Abstract

The management of municipal solid waste (MSW) requires an effective system of control and supervision because of its increasing generation. In Brazil, more than half of the MSW are organic. Thus, evaluating treatment possibilities (composting and vermicomposting) for this waste compound, it is of extreme importance from of the physical, chemical, socioeconomic and environmental point of view. So, the objective of this paper is to quantify physical-chemical parameters of the compost (liquid and solid) in different covers (sawdust, leaves and soil), using in the household composting. The results showed that the obtained vermicompost (liquid and solid) did not suffer significant effects of the used particles for filling and different types of cover related to macro and micronutrients, heavy metals and pH, however, those showed satisfactory features for the use in soil fertilization.
