Principles of <strong>Compost</strong>ing<br />
1.<strong>Compost</strong>ing is an aerobic process and hence needs<br />
aeration and/or turning<br />
2.<strong>Compost</strong>ing has the potential to pollute, therefore<br />
must be protected from precipitation in wet climates<br />
3.<strong>Compost</strong>ing is a biological process and requires time<br />
4.<strong>Compost</strong>ing generates heat which kills pathogens,<br />
increases microbial activity to stabilize carbon, and<br />
evaporates moisture<br />
5.Odor potential increases with increased moisture<br />
content, decreased oxygen supply, and increasing<br />
amounts of food waste
