Abstract

Durian peel is identified to take a long period of time to decay or degradation, thus it requires a pretreatment to simplify the process of hydrolysis. This study aims to determine the condition of chemical physic composting using cow"™s rumen liquor. The study used several concentrations and combinations of treatment. Parameters observed in this study include substrate temperature, moisture content, pH, Total Organic C, Total Organic N, and C/N ratio as well. The results obtained i.e. the average temperature of the substrate is 29,090C, the average moisture content of the substrate is 87.55%, and the average pH of the substrate is 7.82. The percentage change of the Organic C is 0.52% for the treatment of 30%. The percentage change of the Organic N is 36.76%. The Percentage change of C/N ratio is 41.36%. These results indicate a distinctive percentage value from various treatments with the highest concentration at 30% of cow"™s rumen liquor on Organic C, Organic N as the control, and C/N ratio as well.
