Abstract/Contents: | Discusses techniques that may help increase the efficiency at large-scale composting facilities. States that "large-scale processors of yard trimmings, wood, land clearing debris and other organic materials are more conscious...of all the equipment on their sites that run on high-priced diesel fuel. Add to that emissions restrictions and efficiency becomes the name of the game." Profiles several composting facilties focusing on their efforts to increase efficiency. |
