Hi there; I'm considering the use of a polymer based technology (http://www.selco.net) in order to reduce the amount of N from the pig's slurry (finishing swine feed with dry feeding) of my barn. The process ends with two separate fractions--liquid and solid. That solid fraction include: Solid fraction 20% (200 kg) Parameter Concent. Units Quantity ========= ======== ===== ========= pH 7.12 pH COND. 2.422,00 microS/cm2 HUMIDITY 85,00 %H2O DRY MATTER 22,00 %44,00 Kg ARH 5,18 %10,36 Kg ORGANIC C. 41,25 %5.5 12,37 Kg TOTAL N 3,35 %5.5 1,00 Kg TOTAL P 1,51 %5.5 0,45 Kg TOTAL K 0,55 %5.5 0,29 Kg HUMIF.

The same table can be best viewed at their official site at: http://www.selco.net/ing/fracso.htm (RECOMMENDED). I think that from the above table Cd and Pd are only ones that can be hazardous to the soil or the plants involved. So are the above amounts of Cadmium and Palladium risky for some reason or another? Are the amounts of Cd and Pd increasing between each slurry spreading work? Really the polymer technology is dependable, environmentaly friendly and economically cheap? Many thanks. P.S. If other newsgroups will fit better with this question, please let me know.
