The serious threat of accumulating wet waste

• In major cities across the world, most of the
  waste produced is organic or biodegradable waste.
  This waste needs to be properly managed to avoid
  polluting our soil and water and to ensure this,
  it should be collected and disposed of properly.
  The most common methods of managing wet waste are
  through landfill disposal or, in some cases, wet
  waste management plants.
• It is illogical to dump wet waste into landfills
  when it can be treated at home or in the
  backyard. Whereas these same wet waste generated
  can be used to make compost for gardens and
  farms. The compost created improves the quality
  of soil and helps it in retaining moisture and
  reduces the waste volume handed over to the
  government, which is already a huge amount of
  1.50 lakh metric tons daily just in India.
• Composting helps productively dispose of wet
  waste, and also provides the opportunity for
  societies to generate extra income by the sale of
  compost fertilizer. This compost for gardens and
  farms can be used as a fertilizer.

Why use food waste as fertilizers?

• Waste generated in the kitchen contains organic
  nutrients that can be used to make compost. By
  using leftovers and other food scraps, you can
  turn those stinky kitchen waste items into a
  highly organic, nutrient-rich product that can be
  used to grow vegetables or flowers. Before
  throwing away kitchen waste, be sure to determine
  if the kitchen waste can go into compost or can
  be converted into liquid fertilizer.
• Composting kitchen waste provides many benefits,
  including the elimination of unwanted waste and
  the ability to use fertilizer on your lawn.
  Composting organic waste is a great way to
  prevent it from ending up in landfills and
  releasing methane, a much more potent greenhouse
  gas than carbon dioxide gas.
• To make a nutrient-dense fertilizer, youll need
  to add some natural waste, such as grass
  clippings and lawn leaves, to your compost. You
  now know the basics of using kitchen waste as a
  garden fertilizer, but to become a true expert,
  check out the following article which covers
  composting in detail.

What is composting?

• Composting is a biological process in which
  naturally occurring microbes, bacteria and
  insects break down organic material such as
  leaves, grass clippings, and some kitchen waste
  into a soil-like product called compost. In this
  food waste and other matter go through a
  decomposition process and form an organic
  material called humus, a kind of soil improver or
  fertilizer. By composting, you can recycle your
  organic materials and turn them into valuable
  soil amendments.
• The end product of composting is nutrient-rich
  soil that can be used to grow crops, garden
  plants, and trees. The resulting decomposed
  material, which often looks like fertile garden
  soil, is called compost. In composting, food
  waste and other matter go through a decomposition
  process and form an organic material called
  humus, a kind of soil improver or fertilizer.
• Composting, known as black gold, is a natural
  process that occurs when water is mixed with
  brown materials (such as fallen leaves, twigs,
  and twigs) and green materials (such as grass
  clippings and fruit and vegetable clippings).
  Brown material provides carbon for composting,
  green material provides nitrogen, and water
  provides moisture to help break down organic
  matter.

Can you make compost at home?

• Yes, compost can be easily prepared at home.
  Kitchen waste contains essential organic
  nutrients that can be used to make liquid
  fertilizer or compost. Food waste is made up of
  organic matter that can be composted to make
  fertilizer. The compost fertilizer can be easily
  produced by using the segregated wet waste at
  home itself.
• Compost bins can be easily bought, but you can
  also easily make compost bins out of barbed wire,
  cinder blocks, bricks, and even scrap wood. You
  can buy a compost bin or make your own, be sure
  to include a removable lid so you can add more
  compostable material as you accumulate. If you
  dont have space for outdoor composting, you can
  compost material indoors using a special type of
  litter box or use an organic waste composting
  machine.

Easiest DIY way of composting at home

• To compost at home, you will need a container,
  some organic matter, and water. The container can
  be anything from a traditional compost bin to a
  simple pile in your backyard. The organic matter
  can be fruits, vegetables, grains, coffee
  filters, eggshells, or any other organic
  material. Be sure to mix in some soil or compost
  to provide the necessary microbes for composting.
  And finally, water the compost regularly to keep
  it moist. One of the key rules is adding three
  parts brown waste to one part green waste
• Pick a medium-sized earthen or plastic container
  and drill 5-6 holes on the edges (more if the
  container is bigger).
• Place newspapers and cardboard under the
  container to contain any leaks.
• Line the edges of the container with soil or
  shredded newspaper.
• Start adding alternate layers of green waste and
  brown waste. Add some materials like buttermilk
  or cow dung to accelerate this process.
• When your compost turns into brown, thick, and
  earthy-smelling dirt, its ready to use as a
  fertilizer.
• This process usually takes a long time, instead,
  you can try other alternatives such as food waste
  composting machine

What is an organic waste composting machine?

• The organic waste composting machine is a
  practical device that converts waste into manure
  in a shorter time as compared to the domestic
  methods. This machine is used to recycle all
  kinds of waste and turn it into compost that can
  be used in many different ways. The waste
  composter machine is one of the most commonly
  used machines for the production of fertilizers
  from organic waste.
• You can use the organic waste composting
  machine to ensure the quality of the organic
  fertilizer. You can then use the organic waste
  recycling machine to mix it up and finish
  composting. It generates food waste, this organic
  material can be easily broken down into
  high-quality compost. Organic waste composters
  naturally convert biodegradable waste or food
  waste into compost with the help of hemophilic
  and thermophile bacteria.

Advantages of using an organic waste composting
machine?

• There are several environmental and economic
  benefits of using a machine to compost
  organically, some of which are as follows
• The composting machine accelerates the composting
  process, thus decreasing the time required to
  prepare the compost.
• These machines can help you manage waste
  efficiently and reduce transportation costs.
• Composting can be sold to a local farmer which is
  cheaper and better than chemical fertilizer.
• Composting through this machine will help reduce
  rodents and insects

The Donts of composting at home

• The remains of meat, fish, fat, and oil should
  not be added to the compost heap outdoors.
• Avoid pet waste as it contains harmful pathogens
  that can attract animals to your compost.
• Try to put the waste in small particles and avoid
  big chunks.
• Do not use the compost bin as a dustbin and
  randomly put the waste.
• Avoid putting non-biodegradable waste in the
  container.
• Now is the perfect time to get an organic waste
  composting machine. Composting is the perfect way
  to reduce your kitchen waste and get healthy soil
  for your garden at the same time. Try it!
