%X The objective of the study was actually the investigation of the effect of various organic wastes on the ability of urine in absorbing CO<sub>2</sub>. Urine alone or mixed with olive-oil-mill waste waters (O), poultry litter (P) or meat bone meal (M) was used on the absorption of CO<sub>2</sub> from a gas bottle. The absorption capacity (1.35 - 2.85 gCO<sub>2</sub>/gNH<sub>4</sub>) was bigger than other solvents such as ammonia and amines. The range of CO2 absorption was significantly bigger for the organic mixtures P and PM with urine (9.1 - 11.8) g/L than urine alone 6.5 g/L. These organic wastes could be used to increase CO<sub>2</sub> absorption in urine and reduce gas emissions.
