The bacterial community drive the humification and greenhouse gas emissions during plant residues composting under different aeration rates

This study investigated the effects of different aeration intensities on organic matter (OM) degradation, greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) as well as humification during plant residue composting. Three intermittent aeration intensities of 0.084 (Tlow), 0.19 (Tmedium) and 0.34 (Thigh) L min-1kg-1 DM wi...

Description
Résumé:This study investigated the effects of different aeration intensities on organic matter (OM) degradation, greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) as well as humification during plant residue composting. Three intermittent aeration intensities of 0.084 (Tlow), 0.19 (Tmedium) and 0.34 (Thigh) L min-1kg-1 DM with 30 min on/30 min off were conducted on a lab-scale composting experiment. Results showed that OM mineralization in Thigh was more evident than Tlow and Tmedium, resulting in the highest humic acid content. Humic acid content in Tmedium and Thigh was 15.7% and 18.5% higher than that in Tlow. The average O2 concentration was 4.9%, 9.5% and 13.6% for Tlow, Tmedium and Thigh. Compared with Tmedium and Thigh, Tlow reduced CO2 and N2O emissions by 18.3%-39.6% and 72.4%-63.9%, but the CH4 emission was highest in Tlow. But the total GHG emission was the lowest in Thigh. Linear Discriminant Analysis Effect Size analysis showed that the core bacteria within Tlow mainly belonged to Anaerolineaceae, which was significantly negatively correlated to the emission of CH4. Thermostaphylospora, Unclassified_Vicinamibacteraceae and Sulfurifustis were identified as core bacteria in Tmedium and Thigh, and these genus were significantly postively correlated to CO2 and N2O emissions. Redundancy analysis showed that total orgnic carbon, O2 and electrical conductivity were the key factors affecting the evolution of bacterial community
