Odor emission from mixtures of ground swine carcass material and liquid swine waste
January 1, 1999By Chuck Clanton
Mixing ground swine carcasses with the manure waste stream is a new concept currently being researched as an alternative carcass-disposal method. A concern has been raised with this method regarding...
The use of ozone to reduce the concentration of malodorous metabolites in swine manure slurry
January 1, 1999By Jerry J. Wu
A pilot-scale ozonation system was constructed and operated to reduce the malodours emanating from fresh and stored swine manure slurry. The concentrations of the malodorous bacterial metabolites...
Ammonia volatization from liquid hog manure amended with paper products in the laboratory
January 1, 1999
Losses of N from livestock operations due to ammonia (NH3) volatilization from animal wastes is a major source of pollution in Europe and North America, and represents a significant economic loss....
Measurements of odour and hydrogen sulfide emissions from swine barns
January 1, 1999
Odour and hydrogen sulfide (H2S) emissions were measured on ten swine farms in southern Manitoba between May and October in 1999 and 2000. On each selected farm, air samples were taken from barn...
Optimization of liquid swine manure sidedress rate and method for grain corn
January 1, 1999By B. R. Ball-Coelho
Sidedressing may provide a better window of opportunity for land application of liquid swine (Sus scrofa) manure than early spring or fall application. Rates could be fine-tuned to match crop N...

Pork Fat and Lipid Metabolism
November 1, 1998By Pramod Khosla
If pork is to become the “meat of choice” by the year 2000, the consumer needs to be convinced of pork’s superiority, or at least its similarity with poultry (specifically chicken), in terms of it being an effective component of a “heart-healthy” diet.
Application of Near-Infrared Technology to Swine Manure Analysis
November 1, 1998By Charles Hurburgh
Ninety seven samples were obtained from swine finishing manure pits. The samples were used to test and compare two NIR machines for prediction capabilities of manure nutrients. An NIRSystems 6500...
