Manure Storage & Handling - Impermeable Covers

Impermeable covers can be used to reduce odors and emissions from manure storage or to capture biogas for heat or power generation. Impermeable covers are placed on manure storage structures to create a physical barrier that prevents the transfer of volatile chemical compounds from the manure storage headspace to the atmosphere.
