- Abstract
This study demonstrated that the temperature variation could cause alternation of quantity and population of microbes and affect biodegradation of organic matter during natural composting process of static pile sludge. It was found that the biodegradable solids of composting mass were mostly degraded during moderate thermophilic period and the mesophilic and thermophilic microorganisms played a major role during sludge composting process.
