Technical developments and topical issues in UK municipal waste composting created and updated by the Compost@Enviros Consulting team.

Commercial Composting Introduction

"Waste minimisation, materials recovery, recycling, and waste pre-treatment are essential activities to minimise the impact of society on the environment."

"While the rest of Europe has been composting an ever increasing proportion of total waste production, the UK has trailed behind.

However, a new awareness brought about by the need to meet EU targets, is now bringing about a major increase in organic treatment activities throughout the UK, enabled by new government funding."

Composting is a method of waste treatment which varies in complexity, from the humble garden compost "heap", to the new breed of highly engineered municipal commercial composting facilities designed to reduce the quantity of organic waste sent to landfills and to provide a marketable product.

This website, explores new developments and topical issues, and provides commercial large scale plant information, and it also acts as a portal for those seeking further information on this rapidly developing subject.
