Abstract

Physical and chemical changes in biopiles were examined during composting of soda ash contaminated with grease. All compost trial temperature profiles illustrated initial elevated temperature levels followed by a slow gradual temperature decreasing phase. The C:N ratio and bulking agent seem to have the greatest impact on producing thermophilic temperatures. The composting process did not remove the contaminants to the agreed endpoints after 5 months. Therefore more time is needed to reduce total petroleum hydrocarbon (TPH) to disposal limits. With the experiments being a success in producing self-heating elevated temperatures, it is obvious that the precise parameters necessary are still vague.
