Influence of the autochthonous cellulolytic bacteria on the domestic compost process improvement.

ABSTRACT: This work aimed to determine the influence of the inoculation of autochthonous cellulolytic bacteria on the composting process without any modifications of physical or chemical parameters. Bacteria with cellulolytic abilities were isolated from composted material containing food and plant leftovers and identified as Bacillus licheniformis, Bacillus altitudinis, and Lysinibacillus xylanilyticus. The experimental composter containing garden and household wastes was inoculated with bio-vaccine prepared as a mixture of isolated cellulolytic bacterial strains and composted for the next 96 days parallelly to the control composter without the inoculation. During the experiment, changes in temperature, humidity, the content of the humic acids (HAs), organic carbon, nitrogen, a
