Aerobic composting: studies on variation in Parameters by Thumboormuzhi model

摘要

In the current investigation, organic waste is treated aerobically using the Thumboormuzhi model. Studies are carried out on variation of parameters like pH, moisture content, carbon -nitrogen ratio, phosphorous content, potassium content, sodium content and nitrogen content at the end of 60th day, 70* day, 80* day and the 90* day. Results revealed that, the treating organic waste effectively to produce organic manure which is rich in nutrients and can be used as manure to plants. As a result, the problem caused due to the unscientific handling of organic wastes is reduced.
