Bulking agent definition

Bulking agent means any material mixed and composted with sewage sludge.

Bulking agent means a material added to composting wastes to provide structure to those wastes, to lower total moisture content and to allow air to reach and be held in small pockets within the waste, by preventing settling and compaction of the waste. Most bulking agents are carbonaceous, thereby providing a source of carbon to the composting mix, and are frequently chipped or shredded wastes, such as sawdust, wood chips or yard trimmings.

Bulking agent means a material added to a composting system to provide structural support, improve aeration, or absorb moisture from the decomposing waste and includes only the following source-separated materials: wood chips, straw, shredded newspaper, shredded cardboard, sawdust, shredded brush, biodegradable containers, stover, and materials otherwise authorized in accordance with rule 3745-27-40 of the Administrative Code. Bulking agent does not include any wood that has been treated with preservatives containing arsenic or chromium.
