The pipes are placed vertically keeping them 25-30 cm inside the ground.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Only degradable waste can be disposed of into the pipes including leftover food, fruit and vegetable peels, flowers, dung, agricultural waste, etc.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once in two weeks, a little cow dung and dry leaves are mixed with water and poured inside to accelerate the growth of the worms.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This should remain closed so that rainwater does not enter the pipes. Compost manure can be removed by lifting the pipe after 2 months.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>What are the benefits of Pipe Composting Technology?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><b>Efficient Waste Conversion<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: It rapidly transforms biodegradable waste into valuable compost, contributing to waste reduction and environmental preservation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Environmental Friendliness<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Pipe composting is eco-friendly, as it doesn&#8217;t harm the environment.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Clean and Hygienic Environment<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: It helps maintain a clean and hygienic environment within school campuses, promoting health and well-being.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Odorless and Fly-Proof: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This composting method is odorless and prevents the attraction of flies, ensuring a pleasant atmosphere.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Space Efficiency: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It doesn&#8217;t require much space, making it suitable for places with limited area for waste management.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Sustainability:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> The system is sustainable, as the same pipes can be used repeatedly, reducing the need for additional materials.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Educational Opportunity:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> It offers a valuable educational opportunity for students to learn about decomposition science, the role of microorganisms and invertebrates, waste management, and sustainability, fostering environmental awareness.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Source: The post is based on the article \u201cAssam Promotes Pipe Composting: A Unique Way Of Converting Biodegradable Waste Into Manure in Two Months\u201d published in \u201cPIB\u201d on 29th September 2023.
