Composting is a controlled aerobic process of biologically “digesting” the MSW, so it may be recycled for other purposes—plant nutrient, stabilization of soil in remediation process, or soil amendment for recovery of poor soils.
Compost production can be carried out at the decentralised level
home composting,
bin composting,
box composting,
vermicomposting,
invessel composting
at a centralised level
windrow composting,
invessel composting,
aerated static pile
depending on the feasibility of implementation. Both processes require significant pre-processing, and only segregated organic matter can be composted.
Compost produced should meet with quality criteria specified by the Fertilizer Control Order (FCO), 2009 and 2013. A market for the compost should be ascertained before sizing the compost plants.
