Pilot-scale testing of renewable biocatalyst for swine manure treatment and mitigation of odorous VOCs, ammonia and hydrogen sulfide emissions

AbstractComprehensive control of odors, hydrogen sulfide (H2S), ammonia (NH3), and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions associated with swine production is a critical need. A pilot-scale experiment was conducted to evaluate surface-applied soybean peroxidase (SBP) and calcium peroxide (CaO2) as a manure additive to mitigate emissions of odorous volatile organic compounds (VOC) including dimethyl disulfide/methanethiol (DMDS/MT), dimethyl trisulfide, n-butyric acid, valeric acid, isovaleric acid, p-cresol, indole, and skatole. The secondary impact on emissions of NH3, H2S, and GHG was also measured. The SBP was tested at four treatments (2.28–45.7 kg/m2 manure) with CaO2 (4.2% by weight of SBP) over 137 days. Significant reductions in VOC emissions were observed: DMDS/MT (36.2%–84.7%), p-cresol (53.1%–89.5%), and skatole (63.2%–92.5%). There was a corresponding significant reduction in NH3 (14.6%–67.6%), and significant increases in the greenhouse gases CH4 (32.7%–232%) and CO2 (20.8%–124%). The remaining emissions (including N2O) were not statistically different. At a cost relative to 0.8% of a marketed hog it appears that SBP/CaO2 treatment could be a promising option at the lowest (2.28 kg/m2) treatment rate for reducing odorous gas and NH3 emissions at swine operations, and field-scale testing is warranted.

HighlightsSoybean peroxidase (SBP) is a bio-based, soybean-derived, low cost product.Topical treatment using SBP/CaO2 to mitigate gas emissions from manure was tested.Emissions reduced up to 68% (NH3), 85% (DMDS/MT), 90% (p-cresol), & 93% (skatole).There was a corresponding increase in CO2 & CH4 emissions.The remaining target gas emissions (including N2O) were not statistically different.
