Abstract

ABSTRACT FACULTATIVE and aerobic digesters for livestock wastes were used to degrade pesticide materials (chlordane, Diazinon, Baygon) in the laboratory. Three different animal wastes were used as digester media for the process: swine, chicken and dairy cattle manure. Process effects on disappearance of the pesticides was observed over periods of 0 to 8 weeks (facultative) and 0 to 6 weeks (aerobic). Disappearance ranged from 10 to 72% under facultative conditions, and 29 to 100% under aerobic conditions. The study was extended to the use of field animal waste lagoons.
