Mechanism and Effect of Temperature on Variations in Antibiotic Resistance Genes during Anaerobic Digestion of Dairy Manure

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2016
Animal manure comprises an important reservoir for antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), but the variation in ARGs during anaerobic digestion at various temperatures and its underlying mechanism remain unclear.

Waste Management and Waste Disposal Detected by Combination of Analytical Methods: Late Bronze Age Březnice Settlement Site (South Bohemia)

open access: yesArchaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Waste disposal processes and landfill management are crucial subjects in the field of settlement archaeology. Our study is focused on understanding the processes that are connected to the formation of the infills of settlement features and the recycling of the building materials (daub and wood) and waste management.

The Economics of Manure Utilization: Model and Application [PDF]

open access: yes
A model of manure utilization is developed and applied to four types of transportable manure. Model results highlight important response differences among manure types and generally illustrate the diseconomies of manure production. For example, as manure

Global manure nitrogen production and application in cropland during 1860–2014: a 5 arcmin gridded global dataset for Earth system modeling

open access: yes, 2017
. Given the important role of nitrogen input from livestock systems in terrestrial nutrient cycles and the atmospheric chemical composition, it is vital to have a robust estimation of the magnitude and spatiotemporal variation in manure nitrogen ...

Nitrogen, Phosphorus, and Potassium Flows through the Manure Management Chain in China.

open access: yesEnvironmental Science and Technology, 2016
The largest livestock production and greatest fertilizer use in the world occurs in China. However, quantification of the nutrient flows through the manure management chain and their interactions with management-related measures is lacking.

Production of Biogas Using Dairy Manure as Feedstock and Rumen Fluid as Inoculum

open access: yesJournal of Applied Science & Process Engineering, 2016
Methane gas is a valuable gas that can be used as a source of energy, either used for cooking fuel or small-scale electricity production. The most suitable application of the methane gas is in rural areas which rarely have the source of energy.

Evaluation of enzymatic pretreatment strategies to enhance anaerobic digestion of tomato waste

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Tomato residues are a form of solid waste that can be converted into methane through anaerobic digestion (AD). However, methane production is often limited due to incomplete hydrolysis caused by the high lignocellulosic content of tomato waste.

Belt separation system under slat in fattening pig housing: Effect of belt type and extraction frequency [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The efficiency of manure separation by a conveyor belt under a partially slatted floor for fattening pigs was determined for two types of belts, a flat belt with an incline of up to 6° transversely and a concave belt with an incline of up to 1 ...

Closing the nutrient loop between urban and rural areas: a case study analyzing the technical potential of recycling fertilizers from urban biorefineries

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract The world's population is expected to grow rapidly, with the vast majority of people living in urban areas. Closing nutrient loops is therefore increasingly important for food security and environmental stability. In Germany however, the current treatment of organic and green waste and sewage sludge (derived from wastewater) includes ...

Soil biological quality in short- and long-term field trials with conventional and organic fertility input types [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Soils of the DOK trial and three other field trials with manure input were analysed for effects on soil biology. While long-term effects indicate a new steady state at the DOK trial site, differences at the other field trials suggest that fresh manure at
