Notable Compost References
Occasionally the need arises to consult engineering handbooks and science textbooks on composting processes and technical specifications. Here are a few key references.

Science and Engineering of Composting: Design, Environmental, Microbiological and Utilization Aspects. 1993. Edited by Harry Hoitink and Harold Keener. The Ohio State University with Renaissance Publications, Worthington, OH . 728 p.

Proceedings of the International Composting Research Symposium in 1992. Major sections include Microbiology, Systems and Infrastructure of Composting; Odor Control; Biodegradation of Organic Pollutants During Composting; Heavy Metals; Compost Stability and Maturity; Facility Management; Beneficial Effects Induced by Composts; Economic Considerations. Formerly distributed by BioCycle/JG Press. Out of print.

The Practical Handbook of Compost Engineering.
1993. By R.T. Haug. Lewis Publishers, Boca Raton, FL. 717 p.
This is an engineering handbook from Lewis Publishers, a CRC Press imprint, edited by Roger Haug, adjunct professor at Loyola Marymount University. It provides a comprehensive review of composting with lots of engineering data and technical specifications. The sections on composting systems and compost biology are particularly useful. The book is listed here mainly as a library reference. It lists for $169 through CRC Press.

The Science of Composting. 1997.
By Eliot Epstein. CRC Press, Boca Raton, FL. 487 p.
Epstein's book is another encyclopedic reference on composting from CRC Press; other editions are published by Technomic Pub. Co. in Lancaster, PA.

It lists for $199 through CRC Press.

Compost Utilization In Horticultural Cropping Systems. 2001.
By Peter J. Stoffella and Brian A. Kahn. Lewis Publishers, Boca Raton, FL. 414 p.

This is a CRC Press-Lewis Publishers book edited by Peter Stoffella and Brian Kahn, horticultural professors at University of Florida and Oklahoma State University, respectively. This is a valuable addition to the compost literature because it is recently published, and the chapters contain contributions from well-known authors in compost technology. Topics include Biological, Chemical, and Physical Processes of Composting; Commerical Compost Production Systems; Compost Quality; Compost Effects on Crop Growth; Compost Utilization; Disease Suppressive Composts; Nitrogen Sources and Mineralization Rates; and Human Pathogen Precautions. It lists for $100 through CRC Press.
