Abstract

The objective of this study was to find the content of macro nutrients and micro household waste which is varied with rice hulls in bio composter or bioreactor garden bag. The windrow system composting method was used in this study. Household organic waste material act ed as a source of nitrogen and rice hulls as a carbon source or as a bulking agent so that C: N ratio of material meets the composting requirements. Analysis results of several parameters of household organic waste material and rice hulls i.e.moisture content (%): 76. 29 and 9.48, organic matter (%): 98.17 and 77.92, pH: 4.32 and 6.56, Salinity (mS / cm):4.03 and 0.21, C: N ratio: 15.72 and 112.57, total N (%): 0.87 and 3.81, fat content (% BB): 13.27 and 9.48, vitamin C (mg /100 g):65.11 and 92.99 for each ingredient respectively. Analysis of macro and micro nutrient parameters of organic household waste and rice husk material showed that each material was suitable for composting. The temperature observed from day 2 to day 14. Thermophilic phase was achieved on the 2nd day of com posting which the temperature reached 43 OC after the acclimation process. The 55 OC of optimum temperature achieved ed on the day 9 ~10 of composting and then decreased the temperature over the next day, the observations made for 14 days to see the dynamics of temperature changes from the thermophilic stage to the mesophilic stage
