摘要:The composting of rice straw ash with food waste and addition of effective microorganisms as an additive has been investigated by using the laboratory-scale of bin composter reactor at different aeration rates of 0.4, 0.6 and 0.8L/min.kg with an initial C:N ratio 30 of compost mixture. The physicochemical parameters were monitored for pH, temperature, C:N ratio and phtotoxicity in term of germination index during 30 days of composting period. The results showed the longest phase of thermophilic temperature, minimum C:N ratio and the maximum GI obtained at compost pile aerated with 0.6Lmin.kg compared to the other two aeration rate of 0.4L/min.kg and 0.8L/min.kg. In term of pH for all three treatments of compost pile, the values obtained are within a range that is acceptable for the matured compost.
