Composting Waste Treatment

This refers to the process of converting organic waste materials into nutrient-rich compost. Once the organic waste has been collected, separated, and prepped it will be placed into a controlled environment such as a compost bin. During its time in the compost bin the microorganisms will break down the organic waste into simpler compounds. This decomposition process generates heat, and as the waste materials break down, they transform into nutrient-rich compost. Composting waste treatment is an effective method to recycle organic waste and contribute to a more circular and environmentally friendly economy.
