Abstract
Program OPEN (Odor, Pathogens, and Emissions of Nitrogen) was an integrated study of the emissions of ammonia
(NH3), odor and odorants, and pathogens from potential environmentally superior technologies (ESTs) for swine facilities
in eastern North Carolina. This paper, as part of program OPEN, focuses on quantifying emissions of NH3 from water-
