Language(s) English
Abstract As part of its commitment to provide continuous support to the more than 2500 families using a biogas digester build by Initiative Développement (ID), the NGO has engaged in a one year study focused on optimising the management of biogas digesters, as well as researching the various uses of the bio-slurry. As part of this project, ID has researched how the bio-slurry could be used by the households as a compost activator. The bio-slurry is indeed rich in water (up to 99%) and mineral nitrogen (up to 0.2%), both of which are needed for the aerobic composting process. This research has focused on a field trial in Baisha village, group 3, Qinggangling township, Zhaotong prefecture, Yunnan province, China.
