Abstract:A pyrolysis/ashing process for poultry manure with the aim of recovering both the potential energy and the plant nutrients is proposed. Volatile compounds derived from the pyrolysis process were subsequently decomposed using a catalyst to produce light fuel gases, while the solid residues (char or ash) were applied to plant cultivation to examine their usefulness as fertilizers. During the poultry manure pyrolysis, the evolution of volatiles was found to occur at temperatures below 500℃ and the volatiles thus … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
