ABSTRACT
Composting is an important process of solid waste management and it can be used for treatment of a variety of different wastes (green waste, household waste, sewage sludge and more) (Duquenne et al., 2012). This is a natural self-heating process involving the biological degradation of organic matter under aerobic conditions. Installations for composting vary greatly in size (from domestic to large-scale facilities), degree of enclosure (open, partially enclosed, enclosed facilities), design (static windrow systems, aerated static piles, bioreactors, etc.) and the type of wastes composted (Swan et al., 2003).
