Objective: This study was conducted to determine reduction of various odorous materials from a swine farm equipped with a continuous pit recirculation system (CPRS) with aerobically treated liquid manure. Methods: The CPRS is used in swine farms in South Korea, primarily to improve air quality in pig houses. In this study, CPRS consists of a manure aerobic treatment system and a fit recirculation system; the solid fraction is separated and composted, whereas the aerobically treated liquid fraction (290.0%±21.0% per day of total stored swine slurry) is continuously returned to the pit. Four confinement pig barns in three piggery farms were used; two were equipped with CPRS and the other two operated a slurry pit under the slatted floor. Results: All chemical contents of slurry pit manure in the control were greater than those of slurry pit manure in the CRPS treatment (p<0.05). Electrical conductivity and pH contents did not differ among treatments. The biological oxygen demand of the slurry pit treatment was greater than that of the other treatments (p<0.05). Total nitrogen, total phosphorus, and ammonia nitrogen contents of the slurry pit treatment were greater than those of other treatments (p<0.05). Odor intensity of the CPRS treatment was lower than that of the control at indoor, exhaust, and outside sampling points (p<0.05). The temperature and carbon dioxide of the CPRS treatment in the pig barn was significantly lower than those of control (p<0.05). All measured odorous material contents of the CPRS group were significantly lower than those of the control group (p<0.05). Conclusion: The CPRS application in pig farms is considered a good option as it continuously reduces the organic load of animal manure and lowers the average odorant concentration below the threshold of detecting odorous materials.

This research was conducted to examine the temporal methane ($CH_4$) and nitrous oxide ($N_2O$) emission trends in livestock agriculture from year 1990 to 2011 with Tier 1 national greenhouse gas (GHG) inventory reporting method, which was related to efforts of decreasing GHG emissions and to achievement of voluntary GHG mitigation target. Methane emissions from enteric fermentation were calculated with default $CH_4$ emission factors of IPCC. Methane and $N_2O$ emissions from manure treatment processes were calculated with Tier 1 and mixture of Tier 1 and Tier 2 including $N_2O$ emission factors of manure treatment systems and nitrogen excretion rate of livestock, respectively. According to 2013 National GHG Inventory Monitoring, Reporting, and Verification report, GHG emission fluctuations from enteric fermentation and manure treatment processes were similarto livestock head fluctuation. GHG emissions from enteric fermentation were mainly affected by beef cattle including Hanwoo, while manure treatment processes were affected by various livestock.

The performance of grass filter strips (GFS) in abating $PO_4$-P concentrations from the forage cropland was tested in an experiment on the 10% slope in Grassland and Forages Division, National Institute of Animal Science, Rural Development Administration (RDA) from October 2007 to September 2009. Forage croplands with rye-corn double cropping system applied with chemical fertilizer and livestock manure (LM) were compared in a natural condition. The plots were hydrologically isolated Main plots consisted of the length of GFS, such as 0m, 5m, 10m and 15m. Sub plots consisted of the type of LM, such as chemical fertilizer (CF), composted cattle manure (CCM) and composted swine manure (CSM). Concentrations of PO4-P in surface runoff water were reduced as the length of GFS increased. Especially, GFS with 10m and 15m reduced $PO_4$-P concentrations significantly compared to that with 0m and 5m (p<0.05). The results from this study suggest that GFS improved the removal and trapping $PO_4$-P from forage croplands.

A field experiment was carried out to determine the effects of seeding methods and rates on the growth characteristics, forage yield and nutritive value of sorghum X sudangrass hybrid (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench, cv. Pioneer 988) grown under application of animal manure in 1995. The application amount of animal manure were 40MT in cattle manure, 30MTha in swine and poultry manure. The methods and rates of seeding treated in this study were drill of 30kg, and broadcast of 30, 60 and 100kgha of seeding rates. The plant height was 180cm, 191cm and 204cm in cattle, swine and poultry manure, respectively. Plant height in the plot of drill was higher by about 15cm than those of broadcast plots. The dry matter(DM) yield was 7.73, 8.87 and 9.80MTha in cattle, swine and poultry manure, respectively. A significant higher forage yield was produced in the plot of drill, compared with broadcast(Pc0.05). DM yields in broadcast of 60kg and lOOkg of seeding rates were higher than that of 30kg of seeding rate of broadcast. However, no significant difference in forage yield was found between 60kg and IOOkg of seeding rates. The average DM yield was 11.16, 6.94, 8.26 and 8.83MTIha in drill(30kg), broadcast 30, 60 and 100kgIMT of seeding rates, respectively. The nutritive value of sorghum x sudangrass hybrid was very similar among treatments. The crude protein yields were 1,010kg in cattle manure, 1,180kg in swine manure, and 1,592kg in poultry manure. The protein yield was significantly high in the plot of drill. In conclusion, seeding by drill was recommended for forage production and protein yield of sorghumxsudangrass hybrid, and proper seeding rates were 30kg in drill and 60kg in broadcast.

우분을 원료로 하여 구 모양의 펠릿(Spherical pellet) 형태로 가공한 우분 고체연료에 대한 건조실험을 수행하였다. 제조한 구 형태의 우분 고체 연료를 선별기에 투입하여 각 크기별로 분리하였다. 건조방식으로는 대류형 열풍건조 방법과 적외선 조사 건조 방법. 그리고 과열증기 적용에 의한 건조방법을 적용하였다. 제조된 펠릿의 직경에 따라 5 mm, 10 mm, 20 mm 로 구분하여 각 입경별 우분 고체연료 가공품의 수분 감소효과를 분석하였다. 가공된 우분 펠릿의 건조에 소요된 시간은 대류형 열풍기 건조 > 적외선 건조 > 과열증기 건조 방법의 순이었다. 과열 증기 적용에 의한 건조방법의 경우 건조에 소요된 시간은 열풍과 적외선 방법에 비해 상대적으로 짧았다. 건조된 상태인 우분 펠릿의 겉보기 비중은 $250{\sim}350kg/m^3$ 수준이었으며, 건조된 우분 펠릿의 저위발열량은 가축분뇨의 관리 및 이용에 관한 법률 시행규칙 별표 2에서 정한 가축분뇨 고체연료의 성분 등에 관한 기준에 규정된 3,000 kcal/kg 보다 높은 수준이었다. 우분 펠릿의 입자크기가 작을수록 모든 건조방법에서 건조에 필요한 시간이 짧게 소요되었다. 5 mm 크기의 우분 펠릿을 건조하였을 때 시료의 무게 변화가 1% 내외가 될 때까지 소요된 시간은 과열증기 적용 시 약 30분, 적외선 조사 시 약 108분, 대류형 열풍 적용 시 약 120분이 소요되었다. 동일한 건조조건일 경우에는 펠릿 입자의 크기를 작게 하는 것이 가축 분 고체연료의 건조시간을 단축하는 중요한 요소인 것으로 판단된다.

가축분 퇴비의 연속적인 과디시용은 토양중의 각종 양분과 염류의 집적을 유도하여 토양의 악화를 초래 할 수 있다. 이러한 현상은 특히, 시설원예 재배지에서 발생하기 쉬운 것으로 알려져 있으나 퇴비 시용 후 퇴비유래 양분의 토양중 거동에 관한 연구는 미흡한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 제주도에 주로 분포하고 있는 하산회토양(구좌통) 및 비화산회토양(애월통)에 시용한 가축분 퇴비(계분, 우분 및 돈분)의 질소, 인산, 칼리 및 염류의 토양중 거동을 파악하기 위하여, 토양시용 180일 후에 토층별($0{\sim}30$, $31{\sim}60$및 $61{\sim}90\;cm$)로 토양을 채취하여 토양화학성을 조사하였다. 가축분(계분) 퇴비 시용 후 질산태질소의 토양 중 거동을 검토한 결과 화산회토양의 경우, 질산태질소는 90 cm 범위의 토층까지 이동하였으나, 비화산회토양의 경우에는 $0{\sim}60\;cm$ 범위의 토층에 주로 분포하고 있었다. 인산의 경우, 화산회토양에서는 작물의 뿌리가 주로 분포하는 작토층 ($0{\sim}30\;cm$)에서 다량 검출되었으며, 화산회토양에서는 90 cm 범위의 토층에 까지 이동하였으나, 비화산회토양에서는 60 cm 범위의 토층까지 이동하는데 그쳤다. 토양의 염류농도의 경우 화산회토양에서는 주로 $0{\sim}60\;cm$ 범위에서 높은 농도로 검출된 반면, 비화산회토양에서는 토층에 따른 큰 차이를 인정할 수 없었을 뿐만 아니라, 화산회토양에 비하여 현저히 낮은 수준이었다.

Background: Dietary manipulation is a common practice to mitigate gaseous emission from livestock production facilities, and the variation of fat level in the diet has shown great influence on ruminal volatile fatty acids (VFA) and enteric methane generation. The changes in dietary fat levels influence rumen chemistry that could modify manure nutrient composition along with odor and gaseous emissions from manure management facilities. Methods: A field experiment was carried out on beef cattle feedlots to investigate the effect of four levels of dietary fat concentrations (3 to 5.5 %) on the manure composition and gaseous emissions (methane-$CH_4$, nitrous oxide-$N_2O$, carbon dioxide-$CO_2$ and hydrogen sulfide-$H_2S$) from the feedlot pen surface. The experiment was carried out over a 5-month period from June to October during North Dakota's summer-fall climatic condition. Air and manure sampling was conducted five times at a 20-30 day intervals. Results: Overall, this research indicated that fat levels in diet have no or little effect on the nutrient composition of manure and gaseous emission from the pens with cattle fed with different diet. Though significant variation of gaseous emission and manure composition were observed between different sampling periods, no effect of high fat diet was observed on manure composition and gaseous emission. Conclusions: It can be concluded that addition of fat to animal diet may not have any impact on gaseous emission and manure compositions.
