Review on the Current Composting Practices and the Potential of Improvement using Two-Stage Composting

Chemical Engineering Transactions, 2017
Composting is one of the applicable technologies to recycle organic waste into a value-added product. It allows the transformation and stabilisation of the organic waste into bio-fertiliser that can be applied to land and crops safely.

Microbial community dynamics during composting of sewage sludge and straw studied through phospholipid and neutral lipid analysis [PDF]

, 2008
The composting process involves a succession of different communities of microorganisms that decompose the initial material, transforming it into a stable final product. In thiswork, the levels of phospholipid fatty acid (PLFA), neutral lipid fatty acid (

Sudden anaerobization in Amphibacillus xylanus increases intracellular labile ferrous iron and inhibits cell growth

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Abruptly changing from aerobic to anaerobic conditions (sudden anaerobization) induced growth inhibition and a significant increase in intracellular labile ferrous iron in the aerotolerant anaerobe Amphibacillus xylanus. We found that free flavins mediate efficient electron transfer from NADH to ferric iron under anaerobic conditions, suggesting that ...
