On-farm treatment of dairy soiled water using aerobic woodchip filters
(Elsevier, 2011)
Dairy soiled water (DSW) is produced on dairy farms through the washing-down of milking parlours and holding areas, and is generally applied to land. However, there is a risk of nutrient loss to surface and ground waters ...
Evaluation of chemical amendments to control phosphorus losses from dairy slurry
(Wiley, 2011)
Land application of dairy slurry can result in incidental losses of phosphorus (P) to runoff in addition to increased loss of P from soil as a result of a buildup in soil test P (STP). An agitator test was used to identify ...
Different depth sand filters for laboratory treatment of synthetic wastewater with concentrations close to measured septic tank effluent
(2011)
The objective of this study was to apply hydraulic and chemical oxygen demand (COD) loading rates at the upper limits of the design criteria for buried sand filters to test the sand filter depth design criteria. Over a ...
Evaluation of chemical amendments to control phosphorus losses from dairy slurry.
(Soil Use and Management, 2011-06-01)
The aim of this paper is to identify chemicals with the potential to reduce P losses from agricultural grassland arising from the land application of dairy cattle slurry. It also aims to identify optimal application rates ...
