Simulating Swine Manure Transport in Soils Using the Mobile-Immobile Contaminant Transport Model
Modeling swine manure transport is an important initial step not only in understanding the behavior of this potential contaminant in the subsurface environment but also in providing a basis for...
Swine Wastewater Treatment in an Integrated System of Anaerobic Digestion and Duckweed Nutrient Removal
Organics destruction and nutrient uptake in an integrated pilot system of anaerobic digestion and duckweed nutrient removal for swine wastewater treatment were monitored under field conditions. Raw...
Solid-liquid separation of flushed swine manure with PAM: effect of wastewater strength
Organic polymers are useful to increase separation of suspended solids and reduced carbon compounds from liquid swine manure. Along with the solids, there is a capture of the nutrients associated...
Precipitation of swine and cattle manure phosphorous using limestone dust
The effectiveness of SPS and PULPRO, fine limestone dusts, in precipitating swine and dairy manure phosphorous (P) was determined in the laboratory. Both manures were sieved before being treated with...
Quality-assured measurements of animal building emissions: Particulate matter concentrations
Federally funded, multistate field studies were initiated in 2002 to measure emissions of particulate matter (PM) < 10 mu m (PM10) and total suspended particulate (TSP), ammonia, hydrogen sulfide,...
Protocol Development for Measurement of Trace Gases Associated with Manure Storage and Odor
Quantification of odorous compounds associated with livestock odors has been difficult in the past due to sensitivity limitations of available instrumentation. Advances in instrumentation have helped...

Efficacy of a Streptococcus Suis vaccine for the prevention of Streptococcus suis infection
Ambient odour testing of concentrated animal feeding operations using field and laboratory olfactometers
The Missouri Air Conservation Commission regulations include regulations that limit the amount of acceptable odor from confined animal feeding operations (CAFOs). The regulations concerning odor...
