Abstract
This study aimed to clarify the characteristics of composting reaction for dairy cattle manure mixed with biochar (rice husk biochar, bamboo biochar, and granular wood) commercially available in Japan. Composting of dairy cattle manure mixed with 10 % biochar (wet weight basis) was performed for 35 days using a lab-scale composting device to analyze compost temperature, microbial activity, and N2O, CH4, and NH3 gas emissions. The results showed that rice husk biochar reduced NH3 emissions by 59.8 % compared to the control, while bamboo charcoal only reduced NH3 emissions by 6.8 %. N2O and CH4 emissions were reduced by all biochar types, with bamboo charcoal showing the highest suppression among them. On the other hand, the biochar treatments showed the same tendency as the control treatment regarding the increase in the maximum temperature in the initial composting stage and the persis- tence of a high-temperature period above 55°C. In addition, no significant differences in cumulative CO2 emissions or organic matter decomposition rates, representing microbial activity, were observed between the biochar treatments and the control. The results indicate that mixing biochar does not affect the composting process. Although the biochar used in the study did not affect the promotion of composting of dairy cattle manure, some types of biochar were effec-tive materials in reducing NH3, N2O, and CH4 emissions.
