Because forced aeration mechanically moves fresh oxygen -rich air up through the composting pile, evenly and at pre -determined intervals, optimum aerobic conditions are maintained throughout the duration of the composting process. Forced aeration removes one of the limiting factors associated with the traditional static pile composting process — the lack of oxygen within the pile — and results in maximum breakdown of the material in a minimum of time. During the process, bacteria, fungi and other microorganisms break down organic materials to a stable mixture called compost while consuming oxygen and releasing heat, water, and carbon dioxide (CO2). The finished compost resembles humus and can be used as a soil amendment. Composting reduces the volume of the parent materials and pathogens are destroyed if the process is controlled properly. All disease -causing organisms are subjected to at least three adverse conditions during composting: heat, toxicity caused by products of decomposition, and microbial antagonism. Heat generated in the composting process is the primary determinant studied as the in -activator of disease -causing organisms. Heat is also the performance indicator of microbial activity within the composting pile. An extended period of heat (minimum of 5 consecutive days) in the desired range (above 140°F) achieved during composting is essential for the destruction of most pathogens. With proper management, the forced aeration composting process will produce temperatures consistently higher than the typical static pile composting pile as noted earlier. Higher temperatures translate into higher microbial activity, reduced retention time in each bin and better pathogen reduction. Normal temperatures for forced aeration are typically in the range of 140OF to 150OF for 10 or more consecutive days. The effect of pH and the action of other bacteria and fungi on the destruction of disease -causing organisms is still largely unknown. Only minimal research has been done with disease -causing organisms of animals with regard to the ability of the composting process to destroy them. A recent review of chemical and microbial hazards to humans from urban waste composting facilities indicates that the assumption that all disease -causing organisms are killed by composting may be faulty. Some important procedures to minimize risk include the following. Entry apron to the compost bins and the first 3' of the dry storage (curing area) should be cleared of any spillage following loading and transporting material Prevent rodents and scavenging animals from digging in 1s' stage compost bins and spreading the contaminated material. o Following recommendations for sawdust/ litter covering will provide a barrier to most pests. o Fencing may be necessary if proper coverage is not maintained and animals have gained access. o Fly infestation problems are minimized with appropriate bin temperature and a sawdust/compost cover over the food waste and capping the bin with 3-4 inches of clean sawdust. All living organism require carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, hydrogen, and many other elements to survive. Any requirement that is not met will limit the growth, reproduction, and ultimate survival of the organism. Composting is focused on understanding and meeting the needs of the organisms that are actually doing the composting. While composting occurs naturally, the process requires proper conditions to occur rapidly, minimize odor generation, and prevent nuisance problems. Over 20 controllable factors affect composting. Table 1 lists eight of those factors and acceptable ranges to aim for when composting. Of these factors, the four major factors to be controlled in the composting process are the material mix (nutrient balance), water content, porosity or aeration, and temperature. Table 1. Guidelines for composting- major factors. Nutrient balance, C/N Water Content Particle Size Porosity Bulk Density pH Oxygen Concentration Temperature Material Mix (C/N) Reasonable Range Preferred Range 25:1 - 40:1 45-65% w.b. 0.8-1.2 cm (1/8-1/2 inch) 30-50% <640 kg/m3 (1100lb/yd3) 5.8-9.0 >5% (110-155°F) 30:1 — 35:1 50-60% w. b. Depends on Material 35-45% 6.5-8.0 > 10% (140-150°F) The proper composting mixture requires both carbon and nitrogen at the proper Carbon/Nitrogen ratio. A proper C/N ratio will result in a composting process that generates little odor, yet offers an environment where microorganisms can flourish. Generally an initial C/N ratio that is 25:1 to 40:1 is satisfactory. Most "compostable" animal materials have a C/N ratio that is too low to compost properly on their own, usually below 10:1. In order to compost these materials, amendments that contain high levels of carbon must be added. Plant materials such as wood chips, peanut hulls, sawdust and shavings have a high C/N ratio and are ideal for composting. Water Content & Porosity Like all living things, microorganisms need water. To encourage their growth and rapid composting, water content of the mixture should be 50 to 60% (wet basis). It is critical to the process that this moisture content be maintained from the very beginning and throughout the composting process. The forced aeration floor design compensates for excess moisture by allowing it to leach out of the materials and drain to the front and back of each bin then draining to a storage tank, where it is stored and aerated and returned to newly built piles as the primary source of moisture. Determining the level of moisture present in each pile is not as complicated as one might think. Take a small sample of material from each pile. If the mixture feels moist, and when a handful is squeezed only one. or two drops of moisture is released, the mixture has adequate water content. Low moisture content significantly slows down the composting process. Since the bins are always covered, leachate in the initial stages and clean water in second stage may need to be added to avoid process inhibition. Microorganisms that are encouraged to grow in a compost pile are aerobic, or require oxygen. Open spaces (porosity) must be maintained to allow air to penetrate and move through the pile providing oxygen. Approximately 25% of the pile volume should be small open spaces. The addition of forced aeration greatly improves the availability of fresh oxygen for microbial activity. The rule of thumb for controlling the amount of aeration in this particular system is approximately 3-5 minutes per bin per hour. A control panel has been provided to make selecting and directing aeration to the bins extremely simple. Since each bin is aerated separately, simply switch the on/off switch to the "On" position, and set the aeration cycle time for that bin to the desired number of minutes, from one to six. Temperature "The typical static pile composting process will generate and regulate its own temperature. As the pile heats up, warm air within the mixture will rise and move out of the pile, while fresh air will be drawn in to replace it. This process exhausts CO2 created in the pile, and maintains an aerobic environment for the microorganisms." By forcing fresh air up through the pile, exhausting the CO2, aerobic environments can be maintained even in the denser environments. Forced aeration composting allows the user to somewhat regulate temperature by controlling the amount of aeration, generating greater microbial activity and therefore higher processing temperatures. Temperatures measured less than 12" from the wall will reveal a 10 to 20 degree drop from those further than 12" away from a wall surface. The NC Dept. of Environment and Natural Resources, Division of Waste Management, Solid Waste Division policy requires a type III facility to meet a minimum of 131 OF for three consecutive days. In addition, type III facilities must maintain temperatures about 1040F with an average of at least 1130F for 11 consecutive days following. With forced aeration composting you should target a minimum of 15 days above 150OF therefore exceeding the above mentioned policy. You are required to make the composting operation available for inspection by any NCDENR's Officer. All records of material composted and temperature records must be available. Sawdust Cover on top Premix of C:N �- Food Waste Biofilter Zones 12" Sawdust Filter on Floor The above figure is a cross section of the compost bin. The mixing process is critical to getting consistent decomposition as fast as possible. Mixing of the food waste with a very wet wood chip mix allows the process to begin immediately after the filling of the bins takes place. The pile is not turned until the material has finished the first phase of composting where required temperatures are met. The decomposition process in static pile composting typically is anaerobic (lacking oxygen) in and around the food waste, which generates odors in turning. Forced aeration minimizes this anaerobic zone by continually purging CO2 and replacing it with fresh oxygen -rich ambient air. Surrounding the food waste with a high carbon source and frequently aerating the compost pile has the potential to accelerate the process significantly faster than static pile composting, up to three times faster. For food waste, this period is generally 20 days after the bin is filled and capped off. After this time the compost is either moved to an area for curing, or reused back in the process as a mix or cover. Managing the Composting of Food waste Practices of composting food waste are very simple. The following is recommended as a guide for properly operating the composter. 1. Inspect each aeration tube for the correct connection, 2. Construct a base from sawdust or acceptable amendment at least 12" thick. This base will filter out liquids that are present in the food waste. It also permits air movement and microbial action underneath the first layer of food waste. With the sloped floor, excess leachate will be drained and captured for recirculation back into the pile. If liquids begin to leach out of the pile under the front door, spread sawdust around the pile to absorb the liquids, and check the drains in the front of the bins.. 3. Then place a mixture of food waste and bulk on the mix. This mixture should be dumped out and spread evenly across the base. A rake or other long handled tool may be needed to spread the food waste evenly out on the sawdust bed. Always add four to six inches of mix to the top of each pile in order to minimize odors and vectors as well as providing an absorbing layer for the next addition of waste. After the mixture is added to the bin, turn the control switch for that bin to the "On" position and set the timing for 2 minutes. This aeration will also accelerate the growth of microbes while the bin is being filled. 4. Once the day's food waste has been added to the bin, add leachate by spraying or soaking the mix with the accumulated leachate. This step is absolutely critical to getting the process working properly. It is almost impossible to add moisture to a pile after it is built, so do it now. 5. Once the bin is completely filed, cover the pile with at least 6" of pure sawdust or other carbon -rich source. This cover acts as the Biofilter for odor control around the pile and insulates the pile to retain heat. Odors may be released when an inadequate cover is used or when it is too dry. The released odors may also attract scavenging animals and pets to the pile. The Biofilter can be increased to 1-foot if necessary. Critical do not add leachate to the top of the pile. Add clean water to the top of the bin only. This will minimize flies and other vectors and varmints and will also avoid contamination once entered into the temperature requirement process. 6. Increase the timing for that bin to the maximum 6 minutes. This aeration cycle time can be adjusted down once the material has reached the desired 150OF processing window. Data Collection and Record Keeping In order to monitor the composting process, it is necessary to measure and record temperatures of the compost pile. Pathogen kill can be monitored by measuring the internal pile temperature. Progress of the pile can also be surveyed from temperature records. Temperatures should be taken at several places in the bin that represent the entire pile; usually one along the back of the bin, one in the middle of the bin, and one at the front of the bin. Temperature recording can be done easily with a three ft. probe thermometer (1/4 inch probe diameter is recommended). Data recorded while loading the bin should include date and the total estimated weight added each day. Once the bin is completely filled, record the internal temperature of the pile at three locations; near the back, near the middle, and near the front, and calculate the average for that bin on that day. In order to properly manage the composting facility and to meet the permitting requirements stated earlier, daily temperature records must be kept for each bin. This is absolutely critical in the first several weeks of the compost process. Take as many readings as necessary to insure that the pile is reaching temperatures throughout. This can be extremely helpful in identifying problems that may occur during start-up of each bin. Typically, once the process is running, checking temperatures and adding moisture is about all that is required. Representative samples are taken at six month intervals and examined for fecal coliform by a testing laboratory and a waste analysis is performed by NCDA and CS. Manmade inert tests are performed by in-house personnel. Recordkeeping shall conform to provisions as detailed in 1408 (b) and (c). Land Application of Compost First and foremost, follow an approved nutrient management plan. Test compost material for carbon, nitrogen, moisture, and pH if compost fails to reach the proper temperature or if odor problems develop. The finished compost material should be periodically tested for constituents that could cause plant phytotoxicity as the result of application to crops. Compost made from dead animal or animal parts should be tested for indicator pathogens such as E. coli and salmonella. The disposal of the compost shall adhere to all federal, state, and local laws, rules, and regulations. It is the responsibility of the producer to properly manage the facility on a daily basis. Pest Management Animals digging into the compost can be a problem, although it is less likely in forced aerated concrete bins with high temperatures. Measures must be taken if this occurs to maintain bio-security and a positive public perception. The easiest way to prevent this from occurring is to maintain the necessary minimum cover (4-6 inches sawdust/litter mix used to cover all food waste). NEVER ALLOW FOOD WASTE TO BE EXPOSED. Maintenance Daily • Clear the front drain trough of debris to allow for optimum flow to the drain. • Entry apron to the compost bins and the first 3' of the dry storage (curing area) should be cleared of any spillage following loading and transporting material Weekly • flush leachate trunk line's front and rear by inserting your flexible hose into the control room side cleanouts and turn on for 1 minute per line. If blockages do occur unstop by using garden hose flowing upstream from the lower cleanout. If blockage still remains you might need to use a drainage snake to cut through the clog. • Weekly or after a large rain check the level of the leachate tank. If the facility cannot handle the excess volume the tank will need to be pumped by a septic pumping company. Monthly • The regenerative blower is equipped with an inlet filter that should be cleaned monthly and replaced at least annually. Because there are few moving parts in the air blower, reliability has been excellent. After five years it is recommended that the blowers be returned to Advanced Composting for credit on a refurbished unit. Contact Advanced Composting @ 1-828-230-1729 for replacement filters When Emptying the bin • Inspect each compost bin unit when it is empty. Inspect the tubes, and the aeration holes. These holes must be open in order to provide uniform and even distribution of the aeration. The pipes should be cleaned as needed. Check the bin pressure and be sure that it is in the acceptable operating range of 20"-60" PSI before refilling. All of the plastic components of the system are common plumbing supplies and are conveniently carried by most large home improvement retailers. Bi-Annually or as Needed • Patch concrete floors, curbs, or gravel areas as necessary to assure proper operation and integrity. • Examine roofed structures for structural integrity and leaks. • Maintain a dense stand of vegetation around the composting facility year round. Emergency Disposal of Food Waste It is critical that you make specific plans for waste disposal in the event of an emergency. Depending on the type and degree of emergency, there are several alternatives. Contact your local NRCS office for recommendations when composting is the selected alternative. Emergency Management Plan If the Compost Facility Coordinator cannot be reached in the event of an emergency, the following will serve as contacts for this facility: Grant Powers, Recycling Coordinator 828-262-7296 powerscg(a3appstate.edu Jennifer Maxwell, Sustainability Program Specialist 828-262-2667 maxwelljb(a1appstate.edu Greg Taylor, Director of Campus Services 828-262-3190 x172 taylorgm(a-)appstate.edu Chandler Cummins, Advanced Composting Technologies 828-665-8600 cc wadvancedcompostinca.com L L -1 Lfi'RO Advanced Composting WASTE TECHNOLOGIES sustain.appstate.®du General Operating Procedures: • Be sure aeration pipes are connected and there are no air leaks at the pipe connections. • Be sure small holes in pipes are turned up and are clean. • Check bins operating pressure to ensure it is between 20- 60 PSI before filling. • If pressures are higher then take the pipes apart and clean with a pressure washer; recheck pressure to be sure it is in the 20-60 PSI range. Filling each bin with food waste: • Place 12" sawdust or wood chip filter on floor of bin that will be receiving food waste. Place a mixturer of food waste and bulk on the filter in the back of the bin. • Keep the food waste at least 6" from walls. Cover food waste with 3-4" of the wood chip mixture keeping a level bed to receive the next mixture of food waste. Turn air on to 2 minutes. • Continue building and build it up to the height of the 1st run. Then go back and finish out the 1 st run. • Continue terracing to the front using the split doors to finish filling the bin. Up the air to 3 minutes when the bin is 3/ full and then to 4 minutes when full. ® Wet the bin during filling to maintain 50% moisture and wet as needed before you place a clean 341 cap of sawdust on the bin to reduce flies. • Once a week flush leachate trunk line's front and rear by inserting your flexible hose into the control room side cleanouts and turn on for 1 minute per line. Monitor and record temperatures daily after the bin is filled and capped for 15-20 Days. Our goal is to have temperatures above 150 degrees for the whole time. Call ACT personnel if temperatures are not reached for assistance. • Leave food waste in this stage so that the temperature requirements are met: Above 131 degrees for three consecutive days followed by an additional 11 consecutive days above 104 degrees with an average of at least 113 degrees. • Empty the bin and move the material to curing for 180 days or reuse back in the process as a layering mix or cover. • Land -apply the cured compost according to your nutrient management plan.
