Effect of Moisture Content and Aeration on Composting of Tea Waste

The effect of moisture content (MC) and aeration rate on composting of tea waste was determined in this research. A self heating reactor (18 l) was used in this experiment. Aeration rate were 0.5; 1.0 and 1.5 l/min.dm. The high moisture content (80%) shows the slower composting rate than the low m...

description The effect of moisture content (MC) and aeration rate on composting of tea waste was determined in this research. A self heating reactor (18 l) was used in this experiment. Aeration rate were 0.5; 1.0 and 1.5 l/min.dm. The high moisture content (80%) shows the slower composting rate than the low moisture content (60%). The C/N ratio of the final compost of 80% and 60% are 17 and 15, respectively. Degradation of compost with 60% MC is 20% higher than compost of 80% MC. At this range of aeration, moisture content has the most important factor to initiate the good composting process
