Methods of producing a fertilizer product from organic waste are disclosed. The methods may include introducing a gas stream having nitrogenous compounds into a nitrogenous liquid containing a salt of ammonia to absorb the nitrogenous compounds in the liquid and produce a treated gas. The methods may also include controlling the pH of certain solutions or introducing an oxidant into certain solutions to produce nitrogen ions. Systems for removing nitrogenous compounds including a reaction subsystem, an oxidation control subsystem, a dissolved solids concentrator, and a recirculation line are also disclosed. The systems may be employed to remove nitrogenous compounds from a gas stream, recover the nitrogenous compounds from the gas stream, or produce a fertilizer product from the recovered nitrogenous compounds.

A method for binding hazardous ammonia in both liquid or gaseous states from organic waste streams using carbon dioxide at ambient temperature and under ambient pressure to reduce ammonia emissions from farming or industrial operations. The method entraps a quantity of ammonia in an ammonia solution by reacting the quantity of ammonia with a quantity of carbon dioxide within a primary reaction vessel to form an ammonia-bound solution at ambient temperature and under ambient pressure. The ammonia-bound solution is able to be stored or transported for use in future chemical processes.

An air purification and recirculation system positioned within an animal rearing/sheltering facility. The system draws untreated air into an elongated air treatment apparatus having a dust scrubbing section, an ammonia scrubbing section, and acid scrubbing section, configured so that the treatment sections are positioned in series. At the end of the air treatment process, the treated air is exhausted back into the animal rearing facility so that the air is circulated within the facility. Acid and water used during the air treatment process are continuously recycled and directed back through the scrubbers in the air treatment apparatus.

Systems and methods of producing a concentrated solution from a gas stream are disclosed. The method of producing a concentrate solution includes introducing the gas stream having the contaminant into an absorption chamber, introducing a dilute liquid having the contaminant into the absorption chamber, at least one of the gas stream and the dilute liquid being at an elevated temperature, and contacting the gas stream with the dilute solution to produce a liquid-enriched gas stream and a concentrate solution. The systems for producing a concentrated solution include a source of a gas stream having a contaminant, a source of a dilute solution having the contaminant, and an absorption chamber fluidly connected to the source of the gas stream and the source of the dilute solution. The source of the dilute solution can have a subsystem for removing contaminants from the gas stream, constructed and arranged to receive the gas stream or a liquid-enriched gas and produce the dilute solution.
