PRO.312-Research to Improve Compost Facility Air Emissions Permitting-AC23.CREF

Compost process conditions determine air emissions. Measuring and controlling these conditions is straight forward and cost-effect. Measuring air emissions, while scientifically interesting, is expensive and the accuracy of standard source testing methods is not well understood. Regulations that focus on the quality of process conditions can be effective and helpful.Speakers: Tim O’NeillDuration: 28 minutesCredits: 0.5Member… Continue reading PRO.312-Research to Improve Compost Facility Air Emissions Permitting-AC23.CREF

USE.227-An Emerging Issue? Compost Plastic Contamination and Possible Soil Health Implication-AC23.USCC

Microplastics have been found in all measured composts and thus compost may be a vector for plastic to enter agricultural soils. Soil microplastics may impact greenhouse gas emissions, microbial activity, and nutrient cycling in agricultural soil ecosystems.Speakers: Sarah HobsonDuration: 29 minutesCredits: 0.5Member Price: $30.00Non-Member Price: $52.50Purchase Course Now
