N2 - Composting of food processing waste was analyzed as a biological process and an engineered system. The goal is to establish fundamental principles and design criteria that would aid its adoption as waste management practice. Characteristics of the inflow, reactor, and outflow were evaluated. Success of the bioreactor was found to be largely dependent on microbial community structure, physical properties of biodegradable waste (BW), aeration, and time required for maturation. Vermicomposting, electric field induction, maggot farming, microbial fuel cells, energy production, air pollution reduction, and leachate treatment were explored.
