“…For materials of bovine origin (cattle dung in Figure 2a and slurry in Figure 2b), the classes of molecules were essentially the same, with the exception of a significant proportion of ketone present in the slurry, which was absent in the cattle dung. The main molecular classes of bovine fecal matter are in agreement with the classes found in the literature, with phenols, alcohol, aromatic compounds, indoles, halogenated compounds, hydrocarbons and ketones found in [14,15,17,26], and more broadly in pig effluent studies [2,41]. The same molecular families have been found for chicken fecal matter (Figure 2c), which is consistent with the literature presented by Sánchez-Monedero et al (2019) [42] and Dunlop et al (2016) [8].…”

“…Effluent samples collected in the field can be kept at 4 • C or −20 • C until further analysis. The feasibility of such offline analyses and comparisons between a fresh or frozen sample have been described in different studies [15][16][17][18]. Offline laboratory analyses present the advantage of being more reproducible, less time consuming, and automatized, offering the possibility of analyzing a considerably higher number of samples.…”

Livestock is an important source of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that can cause odor nuisance and pollution. The main sources of these VOCs in livestock are effluents and their management system. In this study, the applicability of headspace-solid phase microextraction coupled with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (HS-SPME-GC-MS) for VOC characterization in effluent samples in both laboratory and field tests was evaluated. In the laboratory test, the VOC profile of different farm effluents (cattle dung, slurry and chicken droppings) was measured as well as the influence of the presence of litter material on their release. In the field test, a comparison was made between the VOC profile of two manure pits that had undergone treatment or not to assist in effluent management. The results presented here show that the HS-SPME-GC-MS technique allows one to quantify a wide spectrum of VOCs responsible for olfactory nuisances (177 and 73 VOCs in total for the laboratory and field tests, respectively) in a simple, fast, and economic way. This technique could be further developed to monitor olfactory nuisance markers and predict the evolution of different effluent materials.

Odors are considered as one of the most important environmental problems that may adversely influence the quality of life of people affected by their interaction. Due to the multiple sources of emissions, combined with the abundance of chemical compounds classified odor nuisance, new methods of reducing odor emissions are sought while maintaining environmental neutrality. One potential option is to use biochar, a sustainable, carbonized solid product resulting from the thermo-chemical treatment of biomass and/or organic waste. Due to its valuable properties (in particular, high specific surface area, and microporous structure), this material can be used for sorption purposes. Although the issue of using biochar to remove odor emissions is relatively new, in recent years new research directions have been undertaken to determine the sorption efficiency of biochar not only as a direct adsorbent but also in alternative applications. Therefore, this paper aimed to review the most important directions of biochar management in the removal of odor-causing compounds and to highlight the current advances undertaken in this direction. It was distinguished that biochar can enhance odor mitigation by being an additive to compost, a biofiltration medium, a direct adsorbent, a soil additive, a substrate for the production of the odor-absorbing product, a dietary supplement, and a biocover. However, further research is needed to strengthen the range of greater use of biochar in practice.

“…This study also showed that applying biochar as a cover on top of manure instead of incorporating biochar within manure was more effective in reducing NH3 [27]. Kaikiti et al (2020) reported up to a 60% reduction of total VOCs, a 90% reduction of NH3, a 90% reduction of H2S, and a 40% reduction of CH4 when applied 10% by weight of biochar made from cattle waste (pH: 10.43) [28].…”
