Compost
The term compost covers a wide range of products from a variety of different sources. In general compost can originate from livestock and poultry waste; wood waste, yard waste, industrial biomass, municipal solid waste, mixed paper, kitchen and garden waste, commercial organic waste, brewery and other biosolids.
Foundation Analytical Laboratory works with consultants and waste generators to test composted material for chemical and physical characteristics that may influence its suitability for various uses. Tests cover the amount of such constituents as nitrogen, moisture, nutrients, and metals that are present. From this, an optimum composting formulation can be developed which when properly monitored with suitable adjustments made during the composting process can maximize the material’s stability.
