+Added: To that end, Bion has directed most of its limited resources to pursuing opportunities to
+Added: apply its Ammonia Recovery System (ARS) as a bolt-on or ‘standalone’ ammonia control solution in the industrial sector.
+Added: such cases, the ARS would be deployed as an ammonia control solution (vs integrated into a Bion Gen3Tech livestock platform) for facilities
+Added: (both new and existing) that produce biogas from organic waste streams, such as food, food processing, and livestock packing/slaughter.
+Added: These facilities are subject to EPA-mandated discharge limits that require ammonia control or face other limitations on ammonia/nitrogen
+Added: in the effluent from biogas production.
+Added: We will also seek to identify opportunities to provide ammonia control solutions in the livestock/animal

+Added: While we have not
