“…71 Adding more than 10% of the dry weight (more than 4% of the wet weight) of calcium super phosphorus to pig manure composting reduces NH 3 , CO 2 , CH 4 , and N 2 O emissions and improves carbon and nitrogen storage, according to Xie and Tran. 72 Li and Wang 73 and Mei and Li 58 reported that when calcium superphosphate was added to chicken dung NH 3 emissions dropped 31.1% compared to the control. Few studies have examined carbon, nitrogen, and humic material changes during organic−inorganic co-composting, despite the necessity of using fertilizers to prevent nitrogen loss.…”

Agriculture waste has increased annually due to the global food demand and intensive animal production. Preventing environmental degradation requires fast and effective agricultural waste treatment. Aerobic digestion or composting uses agricultural wastes to create a stabilized and sterilized organic fertilizer and reduces chemical fertilizer input. Indeed, conventional composting technology requires a large surface area, a long fermentation period, significant malodorous emissions, inferior product quality, and little demand for poor end results. Conventional composting loses a lot of organic nitrogen and carbon. Thus, this comprehensive research examined sustainable and adaptable methods for improving agricultural waste composting efficiency. This review summarizes composting processes and examines how compost additives affect organic solid waste composting and product quality. Our findings indicate that additives have an impact on the composting process by influencing variables including temperature, pH, and moisture. Compost additive amendment could dramatically reduce gas emissions and mineral ion mobility. Composting additives can (1) improve the physicochemical composition of the compost mixture, (2) accelerate organic material disintegration and increase microbial activity, (3) reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) and ammonia (NH 3 ) emissions to reduce nitrogen (N) losses, and (4) retain compost nutrients to increase soil nutrient content, maturity, and phytotoxicity. This essay concluded with a brief summary of compost maturity, which is essential before using it as an organic fertilizer. This work will add to agricultural waste composting technology literature. To increase the sustainability of agricultural waste resource utilization, composting strategies must be locally optimized and involve the created amendments in a circular economy.

“…Our understanding of denitrification/NH 3 volatilization mechanisms and nutrient transformation in water–sediment systems is limited. It is generally assumed that denitrification and NH 3 volatilization occur in the sediment, where the hydrolyzed NH 4 + ion can be dissolved in the overlying water and soil/sediment of the paddy, and further transformed into NH 3 gas flow, 25 and overlying water NO 3 − is transported to the aquifer area, that contains bacteria and reactive electron donors through advection and diffusion 26 (Fig. 1(a)).…”

Regulation of denitrification/ammonia volatilization by periphyton in paddy fields and its promise in rice yield promotion

et al. 2023

BACKGROUND Nitrogen (N) is the most limiting nutrient in rice production. N loss via denitrification and ammonia (NH3) volatilization decreases N utilization efficiency. The effect of periphyton (a widespread soil surface microbial aggregate in paddy soil) on N‐cycling processes and rice growth in paddy soils remain unclear. The purpose of this study was to reveal the interactions of periphyton with the overlying water and sediment in paddy soils on denitrification/NH3 emissions and rice yield by combining pot experiments and path analysis modeling. RESULTS The sediment exerted significant direct and positive effects on denitrification. The periphyton both directly and indirectly enhanced denitrification, mainly by regulating the ammonium (NH4+)‐N content in the sediment. The total contribution of periphyton to denitrification was stronger than that of the overlying water but smaller than that of the sediment. The pH in the overlying water and the NH4+‐N content in the sediment had a strong positive effect on NH3 volatilization. Although the periphyton biomass and chlorophyll a directly prohibited NH3 emissions, this was counterbalanced by the indirect stimulation effects of the periphyton due to its positive alteration of the pH. Moreover, periphyton facilitated rice yield by 10.2% by releasing N. CONCLUSION Although the periphyton may have driven N loss by regulating the NH4+‐N content in the sediment and the pH in the overlying water, our study also found that the periphyton was considered a temporary N sink and provided a sustained release of N for rice, thus increasing the rice yield. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.

“…The management of nitrogen fertilizers is one of most complex, resulting from problems in efficiency of N use, in which the nitrogen sources available in Brazil, urea and ammonium sulfate, are the most used in corn cultivation [9]. Urea [CO(NH2)2] has been the source of N most used by corn producers in Brazil, corresponding to 60% of nitrogen fertilizers [10], mainly due to lower cost of fertilizer and higher percentage of N (± 45%), however, more subject to losses due to ammonia volatilization [11], since with the hydrolysis of urea through the urease enzyme found in soil, the NH2 radical absorbs electrons from H+ from the medium converting into ammonium (NH4 + ), with a 2 reduction in pH around the urea granule, favoring the oxidation of NH4 + into ammonia (NH3), which is likely to volatize [12].…”

The aims of study was to evaluate the effects of rates, sources and timing of nitrogen application under cover of transgenic corn yield cultivated in Amazon Biome. The experiments were conducted in Parauapebas city, State of Pará, Brazil, in two years (2016/2017 and 2017/2018). The experimental design was randomized blocks, in a 5x2x2 factorial scheme, consisting of five rates of N (0; 45; 90; 135; and 180 kg ha-1), two nitrogen sources (urea and ammonium sulfate) and two application times of N (phenological stages V4 and V8), with four replications. The factor N rates promoted adjustment of linear equation (leaf area index, mass of thousand grains, and yield) and quadratic equation (dry mass of leaf index). Nitrogen fertilization promoted significant increases in mass of thousand grains and yield, obtaining the best results with 180 kg ha-1 of N applied at V4 phenological stage. Based on results obtained in two years of corn cultivated under conditions of Amazon Biome, the application of N at V4 phenological stage at rates of 121 to 131.39 kg ha-1 of N showed the best results for vegetative growth, while 180 kg ha-1 of N, regardless of source used, urea or ammonium sulfate, promoted greater grain weight and greater yield.
