Evaluation of technique for reducing organic waste to compost of Real hotels at Barrancabermeja

Abstract

The research presented below allows to complement previous phases of studies carried out with Sennova resource on the analysis of different methods of the manual turning technique for aerobic composting in the Real hotels of the district of Barrancabermeja; all this, due to the inadequate disposal of the mostly organic solid waste that is deposited in the landfill of the district and where currently there are problems of location because it is in an area classified as a nature reserve, in addition to being close to the San Silvestre swamp which provides the coastal population with vital liquid. Therefore, it is necessary to implement recovery methods for the transformation of organic plant waste generated in the hotel sector by means of the manual composting turnaround technique to produce organic fertilizers that minimize the environmental impact currently occurring at the final disposal site. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of reducing organic waste to compost generated in Real hotels, in order to establish whether it is really feasible and its percentage of transformation compared to the other composting methods by means of the manual tipping technique. It is estimated that, by making use of this type of use and the technique implemented, it can reduce impacts on the environment and improve the quality of life.
