According to the Ministry of the Environment, in Brazil, in 2017, about 55% of the waste produced is composed of organic waste and the current disposal of this waste in the environment has been responsible for deleterious impacts on man and the ecosystem. Composting is one of the most effective means of recycling organic waste, as in addition to being a sustainable way of disposing of this waste, the use of its by-product in the soil can keep acidity levels stable and favor agricultural practices. There are different composting methods, with domestic composting being an advantageous alternative for the treatment of the organic portion of household waste, since the installation of the system and the use of the final compost takes place in the same place where the waste is produced. The final organic compost is a material rich in macro and micronutrients, with satisfactory application, as fertilizer or fertilizer, in horticulture. Organic horticulture is intended for the cultivation of vegetables, legumes, grains, among other healthy foods that contribute to the health and well-being of its users. In this context, the objective of this work was to study domestic composting as an instrument of environmental sustainability and improvement of the quality of life.
