RESUMONeste trabalho, o enfoque foi a integração dos processos de compostagem e vermicompostagem para otimizar a reciclagem de resíduos sólidos.Cada tratamento recebeu um volume total de 40 cm 3 de resíduos.Os experimentos foram realizados em duas etapas: a primeira constituiu-se na pré-compostagem de resíduos sólidos vegetais (RV), com adição de esterco ou serragem de madeira. A irrigação e o revestimento das leiras nessa etapa foram realizados depois de 7, 14, 21 e 28 dias do início, e a temperatura foi monitorada. Na segunda etapa foram testados os tratamentos obtidos da primeira etapa com e sem minhocas.Os experimentos foram colocados em caixas de compensado de 60 cm 3 de dimensão, e os tratamentos sem minhocas foram dispostos em leiras e revolvidos a cada 7 dias. Nos tratamentos com minhocas foram adicionadas de 200 a 400 minhocas adultas da espécie Eisenia foetida. O processo foi acompanhado por meio de análises de C/N, variação de temperatura, grau de umidade, pH, matéria orgânica (MO) total, carbono total, teor de ácidos húmicos, nitrogênio total, fósforo e potássio. Na primeira etapa do processo, que constitui a termoestabilização dos resíduos nos diferentes tratamentos, a temperatura máxima atingida foi de 35, 53 e 51°C no 14° dia, respectivamente nos tratamentos RV, resíduos vegetais+serragem de madeira (RVM) e resíduos vegetais+esterco (RVE). Na segunda etapa, após 56 dias, a massa em degradação atingiu a temperatura ambiente, sendo, então, deixada para maturar por 98 dias. O pH final ficou na faixa de 6,74 a 8,90. A relação C/N inicial dos tratamentos RVE e RVM foi 34/1 e 184/1, e chegou a 17/1 e 34/1 após 98 dias utilizando a vermicompostagem. ABSTRACTIn this work, the focus was for the integration of composting and vermicomposting processes to optimize the recycling of solid wastes. Each treatment received a total volume of 40 cm 3 of waste.The experiments were conducted in two stages: the first consisted in pre-composting solid waste vegetables with addition of manure or sawdust. The irrigation and coating of windrows at this stage were conducted after 7, 14, 21 and 28 days from the beginning, and the temperature was monitored. In the second stage, the treatments obtained from the first stage were tested with and without earthworms.The experiments were placed in wooden boxes of 60 cm³ in size, and the treatments without earthworms were placed in windrows and scrambled every 7 days. In the treatments with earthworms were added 200-400 adult worms, Eisenia foetida. During the process the C/N ratio, temperature variation, moisture content, pH, total organic matter, total carbon, humic acid content, total nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium were evaluated. In the first stage of the process, which is the thermal stabilization of residues in the different treatments, the maximum temperature reached 35, 53 and 51°C on the 14 th day, respectively in RV, RVM e RVE treatments. In the second stage, after 56 days, the ambient temperature was reached; the organic wastes were then laid to reach full maturity f...
