Transcript of Nutrient Inventory and Storage and Handling (Planner Training) John W. Worley.
- Slide 1
- Nutrient Inventory and Storage and Handling (Planner Training) John W. Worley
- Slide 2
- Times Have Changed!
- Slide 3
- Or Have They? George Washingtons Compost Facility
- Slide 4
- u Balance Imports with Exports Goal
- Slide 5
- ARE INPUTS & OUTPUTS IN BALANCE? Water In 1 gal. Water Out Farm Pond 1 gal.
- Slide 6
- ARE INPUTS & OUTPUTS IN BALANCE? Water In 2 gal. 1 gal. Water Out Farm Pond
- Slide 7
- ARE INPUTS & OUTPUTS IN BALANCE? Water In 2 gal. 1 gal. Water Out Farm Pond
- Slide 8
- ARE INPUTS & OUTPUTS IN BALANCE? Water Out Water In 2 gal. Farm Pond 1 gal.
- Slide 9
- Plugging the Leaks Temporary Solution to Imbalance Water Out Water In 2 gal. Farm Pond 1 gal. Sand Bags
- Slide 10
- u More closely balance feed nutrients to animal needs Nitrogen comes from feed protein Phosphorus comes from ingredients + mineral supplements Phytate phosphorus is unavailable to animals, but is excreted with manure u Reduce feed wastage Pelleted Feeds Wet-Dry feeders Properly adjust feeders u Recycle Use manure nutrients to produce feed on the farm Strategies to Reduce Waste
- Slide 11
- u Feed u Animals u Commercial Fertilizer u Manure from other farms u Legumes N, P, K Imports
- Slide 12
- u Animals u Animal Products (Milk) u Manure shipped off farm u Storage Losses N, P, K Exports
- Slide 13
- u Slurry Systems Storage Systems u Liquid Systems (Lagoons)
- Slide 14
- u Dry Systems Storage Systems
- Slide 15
- u Combination Systems (Solids Separators) Storage Systems
- Slide 16
- u Lagoons Reduce Waste Stream (Volatilize Organic Matter) Reduce Land Application Area (Vol. Nitrogen) Reduce Odor Emissions u Slurry Storage Maximize Nutrient Utilization Minimize Storage Volume (minimize water added) Goals
- Slide 17
- u Dry Systems Make manure more transportable Reduce odors u Solids Separators Reduce size requirements for liquid storage and treatment Allow transport of some of waste to remote sites or off farm Goals
- Slide 18
- Disadvantages u Lagoons Large Volume in storage structure Reduces N/P ratio Sludge must be periodically removed u Slurry Storage Requires more acres for application (based on N) Odors are greater (if not covered)
- Slide 19
- Disadvantages u Dry Systems Often more manual labor required Swine: Non-homogeneous u Solids Separators Requires more management Requires two types of equipment Cost of construction and operation
- Slide 20
- u Lagoon u Slurry Storage Earthen Basin Design
- Slide 21
- u Lagoon Volatilizes nitrogen Phosphorus settles in sludge layer 90-95% of phosphorus must eventually be accounted for if P based NMP u Slurry Storage Less nitrogen volatilized Phosphorus must be accounted for each year u Dry Systems Can be less flexible concerning time of application Effects on Nutrient Management
- Slide 22
- % of Original Nitrogen Available after Storage
- Slide 23
- u Description of Overall System Number and type of buildings Flush, Pull-plug, etc For partial confinement - % Time in confinement CNMP Should Include:
- Slide 24
- u Lagoon Design Information (as available) When built, Who designed it Total Capacity (ft 3 ) Pumpable (Storage) Capacity (ft 3 ) Surface Water Diversion u Operating Information Maximum Fill Level Pump-down level CNMP Should Include:
- Slide 25
- Pumpable Volume Rise Run Depth Stop-Pumping Level Max-Fill Level Total Volume Inside Slope = Run/Rise Lagoon Design Info:
- Slide 26
- u For Slurry Storage Design Storage Time Capacity (# of animals, etc.) u Capacity of Dry storage if applicable u Closure Plan for Liquid or Slurry Storage Structures u Provision for Record Keeping (Monthly Inspection Checklist) CNMP Should Include:
- Slide 27
- u Standard Book Value Estimates u Imports minus Exports u Manure analysis and application records Estimation of Nutrients in Manure
- Slide 28
- u Standard Estimates (lb / year / animal, etc) Table 1, Table 3 a,b,c Table 4 (Storage Losses), Table 5 (sludge) Estimation of Nutrients in Manure
- Slide 29
- Slide 30
- Slide 31
- Slide 32
- Slide 33
- u Imports minus exports Table 2 a,b,c, Table 7 Table 4 (Storage Losses), Table 5 (sludge) Estimation of Nutrients in Manure
- Slide 34
- Slide 35
- Slide 36
- Slide 37
- Slide 38
- u Manure analysis and application records Table 6 a,b Estimation of Nutrients in Manure
- Slide 39
- Slide 40
- Slide 41
- u Software has been developed to aid in development of CNMP including the estimation of nutrient inventories see AWARE web site for download Summary (Nutrient Inventory)
- Slide 42
- Slide 43
- Slide 44
- Slide 45
- u Lagoons Reduce nitrogen, organic matter, and odors if properly managed Must be started and operated according to the design to maintain lagoon health v Sludge must be removed periodically v Do not empty below treatment level Summary
- Slide 46
- u Slurry Storage Maximizes nutrient retention More balanced with plant needs Should be cleaned out at least annually Encourage cover to reduce odors u Proper management including regular inspections and record keeping are essential Summary
- Slide 47
- u Overall Farm Nutrient Balance Nutrients brought onto farm in feed, fertilizer, animals, legumes Exported in animals and animal products, manure, losses Summary
- Slide 48
- u 3 methods of estimating inventory Standard values (lb/animal/day; lb/lb of animal/year; etc.) - - simple to use, but tend to be out of date and values vary greatly by farm. Leaner animals produce more N, less P Inputs - Outputs - - more complicated, but more accurate if records available Nutrient analysis and Records of Quantities Pumped - - most accurate if adequate records are available v (Does not account for sludge storage unless sludge is sampled or agitation is used before sampling) Summary
- Slide 49
- u All methods except analysis and records must estimate storage losses u Storage losses can vary greatly with management differences. Generally represent the greatest difference in manure nutrient content between farms, especially N u Your system may be somewhere between systems described in published lists Summary
