We should also consider some rules of thumb for composting 1.Composting is optimized at moisture contents of 50-65%, and bulk densities of 600 to 700 kg per cubic meter 2.Composting will result in a 30-50% volume loss depending on process conditions 3.Static aerated systems require greater porosity to prevent preferential air pathways 4.The amount of drying depends mostly on the temperature above the composting material 5.Composting is very corrosive, use appropriate building material
Rules of thumb for composting Composting is optimized at moisture contents of 50-65% Composting at 65% moisture – 1000 tonnes per day = 325 buckets If we have to decrease to 55%, we have to add 700 tonnes of a 40% moisture content bulking agent = total of 566 buckets/ day
