2016/2/2/ · Composting can be defined as decomposition of organic matter under aerobic conditions into humus-like substances and minerals by the action of microorganisms combined with chemical and physical reactions (Piegne and Girardin 2004).Composting stabilizes

2021/10/1/ · In this study, composting piles of swine manure and wheat straw were inoculated with G. trabeum using In tank composting reactors. The objectives of this study were to: (i) assess the effect of G. trabeum inoculation on the composting maturation and lignocellulose degradation process, (ii) investigate the response of fungal community and extracellular

organic horse manure composting device with odor-free 2017/6/15/ · On its own, horse manure typically is about 18:1 ratio of C:N. While this is not very far of the desired 25:1,

During manure composting process, the compost maturity is influenced by factors such as the composting material, the characteristics of composting process, etc. (Chen et al., 2023). Compost maturity is typically assessed using indicators including organic matter changes, humification index, carbon–nitrogen ratio (C/N), seed germination index (GI), etc. ( Gao et al., 2024 ,

Herein, we conducted a composting experiment for 30 days to study the degradation of swine manure and its mechanism withvermicompostamendment. Thestudyaimedtoinvestigate the following: (1) the effect of improving the composting inter-nal conditions on

2024/12/15/ · The composting experiment was conducted in laboratory-scale reactors (40 L) following the protocol in our previous study (Liu et al., 2024).The composting mixture consisted of 80 kg of fresh chicken manure (80% moisture) and 16 kg of corn stover (10% moisture

The process for decomposition and disposal is neither fast nor efficient, and handling the problem can be taxing and time-consuming for producers. The byproducts of waste disposal are also not especially productive, which leads to the ongoing reliance on fertilizers and fumigants that have a negative impact on any efforts for more sustainable agriculture.

2024/11/12/ · The above results demonstrate that mature compost addition into swine manure and carcasses could increase the relative abundance and the number of microbial taxa involved with organic matter degradation (e.g., Ureibacillus), providing an appropriate temperature and pH environment for driving composting maturity.

2023/10/18/ · Maintaining the Compost Pile As a compost pile matures, it requires regular maintenance to ensure that it remains healthy and effective. The pH level of the compost pile should be monitored regularly, and if it falls outside of the ideal range of 6.0 to 8.0, lime can be

2024/6/22/ · Fermentation 2024, 10, 328 2 of 27 1.3 billion mu of natural grassland and 30 million mu of artificial grassland, along with around 95,000 large-scale cattle and sheep farms [4–7]. Over the past few decades, the cattle and sheep populations in Inner Mongolia have

2023/11/27/ · Aerobic composting is an effective method of resource treatment for agricultural and forestry solid waste; however, while wheat straw is usually used as a conditioner and is not the main body as in aerobic composting, wheat straw is abundant in annual production, and fertilization is one of the main ways of resource utilization of wheat straw, how to use wheat

2023/8/1/ · This study included two treatment groups. The experimental group with the addition of 10% (fresh weight) mature compost was designated S1, and the aerobic compost of cattle manure without the addition of mature compost was used as the control group (CK). A

2017/6/1/ · For efficient composting process, carbon to nitrogen ratio (i.e., C/N) should be 20–40 while the moisture content of input feed need to be maintained between 40–60% (Garg and Tothill, 2009). In developing nations, the waste dumping sites are overburdened due to the uncontrolled disposal of mixed MSW ( Jara-Samaniego et al., 2016 ).

2020/9/23/ · Aerobic composting is a sustainable method for chicken manure recycling, while its unsuitable porosity and carbon to nitrogen ratio (C/N) may result in high nitrogen loss and incomplete composting.

2023/7/27/ · In doing so, we developed a novel cow manure composting apparatus based on the target composting quantity method. The new design features a refined ventilation and …
