At Different Moisture Contents. Investigation Of Composting Process Control Strategies. The result is a product which not only does not stink, but enhances rather than destroys soil life. Liquid manure can be one of your most valuable resources to enhance soil fertility or it can be one of your biggest problems. When stored under anaerobic conditions it gives off harmful gases such as ammonia, methane, and hydrogen sulphide.

The composter is an in-vessel system, with forced aeration and mechanical turning. The objective of this project was to develop a mixture of organic compost suitable for production of fresh vegetable produce grown in greenhouse and in outdoor raised beds during the summer season. Secondary intent was to enrich the soil for production of forage for beef cattle. This would allow the Spectacle Lake Pork Farm Ltd. hog farming operation to double their production without creating an additional strain on the environment. It uses freeze-crystallization to precipitate contaminants and kill pathogens, and has been shown to outperform conventional tertiary treatment methods for municipal effluent.
