Capture and utilization of heat and CO2 from in-vessel composting of municipal source-separated organics in a modular vertical greenhouse
Municipal composting of source separated organics is a costly process that utilizes significant energy and labour. The potential exists to capture and take advantage of by-products generated from the biological decay of the organics, including CO2 gas and heat. We are proposing to have a PhD and a MSc student investigate the potential of capturing these by-products from the composting process to be utilized in a vertical stacked greenhouse system to promote urban agriculture and food sustainability.
