The conventional process is based on natural ventilation where as the aerated method uses forced mechanical aeration. This study is based on the experimental data on biodegradation of organic wastes with different C:N ratios. Further, their conditions In-vessel composting units have been presented and detailed analysis on the stabilization of organic wastes was performed. The study was executed under natural and forced aeration. Four separate amendment conditions were applied to stimulate varying degrees of bioconversion rate. Optimum conditions were maintained inside the vessel by means of proper aeration, moisture and sufficient mixing. Several of nutrient values (carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium) during temperature, pH and volatile solids were carreactors using different types ofm organic wastes such as paper and pulp, diary sludge, sugar industry wastes, saw dust and municipal solid waste. Then their compost stability was assessed.ried out on alternate days. The process was carried out in the laboratory scale
