ABSTRACTOrganic crusts on liquid manure storage tanks harbor ammonia- and nitrite-resistant methane oxidizers and may significantly reduce methane emissions. Methane oxidation potential (0.6 mol CH4m−2day−1) peaked during fall and winter, after 4 months of crust development. Consequences for methane mitigation potential of crusts are discussed.

Diet manipulation is a promising way for reducing phosphorus (P) content in manure and subsequently in surface water. The objective of this study is to clarify the effects of dietary fiber content on P distribution in fresh and stored liquid hog manure. Ten, 25 L liquid manure storage tanks were constructed and operated to simulate farm-based manure storage lagoons. Fifteen pigs were randomly grouped into three pens and the pigs in each pen were fed with a diet of different fiber contents (12%, 16%, and 21%). For 20 weeks, one litre of liquid manure from each pen was fed to each storage tank once a week with 3 replicate storage tanks per diet treatment. The samples of fresh and stored manure, each representing a diet treatment, were analyzed for P distribution along the fractions of dissolved organic, dissolved inorganic, particulate organic, and particulate inorganic. The results showed that fresh manure derived from the high fiber diet contained lower total P concentrations. Of the four fractions of total P, particulate organic P and particulate inorganic P composed 95.3% to 97.5% of total P in the fresh manure. After storage, the dissolved P concentration increased from around 25 ppm to 30–60 ppm. Inorganic P was the main fraction in dissolved P and composed 80% of the dissolved P in stored manure. The dissolved inorganic P, and therefore the total dissolved P were speculated to increase with manure storage time, indicating microbial activity through digestion. It was concluded that a higher fiber diet yielding manure with higher fiber content resulted in enhanced anaerobic degradation during manure storage. This, in return might promote the destruction of organic materials, resulting in the release of P and subsequent formation of inorganic dissolved P.

Odour Concentration

The effects of agitation, liquid-only manure, depth and time on odour emission rates were investigated. Manure storage tanks were filled to incremental depths every two weeks. At each depth odour samples were collected twice. The second sample was collected seven days after the first. Odour concentration was measured with an olfactometer. Three different pig-manure treatments were investigated. In one treatment, slurry manure in a storage tank was agitated before and during odour sampling. In a second treatment, the settlable solids in manure were removed gravimetrically over 24 hours and liquid manure was pumped to a storage tank. In the third treatment (control), odour samples were collected from unseparated and undisturbed slurry manure. Overall, the odour emission rates in the agitated manure treatment ranged between 0.39 and 1.02 ou s−1 m−2, increased with depth and decreased with time, i.e. after seven days at each depth. In the liquid-only manure treatment, the emission rates ranged between 0.09 and 0.69 ou s−1 m−2, increased with depth but the effect of time was not evident. In the control treatment, the emission rates ranged between 0.20 and 0.66 ou s−1 m−2 and increased with depth on the first odour sampling day but decreased with depth on the second sampling day.
