Sustainable Solutions: Accelerated Anaerobic Leaf Composting for Biomanure Production in Educational InstitutionsThe process of anaerobic composting at CSIR-IICT involves grinding leaf waste into pieces, mixing it with enriched microbial consortia, and adjusting the pH to 6. The mixture is then sealed in a container to create an anaerobic environment for 30 days. After this period, the sludge is collected, sun-dried, and transformed into a nutrient-rich soil conditioner (biomanure) containing N, P, K, and C, making it suitable for plant growth.https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1uxPtSx-08wljtSUZIV5DDP27O-hzRby6/edit?usp=sharing&ouid=112258394687314485132&rtpof=true&sd=true
