With increases in global population and urbanization, the production of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) is growing rapidly, thus contributing to social environmental concerns for sustainable waste management. This study addresses research gap optimizing composting, hypothesizing that integrating best practices recent innovations can enhance efficiency process. Data were collected through a systematic review existing literature using Google Scholar Scopus databases. The provides an overview municipal organic outlining its processes, benefits, challenges with aim identifying key area further improvement possibilities adopting technological innovations. analysis emphasized advances as microbial inoculants or in-vessel composting have greatly improved quality resulting compost. However, several remain, including managing contaminants such heavy metals microplastics, ensuring compost safety addressing socioeconomic barriers prevent widespread adoption. Moreover, process optimization, economic evaluation, well political public involvement are essential unlock whole potential systems.

Vermifiltration and sustainable agriculture: unveiling the soil health-boosting potential of liquid waste vermicompost

Frontiers in Sustainable Food Systems, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 8

Vermifiltration is a promising technique that can help recover nutrients from wastewater for further use in agriculture. We conducted field experiment to assess the effectiveness of vermicompost produced vermifiltration liquid waste (manure and food production waste) how it affect soil health yield squash crop. tested effect three rates (low, medium, high) applied over two consecutive years measured physical, chemical, biological indicators, yield, nutritional status. The results showed vermicompost, especially at high rate, increased total carbon, nitrogen, potentially mineralizable particulate organic matter, as well activity C-N-P cycling enzymes, compared control with only inorganic fertilization. crop remained stable, while value improved levels boron copper treated increased. These findings indicate an improvement after vermicompost. Overall, strongly support using this type sustainable management approach recycle enhance health.

Evolution of Biogenic Nitrogen from Digestates for Lettuce Fertilization and the Effect on the Bacterial Community

Horticulturae, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 10(7), С. 685 - 685

Among the many inputs, nitrogen fertilizers are main yield-limiting factor in agriculture. Liquid fractions of digestates can be a most promising substitute to synthetic fertilizers, using little energy turn waste into valuable fertilizers. In this study, efficacy five from different origin (C, cow slurry; P, pig PCE, slurry, crops; SS, sewage sludge; W, organic fraction municipal waste) were assessed as for cultivation Lactuca sativa L., compared traditional mineral fertilization. Digestates showed results yield and chemical parameters overall comparable fertilizer. Analysis evolution that higher nitrates substrates than at earlier stages. Another topic investigated study is effect on bacterial populations growth substrate, through quantification sequencing 16S gene. These varied based digestate considered, but, general, an increase biodiversity could linked use digestates. suggest might become alternative contributing circular economy reduction.
