Dairy Shed Wastewater Treatment By Anaerobic Digestion Technology, Ling Tie, Muttucumaru Sivakumar Jan 2006

Dairy Shed Wastewater Treatment By Anaerobic Digestion Technology, Ling Tie, Muttucumaru Sivakumar

Continued growth and consolidation of the livestock industry such as dairy industry has generated large-quantities and high-strength manure, which has long been identified as a major contributor to diffuse source pollution in Australia. However, conventional dairy shed wastewater treatment practices in Australia such as two pond systems still do not provide sufficient treatment. In addition, relevant laws and regulations in terms of nutrient management plans and manure solids disposal require new waste management approaches. Anaerobic digestion (AD) is an efficient, small footprint, cost effective and sustainable technology that should be applied in Australian dairy farms, and has the potential not …

Driven by stricter environmental regulations and legalisation on wastewater discharge and shrinking fresh water resources, water treatment has become an area of significant concern while at the same time there is a growing interest in utilising non-traditional water resources by means of water reclamation and water recycling.


The Application Of Linear Elastic Fracture Mechanics To Optimize The Vacuum Heat Treatment And Nitriding Of Hot-Work Tool Steels, V. Leskovsek, Borivoj Sustarsic, David J. Nolan Jan 2006
