Mature compost enhanced the harmlessness level in co-composting swine manure and carcasses in large-scale silo reactors.

This study aimed to investigate the impact of incorporating mature compost on the harmlessness and maturity level of composting from swine manure and carcasses from industrialized pig farms in continuously running large-scale silo reactor systems. The potential human or animal bacterial pathogens and core bacterial community in composting were analyzed by high-throughput sequencing of 16S rRNA gene amplicons. The results showed that the addition of mature compost in the GD group significantly increased the temperature of all depths, the accumulated temperature of compost, and the germination index (75.

Enhanced organic degradation and microbial community cooperation by inoculating Bacillus licheniformis in low temperature composting.

Microbial activity and interaction are the important driving factors in the start-up phase of food waste composting at low temperature. The aim of this study was to explore the effect of inoculating Bacillus licheniformis on the degradation of organic components and the potential microbe-driven mechanism from the aspects of organic matter degradation, enzyme activity, microbial community interaction, and microbial metabolic function. The results showed that after inoculating B.

Co-inoculation of phosphate-solubilizing bacteria and phosphate accumulating bacteria in phosphorus-enriched composting regulates phosphorus transformation by facilitating polyphosphate formation.

This study aimed to explore the impact of co-inoculating phosphate-solubilizing bacteria (PSB) and phosphate accumulating bacteria (PAB) on phosphorus forms transformation, microbial biomass phosphorus (MBP) and polyphosphate (Poly-P) accumulation, bacterial community composition in composting, using high throughput sequencing, PICRUSt 2, network analysis, structural equation model (SEM) and random forest (RF) analysis. The results demonstrated PSB-PAB co-inoculation (T1) reduced Olsen-P content (1.4 g) but had higher levels of MBP (74.

Recycling of nutrients from organic waste by advanced compost technology- A case study.

Composting is widely used as an easily operated and economical method to manage organic wastes. However, the long residence time of composting impedes the recycling nutrients from large amounts of organic wastes produced every day. In this study, the intelligent biodrying + continuous dynamic trough (IB + CDT) was created and used in China's first urban and rural organic waste treatment and utilization demonstration center in Suzhou city.
