Composting is the controlled aerobic biological decomposition of organic matter into a stable, humuslike product called compost. It is essentially the same process as natural decomposition except that it is enhanced and accelerated by mixing organic waste with other ingredients to optimize microbial growth

With close to 300,000 sites nationwide in need of clean-up over the next 30 years, composting is among the remediation technologies being put to use
Mais »BIOLOGICAL WASTE TREATMENT IN EUROPE – TECHNICAL AND MARKET DEVELOPMENTS
Investigations in Europe indicate that quality and marketing of the end product are the most crucial composting issues. Both producers and users are of the opinion that sustainable recycling of organic wastes demands clear regulations with regard to what is suitable to be recycled and how it should be managed …
