Abstract
Abstract. The effectiveness of zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles as filtering media for controlling the levels of hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S), ammonia (NH 3 ), and odor in swine facilities was evaluated in this study. Semi-pilot scale tests were done to determine basic operational factors, the results of which showed that the fluidized bed air filtration system (FBAFS), loaded with ZnO nanoparticles at a rate of 0.28 g cm -2 of filter area, and a gas flow rate equivalent to 0.5 m s -1 face velocity achieved significant reduction in target gas levels. The performance of this filter system was further investigated in a room-scale environmental chamber representative of normal swine production conditions. When installed as part of the ventilation air recirculation system of the room, the FBAFS with ZnO nanoparticles achieved about 65% H 2 S and 42% NH 3 reductions in the human-occupied zones but had no significant impact on pig performance as well as odor levels in the chamber.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
