| Abstract: | In order to elucidate the nature of malodor from piggery wastes, volatile compounds in fresh faeces, fresh urine, rotten urine, and rotten mixtures of faeces and urine were isolated by freeze vacuum distillation and continuous extraction and identified by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Many alcohols were detected not in fresh urine, but in faeces. Various fatty acids were determined at high concentrations in all samples, but their abundance was different in faeces and urine. Large amounts of phenols came from urine. Aromatic carboxylic acids were detected only in urine and decreased rapidly during digestion. Indole and 3-methylindole which were present only in faeces showed a reverse change of concentration during digestion. |
