Studies on the production of biogas of different organic materials in an anaerobic environment are being carried out all over the world. The most important parameters in these researches can be listed as raw material potential, production processes, economic analyses, and environmental effects. Chicken manure is one of the raw materials used in biogas production. In this study, in addition to the analysis of biogas and energy production potential from chicken manure, greenhouse gas emissions were analyzed to evaluate environmental effects. In Turkey, chicken manure is not adequately processed and causes environmental pollution. The model biogas plant and potential energy generation were researched in this field study. The pilot plant produces 8.58 million m of biogas per year by processing about 110 thousand tons of waste. It produces 17 GWh/year of electricity and 16 GWh/year of thermal energy, as well as reducing CO greenhouse gas emissions by 13.86 thousand tons/year.

With the aim of exploring the association between microbial response and volatile fatty acids (VFAs) production in sludge and chicken manure co-fermentation with total solids (TS) controlled, four fermentation experimental groups (TS = 20, 40, 60, and 80 g/L) were established in this study. The results demonstrated that the yield of VFAs reached the peak (530.08 mg COD/g VSS) at the 40 g-TS group.

Anaerobic digestion (AD) technology offers significant advantages in addressing environmental issues arising from the intensification of livestock production since it enables waste reduction and energy recovery. However, the molecular composition of dissolved organic matter (DOM) and its linkages to microbial biodiversity during the industrial-scale AD process of chicken manure (CM) remains unclear. In this study, the chemical structure of CM digestate-derived DOM was characterized by using multi-spectroscopic techniques and ultrahigh-resolution mass spectrometry, and the microbial composition was detected by using 16S rRNA gene sequencing.

Modern poultry production is faced with the challenge of properly managing its associated wastes, in particular chicken manure (CM). There is a need to improve the management of CM through conversion processes that allow the production of value-added products, particularly for energy purposes, such as hydrothermal carbonization (HTC) and anaerobic digestion (AD). The objectives of this study were: i) to optimize the CM-HTC, using response surface methodology with simultaneous optimization of mass yield and higher heating value (HHV), and ii) to evaluate the biomethane potential of the process water generated from hydrochar production under the optimized condition.

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) data from agroecosystems in low- and middle-income countries is limited. We surveyed chicken (n = 52) and pig (n = 47) farms in Kenya to understand AMR in animal-environment pathways. Using LC-MS/MS, we validated the methods for analyzing eight common antibiotics and quantified the associated risks.

Soil around mines contaminated with metal(loid) is not suitable for growing plants and it is necessary to select indigenous plants with tolerance for metal(loid) and ameliorate metal toxicity in soil using soil amendments. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to improve the soil environment to make it suitable for plant growth by treating chicken manure derived-biochar in soil contaminated with arsenic (As), cadmium (Cd), and lead (Pb). Biochar application increased soil pH and significantly reduced bioavailable As, Cd and Pb, thereby lowering toxicity in plants.
