Aerobic Thermophilic Composting of Municipal Solid Waste
Composting is a natural process that turns organic material into a dark rich substance called compost. Aerobic Composting is the creation of compost that depends on bacteria that thrive in an oxygen rich environment. Aerobic bacteria manage the chemical process by converting the inputs (i.e. air, water and carbon and nitrogen rich materials) into heat, carbon dioxide and ammonium. The ammonium ...
متن کاملWindrow composting of agricultural and municipal wastes
Kuhlman, L.R., 1990. Window composting of agricultural and municipal wastes. Eur. Symp. on Integrated Resource Recovery from Municipal Solid Wastes. Resour. Conserv. Recycl., 4: 1 5 1 160. Many wastes are produced from agricultural and municipal facilities that are not suitable for direct land application. Composting these wastes converts them to a humus-containing organic material advantageous...
متن کاملIdentification of thermophilic bacteria in solid-waste composting.
The thermophilic microbiota of solid-waste composting, with major emphasis on Bacillus spp., was examined with Trypticase soy broth (BBL Microbiology Systems) with 2% agar as the initial plating medium. Five 4.5-liter laboratory units at 49 to 69 degrees C were fed a mixture of dried table scraps and shredded newspaper. The composting plants treating refuse at Altoona, Pa., and refuse-sludge at...
متن کاملThermophilic Aerobic Digestion of Activated Sludge; Reduction of Solids and Pathogenic Microorganisms
In the temperature range of 10 to 80 ºC and in a batch digester, a typical activated sludge was digested aerobically. Reaction rate constants were determined by measuring the amounts of volatiles removed from the suspended solids at different time intervals during the process. The maximum value of the reaction rate constant (0.45 d-1) occurred in the temperature...
متن کاملCharacteristics of Mesophilic Bacteria Isolated during Thermophilic Composting of Sewage Sludge.
The degree of inactivation by UV irradiation was different between vegetative cells and spores of bacteria isolated from sewage sludge composting at 60 degrees C. By using this property, a method to estimate the spore ratio of a mixture of vegetative cells and spores was presented. This UV irradiation method was applied to the estimation of the spore ratio of sewage sludge compost samples colle...
