The book describes the physical and chemical characteristics of animal manure and microbial processes, featuring detailed examples and case studies showing how this knowledge can be used in practice. Readers are introduced to the sustainable use of animal manure for crop fertilisation and soil amelioration. Environmentally friendly technologies for reducing emissions of ammonia, odour and the greenhouse gases nitrous oxide and methane are presented, and reduction of plant nutrient losses using separation technologies is introduced. Finally and most importantly, the book describes methods to commercialise and transfer knowledge about innovations to end-users.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eTopics covered include: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eRegulation of animal manure management\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eManure organic matter: characteristics and microbial transformations\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eGreenhouse gas emissions from animal manures and technologies for their reduction\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eTechnologies and logistics for handling, transport and distribution of animal manures\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBioenergy production\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAnimal manure residue upgrading and nutrient recovery in bio-fertilisers\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eLife cycle assessment of manure management systems\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eInnovation in animal manure management and recycling\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eAnimal Manure Recycling: Treatment and Management\u003c\/i\u003e presents state-of-the-art coverage of the entire animal manure chain, providing practical information for engineers, environmental consultants, academics and advanced students involved in scientific, technical and regulatory issues related to animal manure management.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sven G.
