Life Cycle Inventory and Life Cycle Assessment for Windrow Composting Systems

The NSW Department of Environment and Conservation has undertaken a study on the life cycle assessment

(LCA) of windrow composting systems to inform the management of organic materials diverted from landfill in

NSW.

The study confirms the environmental benefits associated with recycling of organic materials diverted from landfill, being an important service provided to the community by numerous local councils across NSW. The report also provides valuable support data for local councils considering and assessing options for improving the recovery of organics from landfill in NSW
