Abstract
Composting for Municipalities: Planning and Design Considerations provides guidance in the planning, design, and operation of municipal composting facilities, both large and small. The book is a useful guide for policy makers and planners, facility operators and technicians, consultants and designers, regulators and enforcement agencies, and other community stakeholders wishing to learn the basic principles and current practices of composting. Composting for Municipalities can be adopted as a home-study guide or as a textbook for use in classes or workshops. This book covers only aerobic composting systems (those that require oxygen).
