Reduction of Pollutant Load by Small Pond in a Rice Paddy Applied with Pig Manure Compost

ABSTRACT: Liquid pig manure (LPM) is widely used as a compost fertilizer for vegetable crops destined for human consumption. However, these wastes may contain parasites eggs, such as the nematode Ascaris suum, that pose serious health risks to humans. We attempted to determine the most appropriate technique for recovering A. suum eggs from LPM compost. Samples were collected from two waste sources during composting, including 23 samples containing LPM, sawdust, and wood shavings, and 14 samples of LPM alone-both in triplicate. Samples were analyzed using several different recovery methods. Recovery of eggs by the modified Bailenger method with adaptations was significantly more effective and recovered 57% more eggs than by the modified Bailenger method alone. Willis-Mollay method, modified Faust method, and the simple sedimentation technique only recovered 4.4%, 13.9%, and 26% of eggs, respectively, compared with the modified Bailenger method with adaptations, indicating that the adjustments made to the Bailenger method were key to improving the recovery of A. suum eggs from compost and LPM.

Insight Into

AbstractTo investigate the characteristics of humic acids (HAs) and the combined effects of HAs on heavy metals, three HAs derived from kitchen waste compost (KW), pig manure compost (PM), and green waste compost (GW) were exposed to Cd(II) and Zn(II). The elemental contents and functional groups of HAs were different due to different raw materials. Fulvic-, humic-like content C1, humic-like content C4, and two protein-like contents C2 and C3 were identified in three HAs by EEM-PARAFAC analysis. The effects of HAs on heavy metals were associated with the metal species and HA source. Our results reveal that titrating Cd(II) caused stronger fluorescence quenching compared to titrating Zn(II) for all HAs. C1 and C4 of KW-HAs and PM-HAs showed fluorescence quenching after Cd(II) was added, whereas negligible fluorescence quenching was found when Zn(II) was added. In addition, C1 and C4 in the GW-HAs did not show obvious fluorescence quenching regardless of whether Cd(II) or Zn(II) was added. C3 in all HAs caused significant fluorescence quenching, suggesting that C3 plays an important role affecting the mobility of heavy metals. Consequently, these results suggest that HAs from KW and PM have greater potential for Cd-contaminated soil remediation than those from GW.
