Methane, Nitrous Oxide and Carbon-dioxide emissions from the liquid dairy manure
management chain in New Zealand as affected by acidification and separation: a pilot study.

Hypotheses
•Acidification of effluent will reduce ammonia (NH3) and methane (CH4) emissions during storage.
•Physical separation of effluent will further affect the degree of emissions reduction.

Summary•NH3 emissions reduced by 62% with acidification.
•CH4 emissions reduced with acidification by 72% for separated and 64% for non-separated effluent.
•Effects of acidification comparable with European studies but timelines may differ
• Lower organic matter content of effluent, relative to other studies, shows system has relatively little buffering capacity.
