Development of a Site-Specific Odor Impact Distance Guideline for Swine Production Systems
March 1, 1999By Dr. Albert Heber
The determination of odor-based setbacks for swine facilities is an important issue for producers today. Sufficient setbacks prevent costly nuisance complaints and lawsuits, and excessive setbacks...

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...
Effect of a manure additive on the reduction of ammonia emission from large swine finishing buildings
January 1, 1999
The effect of Alliance, a manure additive, on air quality was tested in four commercial grow-finish swine buildings over a period of six months. The test was conducted in two treated and two control...
Nitrate leaching as affected by liquid swine manure and cover cropping in sandy soil of southwestern Ontario
January 1, 1999By B. R. Ball-Coelho
To assess the risk that liquid swine manure (LSM) application posed to groundwater quality and determine how to manage excess nitrates, LSM pre-plant injected at 75% (LSMlow) and > 100% (LSMhigh) of...
Evaluation of Nutrient Availability from Swine Manure
January 1, 1999By Douglas Beegle
To utilize swine manure nitrogen (N) to meet the needs of crops and protect water quality it is
critical that we can confidently estimate the availability of the N. While total nutrient content of...
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...
Removal of malodorous compounds from liquid swine manure by subsurface constructed wetlands in a greenhouse
January 1, 1999
Odour removal from liquid swine manure by subsurface flow constructed wetlands located in a greenhouse was quantified. The relationship between wetland treatments (planted vs. unplanted) and the...
