Odour control at biowaste composting facilities
Waste Management, 2005There are several options to effectively reduce odorous emissions at composting facilities depending on the type of composting system used. Some of the more relevant measures for open and enclosed composting facilities are presented in this article. Results from different investigations on odour reduction efficiencies of biological waste gas treatment ...

Degradation of household biowaste in reactors
Journal of Biotechnology, 2001Household derived biowaste was degraded by biological methods. The system involves the combined method of low-solids (up to 10% w/v of total solids (TS)) anaerobic digestion and aerobic degradation for the recovery of energy (biogas) and the production of fine humus-like material which can be used as a soil amender or a substrate for further thermal ...

Thermogravimetric analysis of biowastes during combustion
Waste Management, 2010The combustion of sewage sludge (SS), animal manure (AM) and the organic fraction of municipal solid waste (OFMSW) was assessed and compared with that of a semianthracite coal (SC) and of a PET waste by thermogravimetric (TG) analysis. Differences were found in the TG curves obtained for the combustion of these materials accordingly to their respective

Microbial characterization during composting of biowaste
Waste Management, 2009Windrow composting of source-separated biowaste was studied in a pilot plant in Crete, with regard to abiotic factors, gas concentration in the pile and succession of functional microbial groups. The pH, C/N ratio and VS content, as well as the O(2) and CO(2) concentration, correlated well with composting time, indicating typical composting behaviour ...

Occupational hygiene in biowaste composting
Waste Management & Research: The Journal for a Sustainable Circular Economy, 1998Source-separated biowastes from the Helsinki Metropolitan Area have been composted in open air windrows at Ammas suo, the Helsinki regional landfill in Espoo (Finland). The most significant problem encountered in the early stages of the process has been the formation of rancid odor causing human discomfort.

Composting to Recycle Biowaste
2009If agriculture is to be made sustainable, few activities like composting are very important. Composting not only allows organic waste of agricultural origin to be recycled and returned to the soil, but also provides a solution for managing much of the waste, which is currently a major problem.

Biowaste for Carbon Sequestration
2019The release of carbon into the environment contributes to greenhouse gases, which cause environmental problems such as climate change. Sources of carbon into the environment include the decomposition and burning of carbon-based materials such as biomaterials, fossil fuels, and municipal waste.
