dc.description | Abstract: This report reviews literature on the influence of major parameters on composting, with emphasis on temperature and explosives. Heat energy is produced by composting as a result of the microbial conversion of chemical energy to thermal energy. Hence, heat production and transfer, the influence of engineering design on compost pile temperatures, and the control and measurement of compost pile temperatures are also examined. In addition, the report includes a general discussion on composting, fundamental composting principles, available types of composting systems, applications of composting technology, and the established parameters influencing composting under various environmental conditions that may be applicable to cold regions treatment of hazardous waste. | - |
