This research looked at the need for ligno-cellulolytic inoculants (EM bacteria and Trichoderma sp.) in small to medium scale composting of household wastes. A mixture of household organic waste comprised of kitchen waste, paper, grass clippings and composted material was subjected to various durations of thermo composting followed by vermicomposting with and without microbial inoculants for a total of 28days. The results revealed that ligno-celluloytic inoculants are not essential to speed up the process of composting for onsite small scale household organic waste treatment as no significant difference was observed between the control and those inoculated with Trichoderma and EM in terms of C:N ratio of the final product. However, it was observed that EM inoculation enhanced reproductive rate of earthworms, and so probably created the best environment for vermicomposting, in all treatment groups.
本研究着眼于木质纤维素分解菌接种剂（EM 细菌和木霉属）在家庭废物小规模到中等规模堆肥中的需求。将由厨房废物、纸张、草屑和堆肥材料组成的家庭有机废物混合物进行不同时间的热堆肥，然后进行 28 天的蚯蚓堆肥，同时使用和不使用微生物接种剂。结果表明，木质纤维素分解菌接种剂对于加速现场小规模家庭有机废物处理的堆肥过程并非必不可少，因为在最终产物的 C:N 比方面，未接种木霉属和 EM 的对照组与接种组之间没有观察到显著差异。然而，观察到 EM 接种增强了蚯蚓的繁殖率，因此可能在所有处理组中为蚯蚓堆肥创造了最佳环境。
