The aim of this study was to evaluate two types of poultry bedding litter (wood shavings and coffee husks) with increasing use cycles, the best time to proceed with composting based on the carbon/nitrogen ratio and the ability to generate ammonia. The results obtained with the present experiment conditions indicated that the litter with wood shavings in the first cycle and the litter with coffee husks in the first and second cycles presented the best behavior in terms of the C/N ratio needed for later use as compost. In regards to the contamination potential, it was found that increasing the number of reutilizations for both the wood-shaving and coffee-husk litters resulted in a greater ammonia emission.
El objetivo de este estudio fue evaluar dos tipos de cama de pollo de engorde (aserrín de madera y cáscaras de café) con ciclos de uso crecientes, buscando el mejor momento para ser utilizado como compostaje en base a su relación Carbono/ Nitrógeno, y conocer su capacidad de generación de amoníaco. Considerándose las condiciones experimentales en las que se llevó a cabo este estudio, se encontró que la cama de aserrín de madera del primer ciclo y la cáscara de café del primer y segundo ciclo, fueron las que presentaron mejor comportamiento en su relación C/N para su posterior utilización como compostaje. En cuanto a su capacidad contaminante, se encontró que a mayor reúso de las camas tanto de aserrín de madera como de cáscara de café, se presenta una mayor producción de amoníaco.
