Thin‐layer chromatography of extracts of raw and treated pig slurries revealed the presence of phenolic acids. The number of phenolic acids present in raw slurry was reduced considerably by aeration and, to a smaller extent, by treatment with hydrogen peroxide; anaerobic storage and digestion proved ineffective for the removal of phenolic acids from pig slurry.
