6 Chemical ph balance NH3 NH4+ ph value deciding NH3 or NH4+ (ammonia ammonium).

7 Chemical ph balance NH3 NH4+ ph level decides level of emission (ammoniak ammonium).

8 Suphur acid Enviromental sustainable H 2 SO 4 (sulphur acid) Hydrogen - Sulphur - oxygen = sustainable Water soluble = SO 4 (sulphur sulfate) + 2 x H+ (positive hydrogen ion lowers ph) Important processes when adding sulphur acid to slurry: NH 3 (ammonia) + H + = NH 4+ (ammonium) NH 3 = gas - may evaporate NH 4+ = salt - does not evaporate) NA + CHO 3 (bicarbonat) + H + = NA + + CO 2 + H 2 O (salt + carbon dioxide + water) (CO 2 = pressure = skum)

29 Yield increase dilemma explanation: Hypothesis to explain results: Poor utilisation of conventional slurry Acidification Accelerates decomposition of organic fixed N ph varriation in rootzone releases fixed nutrients from soil Increased amount of ammonium nitrogen and sulfate accelerates plant uptake of nutrients Eliminating ammonia in slurry creates a more microclimate friendly slurry appliction and accelerate decomposition of organic fixed nutrients Sulphur norm generally to low Foaming of slurry increases slurry volume and nutrients in slurry is spread on larger area Acidification has preventive effect on manganese deficiency

37 Reduction of odour Emission of odour during application of slurry depends on: Slurry type (animal, feeding, water use, storage ) Slurry treatment (acidification, biogas, de-nitrification ) Dissolvement of individual odurcomponents in slurry (ph, ionstrength, temperature ) Surface area (application technique) Wind speed / direction Link til lugtreduktion

38 Reduction of odour Reduction with use of iron sulfate Adding sulphuric acid => H + + NH3 ammonia transform to ammonium NH4+ = no odour Adding iron sulfate causes hydrogen sulphide to react => => H 2 S + FeSo 4 = FeS + H 2 So4 = no odour Changes the dominance of different odour components = changed odour
