Each year agricultural effluents, industrial residues, and industrial accidents contaminate surface waters, soils, air, streams, and reservoirs. A new compost technology, known as compost bioremediation, is currently being used to restore contaminated soils, manage stormwater, control odors, and degrade volatile organic compounds.
Innovative Uses of Compost: Disease Control For Plants and Animals

ASCII Text File [13 KB]
Compost technology is a valuable tool already being used to increase yields by farmers interested in sustainable agriculture. Now, professional growers are discovering that compost-enriched soil can also help suppress diseases and ward off pests. These beneficial uses of compost can help growers save money, reduce their use of pesticides, and conserve natural resources. In the poultry industry, composting has also become a cost-effective method of mortality management. It destroys disease organisms and creates a nutrient-rich product that can be used or sold.

Why Compost?
Recycling the organic waste of a household into compost allows us to return badly needed organic matter to the soil. In this way, we participate in nature's cycle, and cut down on garbage going into burgeoning landfills.
Why Compost With Worms?
Worm composting is a method for recycling food waste into a rich, dark, earth-smelling soil conditioner. The great advantage of worm composting is that this can be done indoors and outdoors, thus allowing year round composting. It also provides apartment dwellers with a means of composting. In a nutshell, worm compost is made in a container filled with moistened bedding and redworms. Add your food waste for a period of time, and the worms and micro-organisms will eventually convert the entire contents into rich compost. The following information is based on the experiences of a network of worm composters linked to City Farmer, Vancouver, and the excellent and practical book: Worms Eat My Garbage by Mary Appelhof.

Composting: Getting down to paydirt
Composting is easy. You don't need any special knowledge or equipment, and it takes only a little extra effort to collect your wastes and establish an active compost pile. Once you've got it going, it just about takes care of itself.
How composting works:
In nature, organic wastes are broken down through a combination of biological and chemical processes. Biological agents like worms, insects, fungi, bacteria and other micro-organisms "chew up" the materials, which are further transformed by oxidation (exposure to air), reduction and hydrolysis (exposure to water).
Composting recipe:
For successful composting, you need:

COMPOSTING PROCESS
Composting is a natural biological process, carried out under controlled aerobic conditions (requires oxygen). In this process, various microorganisms, including bacteria and fungi, break down organic matter into simpler substances. The effectiveness of the composting process is dependent upon the environmental conditions present within the composting system i.e. oxygen, temperature, moisture, material disturbance, organic matter and the size and activity of microbial populations. Composting is not a mysterious or complicated process. Natural recycling (composting) occurs on a continuous basis in the natural environment. Organic matter is metabolized by microorganisms and consumed by invertebrates. The resulting nutrients are returned to the soil to support plant growth.

Worm Composting
(Vermiculture)
Introduction
Many municipalities prefer that food wastes NOT be composted in the backyard compost pile. This restriction helps with issues of pests and odors. A popular way to compost food wastes and small amounts of paper is a worm compost bin. Red worms (commonly called red wigglers) and brown-nose worms can be used to compost food scraps and paper. Worm compost bins have been called organic garbage disposals. The worms live in paper bedding into which kitchen scraps are placed. They eat both the paper and the kitchen scraps and excrete worm castings. Castings are far more potent than compost made from a backyard pile. There are more nutrients in castings, and they are in a form that makes them even more readily available to vegetation. People often question why this process doesn't smell. It is actually the rotting portions of decaying food that stink. In worm composting, the worms eat the rotting portion. The fresh portion is then exposed to the air and begins to rot. The worms eat it as it rots. As long as you don't put in too much food for the worms, they will eat the food as it rots. Therefore, there is no rotting food left to create an odor. (If your bin smells, you are providing the wrong kinds of food or too much food.) Use the following links to access complete instructions on setting up and operating a worm compost bin:
The Worm Bin
You can either build a bin or buy one.

Composting
Overview Composting is the controlled decomposition of organic materials, such as leaves, grass, and food scraps, by microorganisms. The result of this decomposition process is compost, a crumbly, earthy-smelling, soil-like material. Yard trimmings and food scraps make up about 25 percent of the waste U.S. households generate, so composting can greatly reduce the amount of waste that ends up in landfills or incinerators. What to Put in the Mix These are some items that can be put in a composting bin. Some food products should not be included because they can attract pests or compromise the quality of the compost. This list is not meant to be all inclusive Materials to Include
  • Fruit and vegetable
    scraps
    Egg shells
    Coffee grounds
    with filters
    Tea bags
    Fireplace ash
    Leaves
    Grass
    Yard clippings
    Vacuum cleaner lint Wool and cotton rags Sawdust Nonrecyclable paper
Materials to Exclude
  • Meats Dairy foods Fats Oils (including peanut butter and mayonnaise) Grease Pet excrement Fish scraps Diseased plants

USCC 13th ANNUAL CONFERENCE
Join us at the USCC Composting Council’s 13th Annual Conference and Trade Show
DEEP IN THE HEART OF TEXAS!
January 23-26, 2005 at the Crowne Plaza Riverwalk in San Antonio, TX

The state of Texas has demonstrated innovative and unequaled support of the use of compost products. The TX Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) and the TX DOT have worked together to require the use of USCC, STA compost on all TX DOT landscape projects. In addition, 27 of the 71 STA members are based in Texas. The USCC can’t think of a better way to say “thank you” than to host our 2005 annual conference in TX.
The Riverwalk area of San Antonio is a nationally recognized attraction with lots of sightseeing and shopping opportunities. “Remember the Alamo” can be easily accessed from the conference hotel.
We’ve already marked our calendars and hope that you have too! Watch the web site for additional information. The USCC is a trade and professional organization promoting compost. We provide a unified voice for the growing composting industry. The US Composting Council is involved in research, public education, composting and compost standards, expansion of compost markets and the enlistment of public support.
