Abstract
This study investigated the effects of phosphogypsum, superphosphate, and dicyandiamide on gaseous emission and compost quality during sewage sludge composting. Results showed that phosphogypsum reduced ammonia (NH3) and methane (CH4) emissions but increased nitrous oxide (N2O) emission. Superphosphate simultaneously reduced NH3, N2O and CH4 emissions. Dicyandiamide markedly reduced N2O emission during composting. Combination of phosphogypsum and dicyandiamide reduced CH4 and N2O emissions by 75.6% and 86.4%, while NH3 emission was increased by 22.0%. Combination of superphosphate and dicyandiamide reduced NH3, CH4 and N2O emissions by 12.3%, 81.0% and 88.2%, respectively. More importantly, with the addition of 10% initial raw materials, phosphogypsum and superphosphate conserved nitrogen and improved compost quality by introducing additional nutrients.
