Aerobic composting is a process in which microorganisms degrade organic matter in the raw materials under aerobic conditions to produce humus. This process not only eliminates pathogens present in the feedstock but also removes odorous gases and other harmful substances, serving as an important approach for the reduction, harmlessness, and resource recovery of organic waste. This chapter introduces three typical aerobic composting technologies: traditional aerobic composting, inoculant-enhanced composting, and rapid thermophilic composting. It analyzes the classification and transformation of organic carbon components during aerobic composting, with emphasis on the pathways of organic carbon transformation and the succession patterns of microbial communities in food waste under different aerobic composting processes.

摘要

Aerobic composting is a process in which microorganisms degrade organic matter in the raw materials under aerobic conditions to produce humus. This process not only eliminates pathogens present in the feedstock but also removes odorous gases and other harmful substances, serving as an important approach for the reduction, harmlessness, and resource recovery of organic waste. This chapter introduces three typical aerobic composting technologies: traditional aerobic composting, inoculant-enhanced composting, and rapid thermophilic composting. It analyzes the classification and transformation of organic carbon components during aerobic composting, with emphasis on the pathways of organic carbon transformation and the succession patterns of microbial communities in food waste under different aerobic composting processes.
