Research fields: Influence of biological regulations on the determinism of gaseous emissions, heat production and change of phase or speciation: nature of the causal variables, hierarchy of the variables as a function of process, environment, scale. Optimization of animal productions for food or non-food uses: minimization of solid, liquid and gaseous pollution by maximizing the recycling of byproducts, minimization of energy, water and nutrient inputs at farm scale (modeling). Development of measuring methods to quantify gaseous and PM emissions from livestock buildings and manure management facilities. Project experiences : Has been involved for around 30 research projects concerning the environmental impact of animal production (modeling and experiment, emitting processes), air quality in animal house, the development of methodologies to quantify emissions of animal house and manure storage, emission factors and invetories.
