Composted definition

Composted means the controlled biological decomposition and stabilisation of organic substrates, either under conditions that are predominantly aerobic and that allow the development of thermophilic temperatures as a result of biologically produced heat or under circumstances that are predominantly anaerobic in a biogas plant. It results in a final product that has been sanitised and stabilised, is high in humic substances and can be used as a soil improver, as an ingredient in growing media, or blended to produce a top soil that will meet British Standard BS 3882, incorporating amendment No. 1, or applied to the soil as a liquid fertiliser. In the case of vermicomposting these thermophilic temperatures can be foregone at the point the worms are introduced.

Composted means the amount of municipal waste which is composted centrally by, or on behalf of, the council. The total should exclude any waste that is subsequently sent for disposal, for example, rejects from the composting process and composted MSW used as a daily top cover. This indicator excludes home composting.
