Effectiveness of Three Manure Pit Additives

WShannon
Engineering
October 19, 2020

Evaluation of three manure pit additives on their effectiveness in reducing manure strength and solids, odour threshold and gas concentrations above the manure surface, and maintaining micronutrient and nutrient content was completed. The additives investigated were Pit Boss, American BioCatalysts and Westbridge (H4-5O2). The additives were unable to improve all aspects of the manure, but provided some benefits with a wide variability.
