Recycling of used spent mushroom substrate by a vermicomposting method
Abstract
All over the world, the formation of difficult-to-process waste is a pressing issue for all industries, including mushroom growing, whose volumes of waste production can be up to 60 %. Storing, burying or burning waste does not solve the problem, but only aggravates the negative consequences, especially in relation to the environment. A possible and promising solution to this problem may be the use of vermicomposting, since it allows not only completely process waste, but also obtain new environmentally friendly products. It has been established that spent mushroom substrate processed by worms has growth-stimulating activity in relation to plants, which increased as it was processed, and a complete absence of phytotoxicity.
