ABB’s solutions are expected to improve engineering efficiency, operator effectiveness and asset utilization. The site will increase global production of Bovaer®, dsm-firmenich’s innovative methane-reducing feed additive for cows and cattle that has been researched and developed for more than 15 years. The company claims a quarter teaspoon of Bovaer® per cow, per day can reduce enteric methane emissions by an average of 30 percent for dairy cows and by an average of 45 percent for feedlot beef cattle – contributing to a significant reduction of the environmental footprint of dairy and beef products. Almost 600 million tonnes of methane are emitted in the atmosphere every year – with the livestock sector contributing 32 percent of all methane emissions. Reducing these is crucial for efforts to keep global warming below the 1.5°C target outlined in the Paris Agreement.
