Moisture Management

TopTex helps to maintain optimal moisture conditions. It diverts rainfall away from the windrows and therefore minimizes the incidence of leachate. We have observed that this material equalizes moisture by shedding and retaining when needed. This simply cannot be accomplished with plastic tarps. TopTex is porous and allows excess moisture to evaporate from saturated feed stocks. TopTex Compost Cover, Compostwerks

Composting

Controlled humus building through composting of organic wastes

Composting is the conversion of organic wastes into high-quality humus. Through systematic controls, these materials can be returned to the earth completing the cycles of nature and improving the soil to which it is applied. The Controlled Microbial Compostin (CMC) method helps to restore the fertility and buffering capacity of

agricultural soils. In order to achieve this goal, strict guidelines and controls must be followed. This includes the proper selection of the feedstocks, regular turning of the piles for aeration, and proper guidance of the decomposition process. Therefore, several parameters such as temperature, oxygen levels, CO levels, pH value, sulfide, nitrite, nitrate, and ammonium must be continuously monitored, and if necessary adjusted.
