Isolation and identification of bacteria from high-temperature compost at temperatures exceeding 90 ° C

Conventional composts exhibit temperatures ranging from 50 to 80C during organic waste degradation by microorganisms. In high-temperature compost, temperatures can reach 90C with appropriate bottom aeration. To elucidate specific characteristics of the bacterial activity in high-temperature compost and to regenerate a high-temperature compost from isolates, bacterial isolation and characteri...
