Obiettivo Pig farming is a major EU agricultural industry, with about 300 million tons of manure produced annually by the SME farmers. This is a major environmental problem, resulting in severe pollution of ground water and eutrophication of surface waters due to hi gh nitrate, ammonia and phosphate emissions. This project provides an integrated solution using a combination of innovative technologies, thereby enabling the farmers to attain environmental compliance with the IPPC, and Waste directives.The project develops a pre-acidification and UASB technology for a digester, combined with dilution by Brammox effluent to prevent ammonia and sulphur inhibition. C-digestion with several other organic wastes will improve biogas output. The Anphos process will remove phosphate as struvite, as well as ammonia removal with precipitation of the non-digested solids. The Brammox process will be used for the first time for the removal of ammonia from the digested pig manure. PIGMAN will develop nitrification/denitrification in an activated sludge process combined with ultra filtration membranes (Biomembrane process).The project will result in a total treatment of pig manure. Anaerobic digestion will produce biogas (about 73 m3 of biogas per pig, per year), for electric power and he at which can be used on the farms and the remainder sold. Additionally a struvite fertilizer + compost mixture (about 75 kg dry matter with 2.5 kg P and 2.7 kg N per pig, per year) is produced, which has a better fertilising value than untreated pig manure .The effluent of the process can be used as irrigation water, process water or discharged on surface water.The consortium of expert research institutes, engineering firms and pig farmers from CY, NL, BE, PL, IL, DK and GR will develop the new combination o f technologies in the first 12 months, and after a mid-term evaluation will build a pilot unit capable of assessing the performance and viability of the PIGMAN technology.
