All,

What happens to chlorine during digestion? Many manures can contain up to 1%
chlorine (dry basis). What reactions occur and what happens to the chlorine
during digestion? Does it stay with the effluent or does it carry off with
the gas? If it goes with the gas what is done to protect engines in most
applications?

Thanks
