Abstract
This study investigated the impact of mature compost input on compost quality, greenhouse gases (GHGs, i.e. methane and nitrous oxide) and ammonia emissions during chicken manure and rice husk chicken manure co-composting. The experiment used different volumes of mature compost: 10% (T1), 20% (T2), and 30% (T3) to replace rice husk chicken manure. Results showed that mature compost enhanced compost maturity by promoting the activities of Bacillus, Caldicoprobacter, Thermobifida, Pseudogracilibacillus, Brachybacterium, and Sinibacillus. Compared to CK, T1, T2, and T3 reduced NH3 emission by 32.07%, 33.64%, and 56.12%, and mitigated 14.97%, 16.57%, and 26.18% of total nitrogen loss, respectively. Additionally, T2 and T3 reduced CH4 emission by 40.98% and 62.24%, respectively. The N2O emissions were positive correlation with Lactobacillus, Pseudogracilibacillus and ammonium nitrogen (p < 0.05), while T2 reducing total greenhouse effects. Therefore, replacing rice husk chicken manure with 20% mature compost is an efficient and promising approach for composting.
