Evaluation of Green Waste Management Impacts on GHG Emissions Alternative Daily Cover Compared with Composting
Green waste is a key component of California’s solid waste stream and so is an important target for effective waste diversion. The California Integrated Waste Management Board (CIWMB) reports that about 15 million cubic yards of organics comprised largely of green waste are diverted annually in California. The diverted organics are principally used as compost and mulch in agricultural and urban...
متن کاملMicrobial Community Dynamics and Stability Assessment during Green Waste Composting
Green waste (leaves, grass and shredded twigs) was composted for 5.5 months in a wooden composting bioreactor, of 1 m capacity, using both passive convective aeration, facilitated by the design of the bioreactor, and manual turning. Temperature was measured daily, while samples were analysed for moisture content, volatile solids, pH value and electrical conductivity, all of which showed a typic...
متن کاملCo-composting of green waste and food waste at low C/N ratio.
In this study, co-composting of food waste and green waste at low initial carbon to nitrogen (C/N) ratios was investigated using an in-vessel lab-scale composting reactor. The central composite design (CCD) and response surface method (RSM) were applied to obtain the optimal operating conditions over a range of preselected moisture contents (45-75%) and C/N ratios (13.9-19.6). The results indic...

متن کاملEvaluation of an Organic Waste Composting Device to Household Treatment
The performance of a plug-flow automated aerobic digester used with the compost of the Biodegradable Organic Waste (BOW) from a typical family at its generation rhythm was evaluated. During a 13 month assessment, 179.7 kg of BOW were treated and 106.7 kg of compost were obtained with a C:N ratio of 12 and an average concentration of N of about 2.72%. Additional tests enabled to assess the gener...
