Disposal The final func tional element in the sohd-waste-management system is disposal. Disposal is the ultimate fate of all solid wastes, whether they are wastes collected and transported direc tly to a landfQl site, semisolid wastes (sludge) from industrial treatment plants and air-pollution-control devices, incinerator residue, compost, or other substances from various solid-waste processing plants that are of no further use. [Pg.2230]

Recovery of Riologieal Conversion Products Biological conversion produces that can be derived from solid wastes include compost, methane, various proteins and alcohols, and a variety of other intermediate organic compounds. The principal processes that have been used are reported in Table 25-64. Composting and anaerobic digestion, the two most highly developed processes, are considered further. The recovery of gas from landfills is discussed in the portion of this sec tion dealing with ultimate disposal. [Pg.2242]

Composting time can he reduced hv seeding with partially decomposed solid wastes to the extent of about 1 to 5 percent hvweight. Sewage sludge can mso he added to preparea solid wastes. [Pg.2246]

Furthermore zero waste efforts in Brazil to avoid hazardous consequences caused by additives, due to inappropriate handling of waste, are described. The city of Cantagalo is one of the first in Brazil to establish organised separation and treatment of solid wastes for reuse. The separation with proper allocation for coprocessing of the waste not suitable for recycling or composting is a laudable solution from both an environmental and economic standpoint. [Pg.470]

Maturity is an important parameter for the nutrient management of compost N availability in compost is closely related to the maturity reached during composting (Bemal et al. 1998 Griffin and Hutchinson 2007). Larsen et al. (2007) found that anaerobically digested and composted municipal solid waste immobilized N in the initial stage of decomposition. The N immobilization in the composted municipal... [Pg.333]

Silva et al. (2007) characterized a municipal solid waste compost (MSWC) based on standardized European Methods (ECN) for soil improvers and growing media and found that MSWC presents a lower C/N ratio (15) than peat and composted pine bark. [Pg.336]

The four disposal options generally cited for intentional waste products are recycle, landfill, wastewater treatment facilities and composting. Unintentional solid waste is generally referred to as Titter . [Pg.597]

One of the most commonly used parameters in soil biology is microbial biomass. The level of microbial biomass is used for assessment of the effects of contaminants in sewage sludge or compost of municipal solid waste in short-term or long-term experiments [56-59,63-69]. [Pg.23]
