Antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) present in sewage sludge pose significant environmental and public health challenges. Composting has emerged as a promising method to mitigate these risks by reducing ARGs. This review paper evaluated the current progress removal of ARGs through composting, incorporating bibliometric analysis 228 publications from January 2010 2024. highlights increasing scholarly interest this field, with notable rise since 2010. Key mechanisms identified include denaturation proteins DNA at high temperatures, adsorption antibiotics heavy metals additives like biochar, shifts microbial communities, all contributing reduction during composting. Despite findings, challenges remain achieving consistent ARG rates, addressing potential for regrowth, understanding horizontal gene transfer post-composting. suggests further research into optimizing composting conditions integrating additional treatment methods enhance minimize associated risks.
