MANURE ODOR CONTROL |
|
Manure odor control requires a high degree of management including
proper storage and treatment.
Odorous compounds are
interactive, not additive, in their effect. That is to say,
a combination of several odorous compounds may create a
unique odor. Odor from swine operations, is a complex
mixture of gases, vapors, and dust. Generally, the familiar
smell of ammonia and hydrogen sulfide gas (rotten egg odor)
is the result of bacteria digesting animal manure under
anaerobic (without oxygen) conditions This anaerobic process
can also release volatile fatty acids resulting in odor even
more offensive than either ammonia or hydrogen sulfide.
EC-4000
is a highly concentrated liquid, formulated to control odor and liquefy
sludge in waste management applications. When used as directed,
EC-4000 will eliminate
odors associated with hydrogen sulfide, ethylamines,
butylamines, mercaptans, ammonia, etc. In addition, EC-4000 creates
a poor breeding substrate for flies, insects and other
pests. EC-4000 is safe for the environment and is not harmful to animals,
plants and humans.
EC-4000 is safe for use in -
•
Close confinement animal
operations
•
Manure lagoons, holding tanks &
pits
•
Dairy lagoons & holding ponds
• Sanitary
landfills
• Poultry
operations
• Vet
clinics
• Composting
facilities
BENEFITS
• Can be
incorporated into most waste management systems with
minimum capital expenditures.
• Eliminates odor.
• Suppresses pathogenic bacteria.
• Reduces ammonia levels.
•
Reduces volume up to 40% in solid waste applications.
• Decomposes
insect & fly larvae.
APPLICATION DATA
HOG BARNS:
Dilute EC-4000 at a rate of 1:100 in water and spray walls,
floors, pens, pits, farrowing crates, etc. EC-4000 is
compatible with most disinfectants.
MANURE HOLDING
TANKS:
To lift and liquefy solid sludge
from the bottom of holding tanks, dilute EC-4000 at a rate of
1:100 in water and inject the diluted solution directly into the bottom of the
sludge layers. Repeat at three to 5 day intervals until
desired results are achieved. For continued sludge reduction
and odor control, add EC-4000 concentrate at a rate of 1 Litre / 250 Litres tank volume.
MANURE HOLDING PONDS &
LAGOONS:
Initial Application: Dilute at a rate of 1:50 in
water and blanket spray the entire surface area at 3 day
intervals until odor is under control.
Maintenance Applications:
Dilute
at a rate of 1:100 in water and blanket spray the entire
surface area at at seven to ten day intervals or as
required.
Typical
application rate: 1litre diluted solution / 250 square
meters.
Lagoon Inflow Applications:
Apply a one time “SHOCK DOSE” of 10 to 15 PPM at the inflow.
Wait 7 days and commence regular maintenance applications of
3 to 5 PPM as required.
Each treatment environment is site-specific
and operators may need to experiment with application rates
and dilution rates to ensure optimum efficacy. EcoChem can
provide advice on technical matters to ensure that odor
control and wastewater operations meet customer
expectations.
Floor
Raised Birds
To control
ammonia emissions from reused litter during the critical 2
or 3 weeks following the placement of a new flock, dilute
EC-4000 at a rate of 1:50 in water and spray the litter four to six days prior to placement of new
flock. Normal heating and
ventilation practices should be followed.
SAFETY
EC-4000 is
produced in accordance with NOSB (National Organic Standards
Board) guidelines. The materials used in the production
process are derived from naturally occurring and sustainable
sources and are consistent with organic principals and the
National List of Allowed Substances. EC-4000 does NOT contain
synthetic chemicals, animal components, animal byproducts,
manure or manure byproducts. EC-4000 is safe for the
environment and
is not harmful to animals, plants and humans.
COMPLIANCE
The
materials, used in the production of EC-4000 fully comply with
EPA Toxic Substance Control Act (TSCA) and the rules, orders
and regulations promulgated there under including:
a) Sections 4, 5, 6 & 7; Title 40 Chapter 1, 707.20 thru
707.75;
b) 40 CFR Sections 704.3. 710.2(e) and 720.3(c); and
c) Sections 5 and 13, reference 42FR64583
d)
Does not contain marine pollutants as defined in 49 CFR
171.8.
STORAGE
& HANDLING:
EC-4000 requires no special
handling. Store in a safe place away from direct sunlight. For storage, temperatures of 14 to 20 degrees
Celsius (55 to 65 degrees Fahrenheit) are ideal.
