Firmicutes primarily drive odor emission profiles in poultry manure treatments.

ABSTRACT: Odor emission during livestock manure treatment poses a threat to the environment and human health. However, the odor emission profiles and related factors of commonly employed poultry manure treatments have rarely been studied. Here, we explored the odor emission profiles of 3 common poultry manure treatments in China, namely, ectopic fermentation beds (EFB), annular composting troughs (ACT) and air-drying rooms (ADR). The results revealed that the total odor concentrations in the EFB, ACT and ADR groups were 2407.67 ± 512.94, 13444.00 ± 1269.92 and 621.33 ± 59.27, respectively. The ACT had the greatest number of odorants (31), followed by the ADR (27) and the EFB (24). Methyl mercaptan, acetic acid, acetaldehyde, hydrogen sulfide, ammonia and acrolein were the key odorous compounds detec
