How long does the composting process take using the Wasteology system?
This is very much dependant on the final use of the compost. For example, for agricultural use, two weeks in-vessel composting followed by six to eight weeks maturation will be sufficient. It should also be noted that the length of time within the in-vessel system is dictated by the requirements of the ABPR. Under a two Barrier system and using the time/temperature criteria of 60°C for 2 days in both barriers, the material is shreded and put into a vessel for one week, Barrier 1, and then transferred into a second vessel for a further week, Barrier 2. The material is then removed from barrier 2 and is then matured on a maturation pad for a further six to eight weeks. (Top) 10. Does composting cause odours or attract rodents?

It should be noted that under the ABPR, rodents and birds must be excluded from
