The government's recent impending SWACHH BHARAT MISSION effort has contributed to improved solid waste management (SWM). The creation of solid waste, which comprises organic and inorganic garbage of all kinds and is dumped immediately outside of cities or in landfills, is significantly impacted by the expanding population. At the same time, this waste threatens the ecological balance by emitting greenhouse gases. Using microorganisms under controlled conditions, composting transforms trash and organic materials that decompose into stable goods. Composting is a technology that has been around for a while, but it has significant drawbacks that limit its applicability and effectiveness. Pathogen detection, poor nutritional status, prolonged composting and mineralization times, and odour production are some drawbacks. As a result of these difficulties, the Haber-Bosch method, which produces chemical fertilisers instead of compost, has gained popularity over time. Despite making nutrients easily accessible to plants, chemical fertilisers have more drawbacks than benefits. Chemical fertilisers, for instance, exacerbate climate change, contribute to environmental pollution, the extinction of marine and soil life, ozone depletion, and human sickness. In order to restore soil fertility, farmers have turned back to utilising compost.
