(EP916636-A1)      Preparation of compost comprises: (A) inoculating an organic waste with a spawn for aerobic compost and supplying oxygen while agitating the waste and supplying water so that the water content of the waste is 60 +/- 5% or (B) inoculating an organic waste with a spawn for aerobic compost, initiating fermentation and adding a saccharide in portions to the waste before migration of main fermentation to an amine-ammonia metabolic system and (C) an apparatus for preparing compost having a fermentation tank with an oxygen supply means, water spray means and agitation means and means for detecting or evaluating the water content of an organic waste within the fermentation tank and controlling the amount of water sprayed by the water spray means based on the results of the detection or judgement.    ADVANTAGE -   In preparing compost having good quality by treating an organic waste discharged from a food processing plant, the generation of ammonia and amines causing emission of malodour and the formation of lower fatty acids as a growth inhibitor of plants can be inhibited and the compost can be stably and rapidly prepared.
