Abstract | The chemical composition and size distribution of particulate matter produced at broiler poultry houses is not well understood, so this is a novel study to understand the particulate size distributions at a poultry house as well as the ionic composition of the particulate matter using real-time methods. Two optical particle counters provided particle size distributions inside and outside the house. An ambient ion monitor and a particle-in-liquid sampler analyzed the ionic chemical composition of the particulate matter in the house while a scanning mobility particle sizer provided size information in the nanoparticle range. Ammonia concentrations in the house were measured using a chemical sensor. Ammonia concentrations in the house were consistently in the lower part of the per million range 2–20 ppm. The optical particle counter and ion chromatography measurements both showed a strong |
