Practical Guide to the implementation of community composting as an alternative for the local management of biowaste
This Practical Guide to the implementation of community composting is framed within the global policies and strategies on circular economy for the local management of biowaste and the promotion of recycling.
It intends to serve as a reference to guide technicians, companies, users, public administrations and further stakeholders, on the community composting practices and on the operation of the dedicated areas. Furthermore, the document includes a proposal for classification of the community composting sites and the follow-up requirements that they should meet according to their degree of vulnerability.
Both the Guide and the provided classification were defined by considering all the cases currently implemented in Spain, as well as other international examples, and by taking into account the experiences shared by the technicians in charge of their implementation and operation
In the light of the above, the main objective pursued by this Guide is to be a tool for the planning of the community composting practices and description of the best operational and follow-up techniques.

Online Handbook for small scale composting facility management (SCOW project)
Specific technical documentation for support and dissemination of composting practices generated in the SCOW Project (Selective Collection of Organic Waste in Tourist Areas). The aim of SCOW, funded by the ENPI CBCMED Programme, is to develop low cost, technically simple and high quality biowaste collection and recycling models in territories with touristic areas and agricultural activity. It wants to build up a sustainable, innovative and local treatment of the biowaste in decentralized small-scale composting plants, developed essentially in agricultural holdings situated near the biowaste production areas in the partners’ territories
