Olive-mill Waste Compost as a Growth Medium Component for Foliage Potted Plants
Research was carried out to evaluate composted olive-mill waste as a peat substitute in foliage potted plant production. Rooted cuttings of Codiaeum variegatum (L.) A. Juss and Syngonium podophyllum Schott were grown for 5 months and Ficus benjamina L. for 10 months in media containing olive-mill waste compost (OWC), sphagnum peat and perlite in 1:3:4, 1:1:2, and 3:1:4 ratio (by volume), respec...
متن کاملMunicipal Solid Waste Compost Utilization in Greenhouse- Cultivated Tomato
The effects of a municipal solid waste compost (MSWC) (from Villarrasa-HuelvaSpain) on growth, yield and mineral composition of tomato plants (Lycopersicon esculentum Miller, cv. Genaro) were studied. Results were compared with those observed both without the application of organic matter (Control) and with the app1ication of a commercial compost AC (made from sheep manure). Soils of the three ...
متن کاملNitrogen management considerations for landspreading municipal solid waste compost.
Many municipalities have examined composting as an alternative to landfilling for the management of organic solid waste materials. Ultimately these materials will be land-applied and therefore some knowledge of nutrient availability will be necessary to optimize crop yield and minimize environmental risk. Field studies were conducted in 1993 and 1994 on a silt loam and a loamy sand soil in Wisc...
متن کاملStrategies for Separating Contaminants from Municipal Solid Waste Compost
separation approaches affect organic contaminant levels. Thus, this fact sheet will focus primarily on heavy metal contaminants. Those metals of greatest concern in compost—cadmium, mercury, and lead—can be harmful to animals and humans at relatively low concentrations and tend to accumulate in soil, plants, and animals. For most of these potentially harmful metals, the levels in MSW composts a...
متن کاملThe Effect of Vermicomposting Process on Organic Matter of Cattle Manure Compost and Municipal Solid Waste Compost
Background & Aims of the Study: Considering the importance of solid waste disposal and the possibility of conversion them into rich organic fertilizers, the objectives of this study were to evaluation of effect of vermicomposting process (VP) on organic matter of cattle manure compost (CMC) and municipal solid waste compost (MSWC) by record changes of the elemental contents of C, N, H, S, and O...
