| COMPOSTING |
 |
|
|
Composting is a process that has always exited in its natural state. Today, with modern technologies, this process can be accelerated and monitored efficiently.
It is an excelent way of regenerating soils impoverished by intensive farming.
Four types of waste are accepted in the composting facilities:
| > |
Waste from the wood industry (bark, shavings), the paper industry and the food industry. |
| > |
Farming waste: manure, mineral fertilisers, etc. |
| > |
Household waste (food, garden) |
| > |
Sludge from the sewage plants. |
|
|
At the composting facility, the arriving waste is sorted, broken up and disposed in piles in the appropriate conditions for the process to take place.
Composting is a process based on the decomposition of organic matter by microorganisms in the presence of oxygen. The result is a stable organic product, which is both hygienic and rich in humus. This process, which normally takes several months, can be speeded up and controlled using various techniques.

Once the composting process is finished a product called compost is obtained, which is mainly used for agriculture manure.
