Stabilization of different starting materials through vermicomposting in a continuous-feeding system: Changes in chemical and biological parameters
Original language description
In this study the feasibility of Eisenia andrei to digest great amount of wastes including horse manure (HM), apple pomace (AP), grape pomace (GP), and digestate (DG) was monitored through a continuous-feeding system. New layers of fresh material were gradually added to form an aged-profile of layers in order to understand the interaction between earthworms and microorganisms during vermicomposting. The decline in microbial biomass activity was related to a decrease in the earthworm activity after 240 d of vermicomposting. However, the B-glucosidase, phosphatase, protease, and o-diphenol oxidase activities were different according to the age of layers and type of processed material. The phytotoxicity test indicated that the end products of the processed AP and DG were chemically stable and enriched with nutrients in comparison with the HM and GP vermicompost. This fact indicates to stabilization in the end product, which is important for its safe disposal as an organic nutrient-rich product.
