The invention is directed to a process and equipment for use in a process to bacterially decompose organic waste to a dry composted end material wherein organic waste is composted in a composting tank in the presence of oxygen and aerobic bacteria to obtain a wet composted material. The wet composted material is partly removed from the composting tank and dried such to lower the water content of the composted material to obtain dry composted end material.

Provided is an expandable, modular tower planter having an internal vertical composting capability, and a method of assembling and using the same. Provided in various example embodiments is a modular composting garden container system comprising a base and a plurality of stackable rings forming a tower upon the base, including an optional base ring specially sized, shaped, and positioned to connect the tower to the base. A plurality of perforated, stackable tube sections are provided that are removably assembled into a compost tube assembly of selectable height and mounted within the interior of the tower and above the base. A plurality of holding struts are sized, shaped, and positioned to removably connect the compost tube assembly with the tower and to securely locate the compost tube assembly relative to the tower. Means are provided for recovering nutrient-rich drainage and selective recovery of compost material for reintroduction into the system.

Disclosed herein is process for preparing a solid fertilizer composition and a liquid fertilizer composition. The process may comprise providing a mixture comprising (i) almond fruit, (ii) water and (iii) a nitrogen-containing compound; agitating the mixture; and separating solids in the mixture from liquid.

The present invention relates to compositions for increasing a nitrogen source life span in plant growth mediums as well as methods of making these compositions. The invention also relates to compositions and methods of reacting a nitrogen source with one or more nitrification inhibitors using standard equipment for producing nitrogen sourced particles.

A compositing process including the steps of receiving manufactured products made of compostable materials, pulverizing the manufactured products to provide a coarse slurry including the pulverized manufactured products, autoclaving the coarse slurry in an autoclaving apparatus, mixing the autoclaved coarse slurry and organic matter to provide humus, and composting the humus in a composting apparatus to produce a compost.

A plant vitality adjuvant for suppressing bacterial wilt disease of plants is provided, the plant vitality adjuvant containing, as a main raw material, a fermented composition obtained by fermenting and aging a plurality of items belonging to fruits, citrus fruits, burdock and carrot belonging to edible roots, grains, sesames, seaweed, and saccharides.

A process for producing compost that includes the steps of providing a supply of vegetable matter selected from the group of vegetable matter consisting of trees, stumps, brush, leaves and animal manure, agitating the vegetable matter to loosen and remove dirt associated with the vegetable matter and reducing the size of the vegetable matter. A variable amount of the vegetable matter is incinerated to produce a fine ash and the vegetable matter is combined with the ash. A process for producing topsoil includes the step of adding dirt to the vegetable matter/ash combination. Compost and topsoil products are also disclosed.

The invention provides an efficient system for treating livestock waste, particularly waste from cattle or pig farming. The new facility and method employ special transfers of slurry streams through ASBR, SBR, and a unique pretreatment reactor, resulting in treated water, quality compost, and biogas.
