His research and extension programs focus on developing and assessing practical livestock manure management and air quality control. Dr. Lim is an active member of the University of Missouri Dairy and Swine Focus Teams, who develop extension materials, interact with producers, cooperate with businesses, and conduct various research programs appropriate to livestock industry needs. His current research projects focus on biofiltration and anaerobic digestion.
