EPI Air is the manufacturer of Bio-Cap lagoon covers that reduce emissions from swine lagoons. Odors and odorous emissions that travel from animal feeding operations to farm water treatment lagoons can be controlled with the Bio-Cap multi-layer Lagoon Covers.
EPI Air has several different types of permeable and impermeable lagoon covers available to meet the needs of the operation. Numerous lagoon cover case studies and research have been conducted that demonstrate the effectiveness of the Bio-Cap Lagoon cover. For instance, one study by Southern Utah University showed an 83.7% decrease in odor of the covered lagoons compared to the uncovered anaerobic lagoons.
