Abstract

The effects of the mixture ratios of swine manure and food wastes when vermicomposed on earthworm(Eisenia foefida) growth, the production amounts and the chemical properties of casts for plant growth media were evaluated to optimal mixture ratio. Earthworms were grown in swine manure, substituted with 0%, 20%, 40%, 60%, 50% and 100% food wastes. All of earthworm grown in swine manure substituted with 60%, 80%, and 100% food wastes died, therefore the process of swine manure substituted with 60%, 80%, and 100% food wastes by vermicomposting were impossible in this experiment. Worm cast produced from swine manure substituted with 0%, 20% and 40% food wastes after vermicomposting sufficiently contained required quantities of available phosphorus, exchangeable potassium, exchangeable magnesium, and cation exchange capacity. The survival rates of earthworm in swine manure substituted with 0% and 40% food wastes was significantly higher than those in swine manure substituted with 20%, 40% food wastes. Casts weight and proportion of casts weight in 100% swine manure were significantly higher than those in swine manure substituted with 20% food wastes, but was no significant difference between those in swine manure substituted with 40% food wastes. Therefore 100% swine manure was estimated to be superior than the others treatments. However an adequate mixture ratio of food wastes for processing mixture of swine manure by vermicomposting was estimated to be 40%. Because there was no significant difference in mean flesh weight, increasing rate, casts weight, proportion of casts weight, and reduction rate of volatile solids among 3 treatments and survival rate and conversion efficiency(CE) in swine manure with substituted 40% food wastes were significantly higher than the other treatments.

Vermicomposting에 의한 돈 분의 처리를 위하여 음식물 쓰레기와의 혼합비율을 달리 했을 때, 지렁이의 생육, 분립생산량, 분립의 화학적 조성 및 지렁이 체 조직으로 전환율과 전환효율 및 분립의 화학적 조성을 조사하여, 돈 분과 음식물 쓰레기의 정적 혼합비율을 추정 하였다. 돈 분 40% 이하의 혼합비율(음식물쓰레기 60-100%)에서는 지렁이의 생존율이 인정되지 않았지만, 돈 분 60-100% 혼합비율의 생존율은 72.7-100%의 범위를 나타내어 매우 높았다. 분립생산량과 분립비율은 돈 분 100% 수준이 80% 수준보다 유의하게 높았지만, 60% 수준과는 유의한 차이가 인정되지 않았다. 지렁이 분립의 유효인산과 양이온 치환용량과 치환성 칼륨과 마그네슘은 모든 혼합비율에서 높았다. 지렁이에 의한 유기물의 무기화 율은 돈 분 100%와 80%의 수준에서 유의하게 높았고, 전환효율(CE)은 돈 분 60% 혼합비율에서 유의하게 높았다. 이상의 결과로 볼 때, vermicomposting에 의한 돈 분의 처리를 위해서는 음식물쓰레기와의 혼합비율을 40% 이하(돈 분 60% 이상)로 혼합하는 것이 유리하였다.
