METHOD OF APPLICATION

Application of Zeolite in Livestock Farming

Zeolite absorbs moisture and eliminates odors from livestock waste. The amount applied depends on the total moisture and nitrogen content of the manure and urine. Reducing moisture also reduces insects and worms. Nitrogen absorption significantly reduces unpleasant odors.

Recommended application

Apply in layers. Ideally, floors should be cleaned frequently and zeolite should be applied to all surfaces. If cleaning is not frequent, successive layers should be applied to the surfaces.

Application in the wastewater treatment circuit and in the ventilation circuit. It is recommended for use in the filter columns of the wastewater treatment circuit and in the filters of the ventilation circuit. It ideally filters ammonia and hydrogen sulfide at a rate of 80%.

Composting. Zeolite increases the nitrogen content of compost and makes it water-soluble, providing the soil with the necessary nutrients while eliminating unpleasant odors.

Sewage sludge. The use of zeolite in sewage sludge makes it ideal for use in crops.

Livestock Farming and Production Improvement with Natural Zeolites

Natural zeolites contribute significantly to livestock production, enhancing animal health and feed quality in a natural way.

Four key applications in animal farming:
  • Add to animal feed to bind toxins and promote digestive health.

  • Improvement of feed quality, reduction of moisture and fungal growth.

  • Odor control in livestock farms through natural ammonia absorption.

  • Use on bedding and flooring to absorb moisture and reduce pathogens.

Benefits of Zeolites in Livestock Farming

  • Improvement of digestive function and nutrient absorption.

  • Binding of mycotoxins and heavy metals.

  • Reduction of ammonia and odors in stables.

  • Better quality meat and milk.

  • Stabilisation of moisture in animal feed.

  • Boosting the immune system through a cleaner environment.

Research data

Reduction of ammonia in livestock areas by up to 40%

Improvement in weight gain in animals by 8–10%

Reduction of mycotoxins by up to 90% in animal feed

Increase in milk production by 5–12% in cows
