+ | **Bio-waste becomes valuable fertilizer** | ||
+ | |||
+ | During composting, organic materials such as fruit and vegetable residues, egg shells and | ||
+ | coffee grounds or garden waste are decomposed and converted into nutrient-rich humus, | ||
+ | which can then be used as fertiliser in raised beds. There are many different types of | ||
+ | compost containers. The material and the size of the compost container is important. | ||
+ | |||
+ | They are made of wood, metal or plastic. It is important that the compost is always well | ||
+ | aerated so that the organisms (bacteria, fungi, worms, insects, etc.) that are responsible for | ||
+ | the composting process are always supplied with air and water. In the drum composter the | ||
+ | mixing is very easy, it was built by students of the university in Kleve within the scope of a | ||
+ | student project. | ||
