Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to livestock and poultry farming, and more particularly to a process for manufacturing a layered microbial fermentation bed for livestock and poultry. Background Technology

[0002] Existing biological agent fermentation bed livestock and poultry breeding technologies, such as the commonly used pig fermentation bed, allow pigs to grow on the fermentation bed. The excreted feces and urine are directly degraded by a large number of microorganisms in the fermentation bed, thereby reducing the generation of harmful gases in the farm and reducing the emission of feces and urine, thus achieving the goal of energy conservation and emission reduction.

[0003] Currently, the fermentation bedding materials are all uniformly prepared according to the same formula and moisture ratio, and then laid in the pit to form a fermentation bed to degrade pig manure and urine. The thickness varies from 70 to 100 cm, and there is no layered preparation.

[0004] The air permeability of the entire fermentation bed layer is uneven. Significant urine seepage occurs, and there is a large difference in moisture content between the upper and lower layers. Excessive moisture affects the fermentation effect of the environmentally friendly microbial agents in the bottom layer and the overall fecal treatment effect.

[0005] Existing fermentation beds can cause livestock and poultry to ingest indigestible substances due to direct contact with the bedding material, leading to intestinal obstruction. Inhaling bedding dust can cause respiratory diseases. The fermentation process produces harmful gases that can cause livestock and poultry to become ill. High temperature and humidity can also induce skin diseases. Summary of the Invention

[0040] The following description of embodiments of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings is intended to explain the overall inventive concept of the invention and should not be construed as a limitation thereof. In this invention, the same reference numerals denote the same or similar parts.

[0041] The features described herein may be implemented in various forms and should not be construed as limited to the examples described herein. Rather, the examples described herein are provided only to illustrate some of the many feasible ways in which the methods, apparatuses, and / or systems described herein will become clear upon understanding the disclosure of the invention.

[0042] The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing various examples only and is not intended to limit disclosure. Unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, the singular form is intended to include the plural form as well. The terms “comprising,” “including,” and “having” indicate the presence of the described features, quantities, operations, components, elements, and / or combinations thereof, but do not preclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, quantities, operations, components, elements, and / or combinations thereof.

[0043] To enable those skilled in the art to utilize the content of this invention, the following exemplary embodiments may be provided in conjunction with specific application scenarios, specific systems, device and component parameters, and specific connection methods. However, these embodiments are merely examples for those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein can be applied to other embodiments and application scenarios without departing from the spirit and scope of this invention.

[0044] The present invention provides a process for manufacturing a layered microbial fermentation bed for livestock and poultry, comprising the following steps:

[0045] S0: Lay the bottom layer, 15-30cm thick, including at least one of branches, logs, and bundled straw; use tree boards, logs, or bundled straw to create a breathable bottom layer, providing sufficient oxygen supply for aerobic fermentation. If the bottom layer is anaerobic, it will produce a foul odor. The gap structure also facilitates the rapid drainage of excess water seeping from the upper layer, preventing the bedding from becoming too wet.

[0046] S1: First Layer Preparation: Lay at least one of chopped straw and sawdust, 10-20cm thick. The volume occupied by the chopped straw or sawdust is denoted as V1. The chopped straw is crushed by a crusher, with an average particle size of less than 1cm. Chopped straw or sawdust has a large specific surface area and good water absorption and retention properties, and is also an excellent carbon source. Straw or sawdust mainly provides high-molecular-weight carbohydrates such as cellulose and hemicellulose, which are the main energy and carbon skeleton sources for microorganisms and the basic substances for fermentation. The fine structure can effectively absorb moisture and ammonia from animal feces, reduce odor emission, and provide good attachment sites for microorganisms. Its water retention helps maintain suitable humidity.

[0047] S2 is used to make the second layer: at least one of the following: rice husks, peanut shells, or melon seed shells, with a thickness of 22-28cm. The volume occupied by the rice husks, peanut shells, or melon seed shells is denoted as V2. The grain shells or nut shells have good hardness and elasticity, which can effectively resist the compaction caused by animal trampling, maintain high porosity for a long time, and ensure the diffusion and circulation of oxygen in the core fermentation area.

[0048] S3 is the third layer: At least one of pine needles and leaves is laid, 12-16 cm thick. The volume occupied by the pine needles or leaves is denoted as V3. Pine needles and leaves contain natural substances such as plant essential oils and phenolic compounds, which have a certain inhibitory effect on harmful bacteria and a repellent effect on some parasites, helping to improve the surface hygiene environment and reduce the risk of animals coming into contact with pathogens. At the same time, they provide lignin, cellulose, and other components different from straw and shells, enriching the diversity of carbon sources available to microorganisms. The decomposition process of pine needles may produce acidic substances, which help neutralize some alkaline substances such as ammonia produced by the decomposition of feces, maintaining a more stable microenvironment.

[0049] The fourth layer (S4) consists of at least one of the following: Miscanthus sinensis and wheat straw. Both are crushed to an average particle size of less than 3 cm. The thickness is 10-12 cm. The volume occupied by the Miscanthus sinensis or wheat straw leaves is denoted as V4. Animal comfort: The Miscanthus sinensis or wheat straw is relatively soft and dry, providing animals with a warm, soft, and dry surface for rest and activity, reducing skin friction damage. It can quickly absorb fresh feces and urine excreted by animals, "encapsulating" them and gradually penetrating downwards, reducing fly breeding and direct odor emission. After receiving feces on the surface, it begins initial decomposition and then gradually mixes with the lower layers to participate in deeper fermentation.

[0050] The bundled straw in step S0 is corn stalk, and the chopped straw in step S1 is chopped corn stalk. The chopped corn stalk can be used by pigs to gnaw on. When pigs gnaw on the stalk, they turn over the top layers, which increases their activity level and mixes the layers together, which is beneficial for later fermentation.

[0051] Steps S2 and S3 both include the following steps: adding water, controlling the moisture content to 25-30%; and adding salt evenly, according to the volume occupied by this layer, adding salt at 3-5g / m3.

[0052] Add raw soil evenly, according to the volume occupied by this layer, at a volume ratio of 9-12%.

[0053] Add the mushroom substrate evenly at a rate of 1.8-2.2 kg / m³, depending on the volume occupied by this layer.

[0054] Add the bacterial solution at a rate of 0.9-1.2 kg / m³, based on the volume occupied by this layer. The bacterial solution contains Bacillus subtilis and active probiotics, with a weight ratio of 1:0.5-0.6.

[0055] Step S4 also includes the following steps: adding water, controlling the moisture content to 8-12%; adding salt evenly, according to the volume occupied by this layer, adding salt at 3-5g / m3;

[0056] Add raw soil evenly, according to the volume occupied by this layer, at a volume ratio of 9-12%.

[0057] Add the mushroom substrate evenly at a rate of 1.8-2.2 kg / m³, depending on the volume occupied by this layer.

[0058] Add the bacterial solution at a rate of 0.9-1.2 kg / m³, based on the volume occupied by this layer. The bacterial solution contains Bacillus subtilis and active probiotics, with a weight ratio of 1:0.5-0.6.

[0059] If the moisture content is too low, microbial metabolic activity will stagnate; if it is too high, the pores will be filled with water, leading to oxygen deficiency and the transition from aerobic fermentation to anaerobic fermentation, producing a foul odor. 25-30% is the ideal humidity range for aerobic fermenting microorganisms, such as Bacillus subtilis, to be most active. This humidity level ensures that the microorganisms have the necessary moisture while maintaining sufficient pores to hold oxygen.

[0060] Lower concentrations of salt can slightly increase osmotic pressure, inhibiting the growth and reproduction of some salt-intolerant putrefactive bacteria and pathogens.

[0061] Raw soil, sourced from uncultivated or deep soil layers, is rich in minerals, trace elements, and a small amount of indigenous microorganisms. It provides various mineral elements necessary for microbial metabolism and enzyme activity, such as phosphorus, potassium, calcium, magnesium, iron, manganese, zinc, and copper, serving as indispensable "nutrients" for efficient fermentation. Adsorption and buffering: Soil particles possess adsorption properties, capable of absorbing gases such as ammonia and hydrogen sulfide, reducing odors; they also have a certain buffering capacity against changes in environmental pH.

[0062] Inoculum residue contains a large amount of incompletely utilized organic matter such as lignin and cellulose, microbial protein, metabolites, and abundant active microbial spores. This increases the number and start-up speed of beneficial microorganisms in the fermentation bed. It also replenishes organic matter, providing additional, easily usable organic carbon and nitrogen sources for microorganisms. Furthermore, it enhances microbial diversity, absorbs odors, and stabilizes the fermentation environment.

[0063] Bacillus subtilis rapidly multiplies and powerfully decomposes organic matter such as protein, starch, and fat in animal feces. It produces antibacterial substances such as surfactants to inhibit harmful bacteria (E. coli, Salmonella, etc.). It maintains its activity during the high-temperature fermentation period.

[0064] The active probiotic group consists of lactic acid bacteria and actinomycetes in approximately a 1:1 ratio. Their functions include: Lactic acid bacteria rapidly utilizing soluble sugars to produce acid, lowering the local pH, inhibiting putrefactive bacteria, reducing ammonia production, and improving environmental odor. Actinomycetes excel at decomposing recalcitrant substances such as cellulose and lignin; they also produce antibiotics to inhibit pathogens. The fourth layer has less moisture than the second and third layers to provide a drier and more comfortable environment.
