Shinya Hotta,Naoyuki Funamizu,

Biodegradability of fecal nitrogen was studied in composting process. Fecal nitrogen was subdivided into two fractions: a type originally inert in biological activity (N(XI)), and a slowly biodegradable one (N(XS)). During the composting process, an inert type of organic matter (N(XIB)) was reproduced by endogenous respiration of heterotrophic microorganism. Evaluations for fecal nitrogen formed a conclusion of 75% (N(XS)) and 25% (N(XI)), respectively. It was estimated that the N(XIB) could be 9% of initial fecal nitrogen. Thus, approximately 34% (N(XI)+N(XIB)) of initial fecal nitrogen remained in the composting material (mixture of sawdust and feces) as biologically inert type of organic nitrogen.
