Gaz emission during digestats management: impact of digestats pros-processing stratégies used with livestock effluent co-digestion, on gas emission, from digester to soil
Emissions gazeuses à la gestion des digestats: Impact des stratégies de post-traitement sur les émissions gazeuses observées entre le digesteur et le retour au sol du digestat
Résumé
Knowledge and mitigation of gazeous emission that can occur at differents steps of digestats post-processing and used (liquid/solid separation, drying, storage, pelletisation, spreading,…) result in a very important chalenge as well at the environmental point of view as economic. These gaseous emission could seriously influence : -The impact of anaerobic digestion sector on ammonia emission from agricultural activities, and enviromental associated impacts (air quality, acidification,…) -The impact of anaerobic digestion sector on climate change (N2O and CH4 emission) -The possibility of substitution of mineral fertilizer by the digestats (ammonia emission is one of the main sources of nitrogen loss on the sector) -The social acceptability of the sector (emission of odorous compounds) In a goal of optimization of the strategies of spreading, or to allow an export from production area, many strategies of post-processing of the digestats can be put in work. Steps of post-processing influence significantly digestat properties and emission behavior during management. The aim of this work is to evaluate the impact of these different strategies for 4 scenario including : one with no particular post-processing to manage a raw digestat, and 3 others with liquid/solid separation step, solid phase drying, and pelletization; the evaluation of impact include each time storage and land-spreading steps. Emissions concerned in this work are NH3, CH4, and N2O (only during storage), and odors (measured with dynamic olfactometry) Results allow to define post-processing strategies according with a goal of emission mitigation on the whole process ; According to the post-processing of digestats applied, we can define steps on which mitigation or reduction of emission should focus, in the aim of improving the enviromental balance.
