This study was carried out to investigate the effect of enzyme complex on odor emission from swine slurry and the process of making swine liquid manure. Ammonia and hydrogen sulfide concentrations were significantly decreased by using the enzyme complex of liter per ton level of liquid swine slurry in the manure storage tank according to the time. Characteristics of liquid swine slurry were affected by the enzyme complex, total nitrogen and ammonia nitrogen contents were reduced compare with control. Ammonia and hydrogen sulfide concentrations in the finishing pig building and offensive odor compound on the boundary line of swine farm were significantly decreased by spraying in swine finishing building. In conclusion, the results obtained from this study suggest that using the enzyme complex of liter per ton level of liquid swine slurry for making liquid swine manure may improve the quality of swine liquid fertilizer and reduce odor emission. Also farm scale enzyme complex treatment may improve air quality in finishing pig building and deduce offensive odor compound of swine farm.

시간이 지날수록 경제성장을 이룰수록 환경에 대한 관심은 높아지면서 규제 또한 강화되고 있는 상황이다. 축산물 소비자들 또한 친환경축산물을 선호하는 경향도 눈에 띈다. 이런 상황에 축산농가에서 발생하는 분뇨와 사체가 환경오염의 원인으로 지목되기도 하고 악취로 민원이 발생하는 억울한 일들이 생겨나고 있다. 가축분뇨와 사체는 우수한 비료자원으로 활용이 가능하다. 자원화로 축산농가에서는 부수익을 올리고 경종농가나 과수농가에서는 고품질 비료사용이 가능하다. (주)YMI(대표이사 문성호) 축산농가의 이런 애로사항을 해결하고자 환경을 생각하고 이웃과 어울리는 축산업을 위해 노력하고 있다. 이번호에는 (주)YMI를 소개코자 한다.

최근 우리나라도 전업축산농가의 양계사육 규모가 확대되면서 이에 수반되는 양계장 주변의 악취, 수질 오염 등의 환경문제가 심각하게 대두되고 있다. 축산경영의 건전한 발전을 위해서도 이 문제의 해결은 시급한 과제이며 특히 경영주의 환경의식과 의지가 문제해결의 시발점임을 인식해야 한다. 물론 양계장에서 환경친화적으로 계분을 처리한다는 것은 그리 용이한 일은 아니다. 특히 산란계 사육농가의 계분은 끈적끈적한 오물감과 냄새로 취급하기가 쉽지 않다. 그 원인은 수분 함유량이 높고 역분해성 유기물(분해 용이한 유기물)이 부패되면서 악취와 해충을 발생시키기 때문이다. 현재 계분처리방법은 여러 가지가 있으나 첫째, 지구환경에 친화적인 처리방법으로는 유기성 폐기물인 계분의 재활용에 있다고 생각한다. 현재와 같이 지구환경의 밸런스가 망가지는 상황은 사람들이 다량의 소비만 일삼고 환경 리싸이클에 관심이 덜한데 있다고 본다. 자원 순환형 사회에서 계분의 퇴비화로 가축분뇨를 유통 · 활용하는 일은 유기성 자원의 리사이클에 공헌하는 의미가 크다고 본다. 또한 우리나라의 축산업이 환경 보전형 농업을 실현하는데 보탬이 되는 양질의 퇴비를 대량 생산하여 경작농가에 공급, 유기질 농산물 생산에 많이 기여하길 바란다.

Odor management is significantly concerned with sustainable livestock production because odor nuisance is a primary cause for complaint to neighbors. This study was conducted to measure the concentration of odorous compounds, odor intensity, and odor offensiveness at unit process in animal waste treatment facility combined composting and methane fermentation process by an instrumental analysis and direct olfactory method. Ammonia, sulfur-containing compounds, and volatile fatty acid were analyzed at each process units and boundary area in summer and winter, respectively. Higher concentration of odorants occurred in the summer than in the winter due to high ambient temperature. The maximum concentration of odorants was detected in composting pile when mixed manure was being turned followed by inlet, curing, outlet, and screen & packing process. Highest concentration of detected odorous compounds was ammonia ranging from 3.4 to 224.7 ppm. Among the sulfur-containing compounds measured, hydrogen sulfide was a maximum level of 2.3 ppm and most of them exceeded reported odor detection thresholds. Acetic acid was the largest proportion of VFA generated, reaching a maximum of 51 to 89%, followed by propionic and butyric acid at 1.9 to 35% and 1.8 to 15%, respectively. Malodor assessment by a human panel appeared a similar tendency in instrumental analysis data. Odor quotient for predicting major odor-causing compounds was calculated by dividing concentrations measured in process units by odor detection thresholds. In the composting process, hydrogen sulfide, ammonia, dimethyl sulfide, and methyl mercaptan were deeply associated with odor-causing compounds, while the major malodor compounds in the inlet process were methyl mercaptan, hydrogen sulfide, and butyric acid.

악취는 냄새를 유발하는 기체상 물질이 사람의 후각을 자극하여 불쾌감이나 혐오감을 주는 상태를 말한다. 악취물질은 정유공장, 화학공장, 하수처리장, 분뇨 및 축산 폐수처리장, 매립장 등의 다양한 발생원이 있으며, 여러가지 복합된 화합물이 원인이 되어 악취를 유발한다. 단위 물질로서 황화수소(H$_2$S)는 계란 썩는 냄새, 메르캅탄(mercaptan)류는 야채 썩는 냄새, 아민류는 생선냄새 등의 특이한 냄새를 유발하며, 최저 감지값은 물질별로 상당한 차이를 나타내고 있다(이광묵, 1993).(중략)

Animals produce important co-products such as meat, milk, and egg. Higher consumption and urbanization asked for more animal products and the demand was so strong that lager livestocks are now being raised densely in small farm. Large production of excreta and maldor is an inevitable consequence of condensed breeding. If this malodor couldn't be controlled, it could be chief obstacle to development of both livestock industry and environment of future. Major odor produced from livestock environments could be subdivided into four major sections: volatile fatty acids, ammonia and volatile amine, indole and phenols, and sulfur compounds. More than half of nitrogen excreted urea, so low protein feeding, synthetic amino acid feeding and supplementing with digestive enzyme, microbial agents and/or probiotics are methods for reducing nitrogen excretion. A lot of studies about feeding and probiotics, co-feed have been researched to improve environment and/or productivity in livestock industry.

The odor problem in the livestock is increasing by 7% annually. Most importantly, the livestock odor problem in swinery accounts for the maximum ratio (54%). In this study, we reviewed the possibility of deodorizing swinery using an odor reduction device that can be used with the water washing system. First, the study confirmed that the solubility of odor gas, which was hydrogen sulfide, was very low regardless of the contact time with solvent, but the solubility of methyl mercaptan was found to increase along with the increase in time. The solubility of other odor gases, such as dimethyl sulfide, dimethyl disulfide and ammonia, was considerably high. Consequently, it is considered that if the odor reduction device for the water washing system deodorization is used in a swinery, the time during which the exhaust gas is in contact with usable water must be extended, or solvent quantity must be expanded. However, it is predicted that although hydrogen sulfide is easily generated in the anaerobic condition, it is difficult to expect high odor reduction efficiency because this gas has low solubility in water, especially in case it is used in the deodorization of the water washing system. The result of the solubility experiment using the bench-scale device practically manufactured represented the higher odor reduction ratio than expected. This result was possible because the removal efficiency of dust particles could be reached up to 93%. Therefore, it is judged that also the odor gas absorbed on dust particles could be removed by removal of dust. Consequently, it is expected that the higher order reduction ratio will be possible by structural improvement for increasing contact with water and odor gas.

A natural deodorizing agent (NDA) was made using pine cone byproduct, and its effects on malodor emission and composting were analyzed in this study. NDA was manufactured by mixing pine cone byproduct with three species of microorganisms and water containing mineral nutrients and molasses, and then by incubating for 48 hours at $30^{\circ}C$. Lab scale experiments were done with three treatment groups, T1 (control, sawdust treatment), T2 (microorganisms and sawdust treatment group), and T3 (NDA and sawdust treatment group). During composting, temperatures reached over $55^{\circ}C$, a minimum temperature for the inactivation of pathogenic microorganisms. No differences were found in physicochemical composition of compost among treatments. However, it was observed that over usage of NDA could obstruct temperature increase, since the biodegradation rate of organic matter of NDA was relatively low, Nitrogen loss due to ammonia gas emission, which normally happens during composting, was reduced by using NDA, and hence the nitrogen level of final compost was higher in T3 than in others. During experiment, it was found that ammonia gas emission was entirely lasted through compositing duration, but the $CH_3SH$ and $H_2S$ gases were produced only at early stage of composting. The ammonia concentration trapped in $H_2SO_4$ solution during 31 days of composting in T1, T2 and T3 was 12,660mg/L, 11,598mg/L and 7,367mg/L, respectively, showing distinguishable reduction of ammonia gas emission in T3. The emissions of $CH_3SH$ and $H_2S$ gases were also remarkably reduced in T3. Based on these obtained results, usage of the deodorizing agent made with pine cone byproduct could reduce the emission of malodor during composting, without any deterioration of compost quality.
