Pacific Northwest Forest and Range Experiment Station, Portland, Oregon. Twelve different nitrogen (N) fertilizer treatments were tested on potted western hemlock (Tsuga heterophylla (Raf. ) Sarg.) seedlings. Fertilizers affected soil N and pH, and growth and foliar chemical com position of seedlings. Ura plus N-Serve and sulfur-coated urea appear more promising for promoting growth than other fertilizers tested. Results, however, do not explain reported variability in response of hemlock stands to N fertilization. Keywords: Nitrogen fertilizer response, seedling growth, western hemlock, Tsuga heterophylla. RESEARCH SUMMARY Research Paper PNW-267 1980 The following fertilization treatments were applied in the spring to potted, 4-year-old western hemlock (Tsuga heterophylla (Raf. -

Appendix III-2 MATES V Final Report Appendix III Monitoring and Laboratory Analysis Protocol III.1. INTRODUCTION III.1.1 Background In 1986, the South Coast Air Quality Management District (South Coast AQMD) performed a study of ambient air toxics impacts in the South Coast Air Basin. Although this study involved only limited measurements, it was an important beginning of the Multiple Air Toxics Exposure Study (MATES). In 1998, the South Coast AQMD conducted a follow up to that initial study, but included an intensive ambient air toxics monitoring program, which became MATES II. The objective of MATES II was to establish a baseline of existing air toxics ambient emissions, exposure and risk level data and an assessment of model accuracy. Sampling for MATES II was performed over a one-year period at ten sites throughout the South Coast Air Basin (Basin). The MATES II Final Report was approved by the South Coast AQMD Board in March 2000. As a follow up study to MATES II, MATES III was conducted from April 2004 through March 2006. The initial scope of the study was for one year, however, sampling continued for a second year due to concerns of the impact of heavy rains on data collected during the first year. The MATES III Final Report was published in September 2008. -
Environmental and Economic Sustainability of Swine Wastewater Treatments Using Ammonia Stripping and Anaerobic Digestion: a Short Review
sustainability Review Environmental and Economic Sustainability of Swine Wastewater Treatments Using Ammonia Stripping and Anaerobic Digestion: A Short Review Adele Folino 1, Demetrio Antonio Zema 1,* and Paolo S. Calabrò 2 1 Department Agraria, Mediterranea University of Reggio Calabria, Località Feo di Vito, I-89122 Reggio Calabria, Italy; [email protected] 2 Department Diceam, Mediterranea University of Reggio Calabria, Via Graziella, Località Feo di Vito, I-89124 Reggio Calabria, Italy; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 30 April 2020; Accepted: 16 June 2020; Published: 18 June 2020 Abstract: One of the most promising systems to treat swine wastewater is air stripping. This system simultaneously recovers nitrogen salts, to be used as fertiliser, and reduces the organic pollutant load in the effluents of swine breeding farms. Several reviews have discussed the air stripping as a treatment for many types of industrial wastewater or nitrogen-rich digestate (the liquid effluent derived from the anaerobic digestion plants) for the stripping/recovery of nutrients. However, reviews about the use of air stripping as treatment for raw or anaerobically digested swine wastewater are not available in literature. To fill this gap, this study: (i) Summarises the experiences of air stripping for recovery of ammonium salts from both raw and digested swine wastewater; and (ii) compares air stripping efficiency under different operational conditions. Moreover, combined systems including air stripping (such as struvite crystallisation, chemical precipitation, microwave radiation) have been compared. These comparisons have shown that air stripping of raw and digested swine wastewater fits well the concept of bio-refinery, because this system allows the sustainable management of the piggery effluent by extracting value-added compounds, by-products, and/or energy from wastewater. -
