Exploring Floral Waste into Bio-compost using Microbial Consortium from cow dung: A Review

Resumo

India being a cultural nation with pilgrimage and deities activities as well an arena of myriad social and cultural functional events, leads to floral waste generation as anatural inevitable outcome with a very slow degradation. A huge amounts of flower waste followed by temple offerings, released daily in the water bodies or as dumping off in soil. This leads to a severe environmental pollution and health hazards. Degradedfloral waste residues serve to be a cheap & flexible source of choice for bio compost. Presence of a diverse group of microorganisms isolated from rich nutritional source as cow dung helps in an efficient degradation of highly complex organic components intosimple stable end product, BioCompost Therefore in the present work, an attempt was made, todiscuss onan efficient degradation process of floral waste by cow dung driven microbial isolates.
