Estudi del compostatge de residus de neteja de boscos Authors Xavier Rudé i Payró Josep M. Alcañiz i Baldellou Abstract It has been studied the humus evolution during the composting process of smashed remains coming from the clearing up of Pinus sylvestris with Juniperus communis forests. It has also been considered the possibility to use the obtained compost as a vegetal substract. The composition of this remains, which are rich in pine wood and little branches (85 %) and have a high grade of granulometry, has made it difficult to decompose quickly, though the remaining fraction, bark of tree and frondage fundamentaly (15 %), has produced a good quality humus. The analitic parameters which qualify the whole material (like Total Organic Matter, Total Oxidable Carbon, C/N relationship, Complementary Mineralization Rate and pyrograms) shows a low remains transformation dueto the abundance ofgreat wood fragments. However, the parameters which refer to the extracted humus show important changes in the contents of Humic and Fulvic acids, GIN relationship, elemental analysis of Humic acids and pyrograms, obtaining, at the end of the process, a good quality humus. The Water Retention Graphic, clearly proves it isn't a good material to use as a vegetal substract, at least, with this high granulometry. Downloads Download data is not yet available.
