Abstract
Vermicomposting is an eco-biotechnology that employs earthworms in the process of decomposition of organic matter. Taking into account the proenvironmental politics worldwide, it may be considered an interesting eco-innovation in biowaste treatment. Thus, it fits perfectly into the circular economy concept, transferring different types of organic wastes (domestic and industrial) into renewable energy sources or “biosoils.” Moreover, it constitutes an alternative to other waste disposal techniques considered not to be environmentally friendly. Lately, many different types of organic wastes have been proposed as substrates in the process, for example, byproducts from different industry branches. Some beneficial properties of vermicompost make it an interesting product for agriculture, gardening, and remediation of polluted areas.
