Abstract
Composting is a technology for recycling organic materials in order to achieve enhanced agricultural production. Composting proceeds under controlled conditions in compost heaps and pits (Müller-Sämann, 1986). Heaps should have a minimum size of 1 m3 and are suitable for more humid environments where there is potential for watering the compost. The ratio of C to N in the compost pile is important for optimizing microbial activity. In this article, we will compare and contrast various composting techniques to examine the impact of composting on the environment. The composting process is impacted by temperature, Different composting techniques have an impact on both the physical characteristics of compost and the chemical composition of compost. Additionally, it will analyze Carbon and Nitrogen ratio. Which will enable us to comprehend how composting affects the atmosphere.
