The aim of this study was to investigate the pathways and mechanisms of nitrogen transformation during the composting process, by adding diatomite (0%, 2.5%, 5%, 10%, 15% and 20%) into initial mixtures of pig manure and sawdust. The results revealed that diatomite facilitated the conversion from NH-N to amino acid nitrogen and hydrolysis undefined nitrogen, then reduced NH and NO emission by 8.63-35.29% and 14.34-73.21%, respectively. Moreover, the structure and abundance of nitrogen functional genes provided evidence for nitrogen loss. Furthermore, compared with the control (0.03), the treatment blended with 10% diatomite (T3) had the highest value in composting score (-1.27). Additionally, the ratio of carbon and nitrogen (57.30%) was vital for reducing nitrogen loss among all physio-chemical parameters in this study. In conclusion, adding diatomite was a practical way to enhance nitrogen conservation and increase quality of end products, and the optimum added dosage was at 10%.
本研究旨在通过在猪粪和木屑初始混合物中添加硅藻土(0%、2.5%、5%、10%、15%和 20%),来研究堆肥过程中氮转化的途径和机制。结果表明,硅藻土促进了 NH-N 向氨基酸氮和水解未知氮的转化,然后分别减少了 8.63-35.29%和 14.34-73.21%的 NH 和 NO 排放。此外,氮功能基因的结构和丰度为氮损失提供了证据。此外,与对照组(0.03)相比,添加 10%硅藻土的处理组(T3)在堆肥评分(-1.27)中具有最高值。此外,在本研究的所有理化参数中,碳氮比(57.30%)对于减少氮损失至关重要。总之,添加硅藻土是一种增强氮素保存和提高终产物质量的实用方法,最佳添加剂量为 10%。
