I I I I I I I I ,I '1 I I I Odor Control Odor from inside the building, generated from the composting process, will be exhausted from the building through an outdoor biofilter. The building will be maintained under negative pressure using fans in order to control odorous air within the building. Operation of the fans will be controlled by building temperature and relative humidity. The exhaust air will be forced through the biofilter odor control system. The biofilter will break down odorous compounds through adsorption, absorption, and microbial degradation. The biofilter is composed of an aeration piping system laid in a stone plenum which is covered by approximately 3' 6" of biofilter media and mulch cover. The biofilter media is a mixture of bark mulch, compost and wood chips. Finished Product The finished compost materi51 will be removed from the composting bays and placed on the paved storage pad.
