| dc.description.abstract | The study focuses on the application of Bokashi composting as an alternative method of biodegradable kitchen waste (BKW) management in households. A questionnaire survey conducted in the Lučenec district aimed to assess residents’ willingness to separate BKW and their interest in alternative processing methods. The Bokashi composter uses anaerobic fermentation to transform waste into solid residues and fermentation liquid. The effectiveness of this liquid was tested via a phytotoxicity test using garden cress seeds (Lepidium sativum L.), observing germination effects at various dilutions over 48 hours. Results showed that 38.9% of respondents would prefer home composting with provided composters, and 61.1% consider it the most efficient method of BKW management. While 50% had not heard of the Bokashi method, 22.2% expressed interest in further information. Findings suggest a significant potential for domestic composting, especially when proper technical support and education are provided. The phytotoxicity test confirmed that the fermentation liquid is suitable for gardening use when adequately diluted. | |
