Answer the following.
What is role of microbes in compost production?
Answer:
Compressed waste is dumped in the large pits that are dug in open spaces far away from the residential area. It is covered with layers of soil, saw dust, leafy waste and specific biochemicals. Bioreactors are mixed at some places. Microbes present in soil and other top layers decompose the waste. Completely filled pit is sealed with soil slurry. Best quality compost is formed after few days. Such land filling sites can be reused after removal of compost.
