• The Oils, fats and waxes are assembled from fatty acid chains
combined with a 3-carbon glycerol molecule.
• Oils, fats and waxes are used in biological systems primarily for
energy storage (fats, oils) or for protection (waxes).
• Fats and waxes are solid at room temperature while oils are
liquid.
Natural oils, fats and waxes are primarily obtained
from either :

Composting and Treatment Procedures for
Organic Wastes
Objectives of Composting
Composting is the process of allowing
organic materials to decompose under more or
less controlled conditions to produce an end
product that can be used as a fertilizer and/or
soil conditioner. It is a process by which
undesirable properties of organic wastes such a
foul odor, presence of pathogens, and other
undesirable physical properties are removed or
abated.
