Traditional use implemented for emission
reduction
Renewable Fertilizers® protocols
Environmanetal impact of digestate use in substitution of shyntetic fertilizers.
