The main aim of this project based paper is to provide technological solution for composting process with will help to minimize the composting process and the technology will be easy to adopt. We are facing waste management problems in all areas. Agriculture and Industrial waste management is one of them. There are lot of methodologies available in the market for processing the raw material and making compost. The various methods differ location to location and season to season. The researchers are doing continuous research on the process optimization and to find minimum time to produce compost. Thus, a sound technology is required to improve the quality of manures in the shortest possible time, where farmers can prepare the compost easily and improve its nutritional quality by the addition of cheap amendments as additives in composting. Therefore appropriate composting technology which is economically viable, eco-friendly and socially acceptable is essential. Development of Rapid composting techniques to produce organic fertilizers will help to minimize soil pollution due to chemical fertilizers and will help in Agricultural and Industrial organic solid waste management. We have done few experiments on accelerating composting processes. Use of activated sludge with other additives have helped to improve compost process time and its nutrients. In this paper we have given detail methodology and results obtained from the experiments.
