Influence of organofluorine-treated textiles on biowaste composting

A mixture of cotton textiles and biowaste is used as compost racy material. The dynamics of composting and the phytocompatibility of biological waste composts are studied to clarify the influence of organofluorine-treated tex tiles. The dynamics of composting different biowaste/textile mixtures and t he phytocompatibility of the resulting composts are not adversely affected by adding the textiles under examination, even when the latter are treated with the organofluorine compounds Olephobol C or Oleophobol S.
