Five Steps To Speed Up Composting

When composting, many people often do not get the desired results. This article will focus on five considerations and operating tips. If you are looking for ways to speed up the composting process, this article will be suitable for you.

  1. Shred compost material

Crushing and grinding compost materials as much as possible, the finer the ingredients, the faster the composting rate. After the compost material is crushed, the surface area is greatly increased, which makes it easier for microorganisms to decompose, thereby accelerating the material decomposition process. Here, SX can offer you suitable crusher for compost fertilizer.

  1. Proper mixing ratio of brown and green materials

Composting of organic fertilizer is a game of carbon to nitrogen ratio. For example, dry leaf sawdust, wood chips and other components are usually rich in carbon (C), from the color point of view, it is often similar to brown, so it is also called brown material. However, the kitchen waste, grass clippings, fresh cow dung, etc. are rich in nitrogen (N), and are often green in color, so they are called green materials.

Maintaining an appropriate mixing ratio of brown materials and green materials, as well as thorough mixing, is a prerequisite for the full decomposition of organic waste. As for the volume ratio and weight ratio of materials, scientifically speaking, it needs to be based on the carbon-nitrogen ratio of different materials. to calculate. For small composting, my suggestion is to refer to the Berkeley composting method, the basic composition of brown material: green material (non-feces): animal manure volume ratio is 1:1:1, if there is no animal manure, you can use green material Instead, brown material: green material is about 1:2. Based on this, just observe the follow-up situation and adjust. For large composts, adjustment costs are high and more precise calculations are required.

Materials of organic fertilizer composting

  1. Humidity

Moisture is essential for the smooth decomposition of compost. Too much or too little moisture both will hinder the whole process. Generally, if the water content of the compost exceeds 60%, it will cause anaerobic fermentation and stink, while the water content of less than 35% cannot be decomposed, because the microorganisms will not be able to continue their metabolic process. It is difficult to measure the water content accurately, but the basic experience of testing the water content is to take out a handful of material mixture, squeeze it hard, and finally drop a drop or two of water, that’s right.

  1. Turn the compost

Do you know how to stir-fry? If you don’t stir-fry, it’s easy to burn. The same logic applies here. Most of them won’t fully compost if you don’t turn them often. The best principle is to turn the pile every three days (Berkeley’s 18-day compost period is to turn it every other day), like peeling onions, turn the ones that were originally on the outer layer to the center of the pile, and turn the ones that were originally in the center of the pile. come outside. Turning helps improve air circulation and distributes microbes evenly throughout the pile, which speeds up decomposition. Go here for the best compost turning machine.

  1. Add microbes to your compost

Microorganisms are the protagonists of decomposing compost. They are working day and night to decompose compost materials. Therefore, when starting a new compost heap, if some good microorganisms are introduced correctly, the compost heap will be filled with a large amount of compost after a few days. These microorganisms allow the decomposition process to start quickly. So we usually add something called “compost starter”, don’t worry, it’s not a commercial commodity, it’s just a handful of old compost that has decomposed, or compost that decomposes quickly, dead fish or even Urine will do.

In general, to get an aerobic compost that decomposes quickly: chopped materials, proper material ratio, correct moisture content, keep turning, and introduce microorganisms. Just check and adjust the five aspects. If you want to know more about composting, you can visit https://fertilizerequipmentmanufacturer.com/compost-fertilizer-making-machine/

High Temperature Aerobic Composting Technology

The most commonly used treatment of livestock and poultry manure is high-temperature aerobic composting technology, which is a process of using microorganisms to decompose biodegradable organic solid waste into relatively stable humus substances under certain temperature, humidity and pH conditions. High-temperature aerobic composting is an effective way to realize the harmlessness and utilization of organic waste. Its technological process is mainly composed of pretreatment, aerobic fermentation, post-treatment and storage. Its key technologies are mainly pretreatment and aerobic fermentation.

1. Pretreatment

Compost pretreatment is mainly to adjust the moisture, pH and carbon-nitrogen ratio of compost raw materials, and to add microbial fermentation agents to compost raw materials. The initial moisture content of composting feces should generally be 40% to 60%. Too low moisture is not conducive to the growth of microorganisms, and too high moisture will block the gaps in the compost, affect ventilation, lead to anaerobic fermentation, slow down the degradation rate, and prolong Heap time. pH is a parameter to evaluate the living environment of microorganisms, and the most suitable pH in the composting process should be 5.5-8.0. In the composting process, the pH value is generally considered to be a non-important factor, because most bacteria can grow and multiply in the pH range of 5.5-8.0. The carbon and nitrogen balance of compost raw materials is a key factor for the optimal biological activity of microorganisms. The carbon-nitrogen ratio of compost raw materials is generally more suitable between 25:1 and 35:1. The carbon-nitrogen ratio is small, the temperature rises quickly, but the maximum temperature reached by the stack is low; the carbon-nitrogen ratio is large, the maximum temperature reached by the stack is high, but the temperature rises slowly. In actual production, materials such as straw, rice husk or sawdust can be used to adjust the carbon-nitrogen ratio. Composting is a biochemical degradation process in which microorganisms act on organic matter. Microorganisms are the main body of the composting process and the most critical and active components in the composting process. Adding microbial fermentation agents to compost raw materials can accelerate the decomposition and maturity of organic matter in compost raw materials and promote the release of available nitrogen in organic materials.

2. Aerobic fermentation

The aerobic fermentation composting process consists of two stages: primary fermentation and secondary fermentation. The time required for composting operation varies with the carbon-to-nitrogen ratio, humidity, weather conditions, and the type of composting operation and management. Under normal circumstances, the fermentation period is about 9 to 35 days. Primary fermentation refers to the stage from the temperature rising to the beginning of falling, which is the first stage of compost fermentation. Oxygen supply to the compost bed or fermentation unit is usually required at this stage. Oxygen is a necessary condition for the survival of aerobic microorganisms. Sufficient oxygen supply is an important condition to ensure the reproduction and development of aerobic microbial populations, and has an important impact on the composting time and the quality of the final product. SX can provide you with professional equipment for organic waste composting. It is generally believed that the volume content of air oxygen in the compost should be kept at 5% to 15%, and if it is lower than 5%, it will lead to anaerobic fermentation; if it is higher than 15%, the compost body will be cooled, resulting in the survival of a large number of pathogens. At present, the ventilation methods used by organic fertilizer equipment mainly include using power shovel or other special equipment to turn the pile, inserting a ventilating pipe with holes into the dung pile, using high-pressure fans to force ventilation and natural ventilation to supply oxygen, etc. During the primary fermentation process, the temperature of each test point in the stack should be kept at 55-65°C, not higher than 75°C, and the duration should not be less than 5 days. Secondary fermentation refers to the fermentation process in which microorganisms decompose refractory organic matter and fermentation intermediate products at a relatively low speed after the compost undergoes primary fermentation. Ventilation is usually not required at this stage, but regular compost turning should be performed.

How To Control The Temperature In Organic Fertilizer Compost

The temperature, humidity, PH value and C/N ratio of the compost during the fermentation process are important factors affecting the effect of the compost. The temperature during the fermentation process of organic fertilizer can be summarized as follows: the temperature rises steadily in the early stage, the high temperature in the middle part remains moderate, and the temperature decreases slowly in the later stage, and the temperature control directly affects the maturity of organic fertilizer in the later stage.

Today, mainly explain how to control the temperature in the organic fertilizer fermentation

The compost temperature of organic fertilizers is mainly controlled by pile turning and forced ventilation. Here, SX can provide you with processional compost turner. In the early stage of fermentation, even if the temperature of the fermentation is slow or even does not rise, the pile must be turned or ventilated after 48 hours to avoid the formation of an anaerobic environment in the high temperature stage. When the pile temperature is lower than 50°C, the pile should be turned in time (the reduction of oxygen will cause the reaction in the pile to gradually decrease, thereby reducing the temperature), increase the pile temperature, promote the decomposition of organic matter and kill harmful microorganisms. In the late stage of fermentation, once the temperature exceeds 65°C, The pile must be turned in time to prevent carbonization and ammoniation of organic matter. Click here to learn more.

During aerobic fermentation, temperature control is very important. If the temperature is too low, the maturity standard will not be met. If the temperature is too high, the nutrients in the compost will be easily lost. The temperature in the compost is within 30 cm from the outside to the inside. Therefore, the metal rod of the thermometer used to measure the temperature must be longer than 30 cm. When measuring, it must be inserted into the compost for more than 30 cm to correctly reflect the fermentation temperature of the compost. In SX, we also have compost machine with temperature monitor on sale, It is in-vessel fermentation tank.

How to read the compost temperature
1. When reading the temperature, make sure the thermometer goes deep into the pile, leave the thermometer for a while to allow the temperature to stabilize before taking the reading, then move it to a new location (including several locations at different depths from the top edge ).
2. The temperature of the pile depends mainly on the moisture content and chemical composition of the raw material components.
3. There is a certain gradient in the change of fermentation temperature. For the system with bottom ventilation, the highest temperature is about 2/3 of the bottom or higher.

Things You Need To Focus On About Windrow Composting

The windrow compost turning machine can be said to be the core equipment in the current organic fertilizer production process. It can control the fermentation temperature and the moisture in the stack during the windrow fermentation process. At present, the more advanced compost machines on the market can achieve no dead angle turning, and can complete the composting operation of all materials in one workflow.

So is there anything that needs to be paid attention to in the process of using the windrow compost turning machine to ferment organic fertilizer?

1. Pay attention to the temperature, oxygen content and moisture content in the fermentation raw materials. Temperature, oxygen and moisture are directly related to the windrow fermentation cycle of organic fertilizers and the quality of the finished product. Therefore, special attention should be paid to these three aspects when using a turning machine to ferment organic fertilizers. The purpose of the turning operation is to control the temperature, increase the oxygen content in the material, and reduce the moisture content, but it is also necessary to pay attention not to turn too frequently, so as not to affect the temperature increase in the stack. Click here for more details

2. The stacking should not be too high. When using a turner for fermentation, the width of the windrows can be determined according to the output. The height of the compost should be between 0.8 and 1.5 meters. If the height of the compost is too high, it will affect the air permeability of the raw materials, resulting in oxygen content in the stack. Insufficient amount affects fermentation.

Windrow-compost-turner-for-organic-waste

3. Pay attention to the freshness of the raw materials. If the raw materials are stored for too long, anaerobic conditions may be formed. Under the anaerobic state, the organic matter content in the raw materials will gradually decrease, which will affect the quality of the finished products. If such raw materials are used to ferment organic fertilizer, attention should be paid to adding fresh raw materials for adjustment.

4. Pay attention to the turning  time of windrow composting. When using a turning and throwing machine for fermentation, it usually takes 10-15 days for the initial fermentation to decompose. The turning and throwing time can be determined according to the temperature in the stack. It is tossed a second time, followed by a second aging and fermentation, usually 3-7 days.

5. Pay attention to the nature of the fermentation raw materials. There are many raw materials that can be used to ferment organic fertilizers, such as grass and wood fragments, crop straw, livestock and poultry manure, etc., but the carbon and nitrogen ratios in different raw materials are different, and the fermentation cycle is also different. To ensure the quality of the finished product after fermentation, targeted adjustments should be made before fermentation, which can be applied after mixing different raw materials evenly.

Tips for Choosing Compost Turner

Functions of Compost Turner

Compost turner has become the core equipment of dynamic aerobic composting in virtue of the important effects on compost and fermentation.

  • Mixing function in tempering of raw materials: in composting, it is necessary to add some minor ingredients in order to adjust the carbon nitrogen ratio, pH value and water content of raw materials. Main raw materials and minor ingredients that are put together according to certain proportion could be mixed uniformly by professional compost turner for better tempering.

  • Adjusting the temperature of raw material piles: during the working process, compost turning machine can make raw materials fully contracts and mixture with air, which can adjust the temperature of piles conveniently. Air helps aerobic microorganisms to produce fermentation heat actively, pile temperature rising. Meanwhile, if piles temperature is high, turning piles can bring the supply of fresh air, which can lower the temperature. And various beneficial microorganisms grow and breed in the adaptive temperature range.
  • Improving the permeability of ingredient piles: composting system can also crush the stick and ropy raw materials into small mass, making piles fluffy, stretchy, and with appropriate porosity, which has been an important standard to measure the performance of compost turner.

  • Adjusting the moisture of raw material piles: The water content of raw materials for fermentation should be controlled within 55%. In the fermentation process, biochemical reaction would generate new water while the consumption of microorganism to raw materials also cause water dissociate due to losing carrier. And using composting machine to turn piles could emit vapour compulsorily
  • Realizing the special requirement of composting process: For instance, compost turn could realize the requirements of crushing raw materials or mensurable shifting. Go here to know more about compost turner

Tips for Choosing Compost Turner

Whether you’re just entering the market, or are experienced with composting and looking to grow your operation, questions always arise as to what type of compost turner would best fit your needs and bottom line.The choices would narrow substantially after considering the factors, conditions and objectives of the composting operation.

Windrow-compost-turner-for-organic-waste
Windrow-compost-turner-for-organic-waste
  • When purchasing a compost turner, evaluate the equipment with regard to the safety of the operator, other site workers and bystanders. As a minimum, make sure the equipment has the CE mark.
  • The output of a compost turner is determined by its working travel speed and the size of the windrow that it can handle. Larger and more powerful machines generally have greater throughput rates because they process larger raw material piles, so readers could choose it according to the required material piles turning throughput.
  • Also consider the aisle space required by the compost turner. Self-driven compost turners need less aisle space than towed models.
  • Cost and budget, of course, also affect the choice of composting equipment. The machine with larger throughout and capacity would have higher prices, so choose one suitable for your requirement and budget.

In brief, compost turner accelerates composting in several ways. It mixes the composting mass, breaks apart particles, disturbs pockets of irregular materials and disperses moisture, nutrients and organisms. if you need it, you can check https://fertilizerequipmentmanufacturer.com/organic-fertilizer-compost-turner/ to get it.

How To Deal With Chicken Manure In Chicken Farms?

In the past, when the number of chickens was small, we have used chicken manure as farm fertilizer. With the popularization of chemical fertilizers, fewer people will use organic fertilizers. But the number and scale of chicken farms is bigger, so there are a lot of  chicken manure left.  Now it can be said to be a headache problem for all chicken farms. Then how to deal with thoes chicken manure? Click here to learn more

In the past, some people used chicken dung as a feed for cattle, pigs, etc., but it was also due to the complexity of the process. It is difficult to apply on a large scale; some people also try to dry chicken manure, but drying chicken manure consumes too much energy, the cost is too high, and it is not a sustainable development model.

After people’s long-term practice, making chicken manure into fertilizer is still a relatively feasible method. Although chicken manure is a relatively high-quality organic fertilizer, it cannot be applied directly without fermentation. When chicken manure is applied directly to the soil, it will ferment directly in the soil, and the heat generated during fermentation will affect crops. The growth of fruit seedlings will burn the roots of crops, which is called root burning.

Therefore, chicken manure fermentation is necessary. It is divided into traditional fermentation and microbial rapid fermentation.

1.The traditional fermentation
Traditional fermentation takes a long time, generally 1 to 3 months. In addition, the surrounding stench is unpleasant, mosquitoes and flies breed in large numbers, and the environmental pollution is very serious. When the chicken manure is wet, it needs to be supplemented, and more labor is required. In the fermentation process, it is necessary to use a raking machine to turn the rakes, which is a relatively primitive treatment method.
Although the equipment investment of traditional fermentation is relatively low, the cost of using traditional fermentation to process 1 ton of chicken manure is also relatively high under the current high labor costs, and traditional fermentation will be eliminated in the future.

2. Rapid microbial fermentation
Microbial rapid fermentation is to decompose chicken waste complex organic matter into simple organic matter, and also decompose organic matter into more complex organic matter. The organic matter is continuously degraded and decomposed until it is decomposed into organic fertilizer that can be used by the land. The mineralization of organic matter provides nutrients for the organisms. , produce more carbon dioxide, water and other nutrients, the decomposition speed is accelerated, and it is completely and releases a lot of heat. Therefore, the fermentation speed is very fast. Generally, it only takes about 20 days to change from chicken manure to organic fertilizer. SX can provide professional chicken manure composting system for you.

The principle of rapid microbial fermentation for chicken manure

The biomass reproduces rapidly and decomposes rapidly at a suitable temperature and in a very suitable environment. Generally in the range of 45 to 70 degrees, the generation wave of microbial growth is very fast. Kill bacteria and harmful substances in feces. SX can provide compost machine for chicken droppings to keep temperature at the required level. In a relatively closed small environment, microorganisms can continue to ferment, and chicken manure can be quickly converted into organic fertilizer only through normal feeding, production and output processes.

The chicken manure treated by the rapid fermentation of microorganisms has no odor, and the water content is only about 30%. Moreover, the rapid fermentation of microorganisms can completely treat the harmful gases and then discharge them, and there is no point in polluting the environment. Using the method of rapid fermentation of microorganisms can improve the breeding environment and improve the production efficiency.

Things You Must Know To Use Cow Dung As Organic Fertilizer

Everyone must be familiar with cows, and they are fed in many places in the countryside. The whole body of a cow is a treasure, we all know this very well. Even cow dung with a special smell has a certain use value. Many people must think it is incredible, but the fact is that after processing cow dung, it can be made into organic fertilizer. Click here for more details

How to ferment cow dung fast?

1. Dry cow dung: The lack of water in dry cow dung cannot be fermented, and sufficient water must be added. After adding enough water, pile it up into a big pile, and then cover it with a plastic sheet to ferment, so that the fermentation will be faster.

2. Fresh cow dung: If it is fresh cow dung, various auxiliary materials need to be added during fermentation to absorb the moisture in the fresh cow dung. Too much moisture can easily lead to airtightness, and microorganisms cannot produce fermentation. There are various choices of accessories, the purpose is to absorb some of the moisture in the fresh cow dung. Accessories – general choices: sawdust, straw, straw ash, carbon, etc.

What are the advantages of fermented manure as organic fertilizer?

1. The functional microorganisms in the organic fertilizer fermented with cow dung and sheep dung have an inhibitory effect on harmful pathogens. The fecal starter contains large functional beneficial microorganisms, and most of the beneficial microorganisms will be retained after the fermentation of the fecal organic fertilizer is completed. Functional microorganisms are applied into the soil together with cow dung organic fertilizer, and multiply rapidly, forming dominant populations in the crop rhizosphere soil micro-ecosystem, inhibiting the growth and reproduction of other harmful microorganisms, and even antagonizing some harmful pathogens, reducing harmful microorganisms chance of harm.

2. The cattle manure fermented organic fertilizer has more comprehensive nutrition and promotes the healthy growth of plants. It has been proved by the practice of many fecal fermentation organic fertilizer users that the crops have good plant type, enhanced disease resistance, and reduced disease occurrence after cow dung fertilizer application. For example, in the cabbage experiment, after using chicken manure organic fertilizer, the incidence of plant-specific fungus soft rot was 2%, while the incidence of using vegetable-specific fertilizer and direct use of manure was 17% and 20%, respectively.

3. Functional microbial metabolites in bovine fermented organic fertilizers can improve crop resistance. The microorganisms remaining in the cow dung organic fertilizer secrete various metabolites into the crop rhizosphere soil micro-ecosystem during the process of growth and reproduction. These metabolites can improve the photosynthesis of plants, stimulate plant growth, and improve the ability of crops to resist adverse environments, so that diseases rarely occur during the growth of crops.

Precautions for cow dung organic fertilizer fermentation

1. In summer and autumn, the film should be removed in the morning and evening for ventilation (1~2 hours). When the weather is fine, the film can be removed in the evening of the previous day and covered in the next morning. After 4-6 days of composting, the composting temperature can rise to 60-70°C. After 10 days of composting, the compost can be turned over once, and the compost can be fully cooked after 20 days of composting, the fertilizer content will be improved, and pests will be eliminated.

2. Dry cow dung and fresh cow dung are fermented differently, so everyone needs to pay attention to. The method of making organic fertilizer from cow dung is actually not difficult. It requires fermentation. In the process of fermentation, some auxiliary materials need to be added in it, and then it can be used after a week to half a month.

Managing Manure – Some Good Sense Strategies

For people linked to farming, even on a hobby basis dealing with manure is definitely an ongoing challenge. Manure tends to produce quickly. Some statistics. A horse is accountable for about 50 pounds of waste per day. A cow can produce around 92 pounds as well as a hog just under ten pounds. A sheep provides 4 pounds and a hen an astonishing 1/4 pound. That’s a lot to take care of should you haven’t got a well-thought-out strategy.

But manure management can be simpler than many individuals think. Actually, manure is capable of doing your farming efforts the field of good. A proper strategy will even avoid any injury to the environment – and be sure that your neighbors are not going to check out the authorities concerning the smell. To ensure that strategy simply makes sense.

Possibly the simplest way of disposal of manure in swine production is also probably the most cost-effective. This is on pasture manure management. By fencing in particular elements of the farming operation – and rotating animals to various pastures the farmer can be sure that the manure is managed. Furthermore, it has immense benefits for soil health. This, in trun enables more robust plants. The fundamental systems of such healthy plants support the soil together, which, therefore prevents manure tainted runoff into rivers and groundwater sources. However, it must be noted that livestock waste management is extremely important. Animals must not be allowed entry to natural water sources.

Another good strategy for managing manure is to take part in composting. Compost is far more nutritious than raw manure and also aids in killing off soil parasites and weed seeds. In addition, it significantly reduces odors. Compost can also be reduced in soluble salts – so will not likely ‘burn’ plants. There are several composting technology for organic waste to create nutritious and pH-neutral compost. Including hot, warm, and cold, and also by using three-bin units or even the classic-fashioned static piles. Pigs and chickens released in to a composting area also help to turn within the compost.

Whatever your choice as to how you might be employing your compost there remains the question of how to speed up composting process. Simply allowing it to stack up around the open ground is actually a solution that will create more problems than it solves. you will find the ongoing problem of run-off along with the attendant pollution of groundwater and water.

The best solution for storage is always to create a sealed large compost turners tank so that rainwater cannot run off. A floor of your area ought to be lined with gravel or stone dust. It might be preferable to simply include a roof to the reinforced containment area if the manure will probably be stored for too long amounts of time. It needs to be noted that stockpiling is not going to offer the same benefits as composting and should ideally just be an interim solution prior to the manure is spread or maybe composted.

A solid strategy for working with manure has many different benefits – including harnessing the manure for the production of compost and using it to encourage more robust and healthier plant growth. It should be one of several foundations of proper farming practice.
