[USCC] RESPIROMETRY

[Craig Coker]

Ron:

Virginia uses respirometry (CO2 @ < 1,000 mg/l/day) as one of five
alternative methods of determining comost stability (the others being
temperature decline, reheat potential, oxygen uptake, and Solvita testing).
See 9 VAC 20-80-330D.2.a.

Hello Compost World,
Does anyone know if there are any states that are regulating the stability
of compost products using the respiromtery (CO2 generation) method?
Thanks and Happy Holidays,
Ron
