High reduction effects in liquid swine manure which derive from addition of gypsum may be caused by anaerobic CH4 oxidation and its connection to denitrifying processes including N2O formation and anaerobic NH3 oxidation. Above all, it seems to be possible to reduce NH3 and trace gas emissions from animal wastes by addition of gypsum.
