Natschke, D. F., R. A. Hashmonay, K. Wagoner, D B. Harris*, E L. Thompson*, AND C A. Vogel*. SEASONAL EMISSIONS OF AMMONIA AND METHANE FROM A HOG WASTE LAGOON WITH BIOACTIVE COVER. Presented at Int.Symp., Addressing Animal Production and Environmental Issues, Research Triangle Park, NC, October 03 - 05, 2001.
Description:
The paper discusses the use of plane-integrated (PI) open-path Fourier transform infrared spectrometry (OP-FTIR) to measure the flux of ammonia and methane from a hog waste lagoon before and after the installation of a bioactive cover. A computed tomography algorithm using a smoothed basis function converts the measured PI concentrations into a plume profile. Simultaneously collected wind data are integrated across the plume to yield the emission flux. Seasonal data are reported, beginning with summer data collected before and after the cover installation through the following spring. Emission data from the naturally ventilated finishing barn feeding this lagoon are also presented.
