Effect of chemical amendments to dairy soiled water and time between application and rainfall on phosphorus and sediment losses in runoff
(2012)Dairy soiled water (DSW) is a dilute, low nutrient effluent produced on Irish dairy farms through the regular washing down of milking parlours and holding areas. In Ireland, there is no closed period for the land application ... -
Effect of chemical amendments to dairy soiled water and time between application and rainfall on phosphorus and sediment losses in runoff
(Elsevier, 2012-05-18)Dairy soiled water (DSW) is a dilute, low nutrient effluent produced on Irish dairy farms through the regular washing down of milking parlours and holding areas. In Ireland, there is no closed period for the land application ... -
Evaluation of amendments to control phosphorus losses in runoff from dairy soiled water.
(Springer, 2011-12-01)Amendments with the potential to reduce phosphorus (P) losses from agricultural grassland arising from the land application of dairy-soiled water (DSW) were investigated. Optimal application rates were studied, and associated ... -
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 ... -
Impact of chemical amendment of dairy cattle slurry on phosphorus, suspended sediment and metal loss to runoff from a grassland soil
(2011)Emerging remediation technologies such as chemical amendment of dairy cattle slurry have the potential to reduce phosphorus (P) solubility and consequently reduce P losses arising from land application of dairy cattle ... -
The impact of chemically amended pig slurry on surface runoff, leachate and greenhouse gasses.
(2013-08-27)In Ireland, the pig industry is concentrated in a small number of counties. Pig farms typically have a high stocking rate. Therefore, the disposal of slurry in a cost-effective and environmentally-responsible way is a ... -
Impacts of zeolite, alum and polyaluminium chloride amendments mixed with agricultural wastes on soil column leachate, and CO2 and CH4 emissions.
(Elsevier, 2017-11-02)This study aimed to quantify leaching losses of nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and carbon (C), as well as carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4) emissions from stored slurry and from packed soil columns surface applied with ... -
Mitigation of ammonia and greenhouse gas emissions from stored cattle slurry using acidifiers and chemical amendments
(Elsevier, 2019-07-28)Cattle and cow slurry storage is a significant source of agricultural greenhouse gas (GHG) and ammonia (NH3) emissions. While acidification has been demonstrated to significantly reduce these emissions, a knowledge gap ...
