Abstract
Solid waste and sludge disposal is a great problem that must be solved by municipalities.
Izmir, with its 3 million populations, generates 2500-3000 tones of solid waste every day and
at least 40% of this solid waste is organic(Coban, 2004). In addition to solid waste, 343-640
tones/day of wastewater treatment plant sludge, which also has high organic content, is
generated at the wastewater treatment plants of Izmir (Altinbas and Yağmur, 2004).
In this study, co-compostability of solid wastes and sludges originating from İzmir city
were investigated. Up to 50% weight lost and organic reduction were gained with different
solid waste and sludge mixtures. The results indicated that the amounts of solid waste and
sludges, that must be landfilled, can be reduced and converted to a valuable product using
composting method

Abstract
Katı atık ve arıtma çamurlarının bertarafı belediyeler tarafından çözülmesi gereken önemli
bir problemdir. 3 milyon nüfusa sahip olan İzmir’de hergün 2500-3000 ton katı atık
oluşmaktadır (Çoban, 2004). Oluşan bu katı atığın en az % 40’lık bir kısmı organiktir. Katı
atıklara ek olarak, İzmir’deki tesislerde günde 343-640 ton arasında organik içeriği yüksek
atık su arıtma tesisi çamuru oluşmaktadır (Altınbaş ve Yağmur., 2004).
Bu çalışmada İzmir kentinden kaynaklanan katı atık ve arıtma çamurlarının birlikte
kompostlaştırılabilirliği incelenmiştir. Değişik katı atık arıtma çamuru karışımları için %
50’lere varan kütle kaybı ve organik içeriklerinde azalma sağlanmıştır. Sonuçlar göstermiştir
ki depolanması gereken katı atık ve arıtma çamurlarının miktarları kompostlaştırma yöntemi
ile azaltılabilir ve değerli bir ürüne dönüştürülebilir
