hog manure treatment - ATD Manure Treatment System

Clare Schlegel, President of the Canadian Pork Council, at the Banff Pork Seminar in January 2008 reviewed the economic situation of the pork industry in Canada. To summarize, he felt that in order to save the pork industry in Canada we will have to cast off current practices and adapt to a new business model. read more 中文

Overview

ATD, the University of British Columbia Chemical Engineering Department and Hipp Engineering Ltd. have developed a system for the management of hog manure that is cost-effective, efficient, environmentally friendly, and produces a saleable pellet fertilizer as a byproduct.

Benefits of the ATD Manure Treatment System include:

ATD: A Brand to Build On

The ATD Manure System will allow our clients to provide a healthier product to the market while providing outstanding stewardship of the land and environment. They will be able to push our brand's benefits forward to their buyers on the condition that it be carried forward to the consumers to command a better price.

The ATD Manure System improves air quality for both the pigs and the people who care for them by removing and treating the manure before it can go anaerobic.. This removes the stresses associated with ammonia, hydrogen sulfide and other odours that challenge lungs.

The ATD Manure System removes environmental concerns for the potential pollution of water and land by eliminating lagoons and liquid manure disposal activities. Dry, storable pelleted fertilizer allows for more accurate crop nutrition and nutrient balance.

The ATD Manure System removes environmental concerns for the generation of green house gases. The elimination of liquid manure disposal and long term anaerobic storage ensures that operations emit an absolute minimum of these gases.

The ATD Manure System conserves one of our greatest natural resources - clean water. By eliminating flushing and recycling the available water we can reduce input volumes by over 50%.

Reduce Manure Treatment Costs

ATD's patent pending hog manure management system can save a new farm an estimated $194,000 per year on hog manure treatment costs based on an 11,000 place grow to finish hog operation ¹. Larger hog farms will reap greater benefits, providing small hog farms the economic impetus for production scale increases.

Double Hog Production

By increasing the popluation of your operation from 11,000 to 20,000 places, you will gain a larger return on investment, offsetting the costs of the ATD system. The ATD system will produce more pellets that can be sold off-site to increase cash flow. Your farm can continue to operate on the existing land base and use the remaining fertilizer for crop production.

Although greenhouse gas emissions will be drastically reduced, the added revenue from fertilizer sales alone will help you achieve your bottom line even without greenhouse gas reduction credits.

Reduce Manure Odours

Manure odours are substantially reduced because the system eliminates the need for lagoons and liquid manure field applications, the primary odour sources of current manure management practices. The organic, dry pellet fertilizer, a byproduct of ATD manure treatment, has virtually no odour when applied to the land.

Make Money from Manure

The ATD Manure Treatment System produces a consistent analysis dry pellet fertilizer that can add profits to your hog farm production. Increases in return per market pig are possible for new installations that don’t need a lagoon and are prepared to sell all of the fertilizer produced by the treatment process.

Help the Environment

With the ATD Manure Treatment System, all manure nutrients are captured as a byproduct: a dry pellet fertilizer, with no harmful losses to the environment. Using the dry pelletized fertilizer results in a dramatic reduction in leaching to surface and ground water.

Because the ATD system eliminates lagoons and liquid manure applications to land, greenhouse gases are virtually eliminated: reduced by 95%.
