Summary of Composting
� Composting is “controlled” decomposition
� Weight and volume reduction…but requires effort!
� Nitrogen: what you want to get rid of
� Carbon: amendment materials to mix with nitrogen
� Must balance C:N, moisture, oxygen
� Monitor temperature, airspace, density
� Compost is “done” when temperature doesn’t rise after turning

What is anaerobic digestion?
� Methanogenic and acidogenic breakdown of
complex organics
� Oxidation of organic or inorganic compounds in the absence of oxygen
� Produces biogas and less biomass than aerobic digestion
