Windrow Composting
Also known as Open Air Windrow Composting (abbreviated to both OAW and OWC) facilities primarily treat green and garden waste in open windrows, typically under permit conditions that largely exclude animal by-products and food wastes.
Waste is shredded, stacked in windrows (long narrow rows), and then regularly turned to ensure mixing and optimisation of natural biological processes in aerobic conditions (aerobic digestion); ultimately producing a compost output/soil improver for use on land and in landscaping. This type of infrastructure provides an overview of Windrow Composting facilities for the UK, linking to individual pages for each facility that provides greater detail [in the future].
