The current study evaluated the quality of agricultural waste digestate by composting or co-composting with biogas feedstock (maize silage, food processing waste, or poultry litter). Temperature, phytotoxicity, C/N ratio, water extractable trace elements, and 14 enzyme activities were monitored. Temperature dropped earlier in digestate and maize silage co-composting pile, reducing time to maturity by 20 days. Composting and co-composting reduced phytotoxicity and C/N ratio, but increased immobilization of Al, Ba, Fe, Zn, and Mn at least by 40% in all piles. All the enzyme activities, except arylsulfatase and α-glucosidase, increased at the maturity phase and negatively correlated with organic matter content and most of trace elements. Post-digestate composting or co-composting with biogas feedstock is a promising strategy to improve digestate quality for fertilizer use, and selected enzyme activities can be indicators of compost maturity and immobilization of trace elements.
本研究通过堆肥或与沼气原料(玉米青贮、食品加工废物或家禽粪便)共堆肥来评估农业废物消化物的质量。监测了温度、植物毒性、C/N 比、水可提取微量元素和 14 种酶活性。在消化物和玉米青贮共堆肥堆中,温度较早下降,使成熟时间缩短了 20 天。堆肥和共堆肥降低了植物毒性和 C/N 比,但在所有堆肥中,至少有 40%的 Al、Ba、Fe、Zn 和 Mn 被固定。除了芳基硫酸酯酶和α-葡萄糖苷酶外,所有酶活性在成熟阶段均增加,与有机质含量和大多数微量元素呈负相关。沼气原料的消化后堆肥或共堆肥是一种很有前途的策略,可以改善消化物质量,使其更适合用作肥料,并且可以选择一些酶活性作为堆肥成熟和微量元素固定的指标。
