1 Modeling of gaseous emission in pig production Jean-Yves Dourmad, Florence Garcia-Launay, Sandrine Espagnol INRA Agrocampus Ouest UMR Pegase France IFIP Institut du Porc le Rheu, France

2 Content Origin of gaseous emissions Animal metabolism Indigested nutrient Indirect emissions Modeling of animal excretion and gaseous emissions Excretion of nutrients Emission of CH 4 and CO 2 Modeling of emissions from manure Emission factors and empirical models Mechanistic models Modeling of emissions from the production chain Life Cycle Assessment

3 Origin of gaseous emissions Two main origins Digestion and metabolism of nutrients Respiration CO 2 and enteric CH 4 Biochemical transformation of excreta From urine From feces Collected as slurry or solid manure During storage and spreading During treatment

4 Origin of gaseous emissions CO 2 energy metabolism of nutrient (respiration) transformation of urea into ammonia aerobic and anaerobic microbial digestion of excreta and manure organic matter CH 4 enteric fermentation of digestible feed fiber anaerobic digestion in manure of undigested feed organic matter H 2 S anaerobic digestion of undigested feed organic matter in manure in presence of sulfur

5 Origin of gaseous emissions NH 3 Fecal excretion (microbial production in the hindgut) Emission from manure in anaerobic conditions (NH 4 + from urea and microbial digestion of undigested protein) N 2 O, NO x, N 2 Nitrification/denitrification of ammonia (aerobic conditions) Organic volatile compounds (odours) More than 300 compounds (identified or not)

6 Origin of gaseous emissions Implications for modeling Gaseous emissions are essentially issued from the non retained fraction of the feed => modeling of animal gaseous emissions (CH 4, CO 2, water) and nutrient (N and C compounds, minerals) and water excretion Different bio-chemical processes are involved in the emission of each gas => modeling of these bio-chemical processes The emissions occur at different location and time => modeling of the whole production and manure management chain (animal, housing, storage, spreading) => integrated/dynamic modeling

7 Content Origin of gaseous emissions Animal metabolism Indigested nutrient Indirect emissions Modeling of animal excretion and gaseous emissions Excretion of nutrients Emission of CH 4 and CO 2 Modeling of emissions from manure Emission factors and empirical models Mechanistic models Modeling of emissions from the production chain Life Cycle Assessment

8 Modeling of animal excretion and gaseous emissions heat CO 2 CH 4 water Water Body retention Feces Feed Urine CP, P, K, Cu, Zn, MM, DM, ME, NE, fiber N, P, K, Cu, Zn, MM DM, OM, minerals

9 Modeling of animal excretion and gaseous emissions Heat production HP = f(energy intake, body weight, ME/NE ratio) HP = energy for maintenance + heat increment (+ heat for thermoregulation below thermoneutratily) Noblet et al.(1990) Respiration CO 2 Resp_CO 2 = f(heat production) Water evaporated WE = f(latent heat production) CIGR Latent heat production = f(hp, ambient temperature) CIGR Rigolot et al., 2010

10 Modeling of animal excretion and gaseous emissions Water excretion/balance WE = f(dinking water, feed water, metabolic water, body water, evaporated water) Metabolic water = f(respiration CO 2 ) Body water = f(body protein) Dry matter excretion DM_F = f(feed intake, feed DM, DM digestibility) DM digestibility = f(digestible energy, NDF, mineral matter) Amount of slurry SL = Water excretion + DM excretion Le Goff et al.(2001) Rigolot et al., 2010

11 Prediction of enteric methane emission by the different categories of pig (g/d) Rigolot et al., 2010

12 Effect diet composition on enteric methane emission by fattening pigs (g/d) % Low fiber cereals, soybean meal High fiber cereals, rapeseed meal, DDGS Jarret et al., 2012

13 Comparison of amount of slurry predicted and collected (slated floor) 55 exp groups from 25 publications on fattening pigs, weaners and sows Rigolot et al., 2010

14 Comparison of amount of N excreted and collected in slurry (slated floor) 55 exp. groups from 25 publications on fattening pigs, weaners and sows N in slurry = x N excreted (R 2 = 0.91) Gaseous losses of N compounds = 24.5% Rigolot et al., 2010

15 Comparison of amount of N excreted and collected (slated floor) after correction 55 exp. groups from 25 publications on fattening pigs, weaners and sows N in slurry = x N excreted (R 2 = 0.91) Gaseous losses of N compounds = 24.5% Rigolot et al., 2010

18 Evaluation of gaseous N compounds during storage Choice of a rather empirical but generic approach Because of the large diversity of chains (solid, liquid) To be applied to storage inside and outside The emission factor expressed as a % of excretion (inside storage) of per m 2 (outside storage) The variation factors are specific to each manure chain Rigolot et al., 2010b

19 Evaluation of NH 3 emission from housing of pigs on slatted floor (slurry) N_NH 3 = N_Excreted x 0.24 x VF_Ndilution x VF_Temperature x VF_Air ventilation x VF_floor x VF_Frequency f(nurine, slurry volume) f(ambient temperature) f(ventilation rate/kg BW) f(type of floor) f(freq of slurry removal) Rigolot et al., 2010b
