Abstract

Various fungi play a crucial part in the decomposition of organic materials during composting, which is a cost-effective process of converting various unstable and complicated organic substances into a stable and humus-like substance. Composting is the regulated transformation of wastes and biodegradable organic materials into stable products with the help of microbes. Although composting has been around for a while, it still has significant drawbacks that limit how widely it is utilized and how effectively it works. Microbes detection, nutrient status that is low, a lengthy composting process, a lengthy mineralization process, and odor creation are some of the drawbacks. The consumption of synthetic chemical fertilizers can be decreased through composting. These fertilizers are used to feed crops with the macro and micronutrients they need. The current study explains how to compost quickly, biodegradable solid wastes without endangering the environment.
