Characterization of animal manure and cornstalk ashes as affected by incineration temperature
Publication year: 2011 Source: Applied Energy, Volume 88, Issue 3, March 2011, Pages 947-952 Y., Huang , H., Dong , B., Shang , H., Xin , Z., Zhu Incineration has been proposed as an alternative technology to reuse animal manure by producing energy and ash fertilizers. The objective of this study was to assess the impact of incineration temperature on the physical (ash yield) and chemical (nutrient) properties of ashes for different types of animal manure and cornstalk. The source materials were incinerated in a temperature-controlled muffle furnace at the temperature of 400, 500, 600, 700, 800 or 900°C and the properties of the resultant ashes were determined following the procedures set by China National Standards
