Research and product development project on the Pasrea composting system

DESCRIPTION OF ACTION

The aim of the project is to carry out scientific research into and further develop a litter and other manure processing system based on composting and invented by Pasrea Oy. When the system functions properly, the rate of the reaction can be controlled and the end products recovered are ammonia, thermal energy and soil improving compost. Collecting the end products reduces the need to purchase fertilisers and energy on farms and enables implementation of the circular economy in practice.
