Abstract:
... Though aerobic composting is commonly used in kitchen waste (KW) disposal, the high-oil and high-salt characteristics of KW could affect composting efficiency and lead to the land using risk of produced fertilizer. The impact of hydrothermal pretreatment (HTP) and addition of compound microbial agent (CMA) on compost maturity, greenhouse gas (GHGs) emissions and bacterial community during the kitc ...
