Applications of Cleaner Production Technıques in a Commercial Laying Hen House

Abstract

The fact that environmental pollution is increasing daily and the emergence of negativities in the lives of living things has led to an increase in environmental awareness. Studying how to reduce soil, water, and air pollution is important. As a result of this situation, the concept of cleaner production has emerged. In this study, calculations and designs were carried out to cleaner production techniques for waste management, natural resource use, and control of pollutants from an hen house with a capacity of 12000 animals. Within the scope of the study, an analysis was conducted on the economic and environmental contributions that would be achieved in enteprise if the fertilizer obtained from the enterprise were used as compost or biogas. Additionally, calculations were performed including rainwater harvesting, feed ration adjustments, LED and fluorescent lamp comparisons, and windbreaks. As a result of the study, the most beneficial method for fertilizer management in the enterprise is composting with an annual income of 6000000 TL. The initial investment costs the enterprise will incur for compost production can be recouped in as little as 2 years. With the installation of rainwater harvesting in the enterprise, an annual water saving of 266.96 m3 is achieved, and a 12.37% reduction in indoor ammonia emissions is experienced as a result of necessary adjustments to the feed ration. As a result of the calculations, it has been determined that the application of clean production techniques in laying hen houses can lead to improvements in animal health and welfare, reduce environmental problems caused by animal production and resource usage.
