Abstract
Solid waste of each municipal corporation is diversified in nature and highly dependent on the type of area from where it has been collected. There are many options for handling and disposing off these wastes. Composting is a natural biological process in which degradable part of waste is transformed into a stable material with excellent characteristics for application on soils. This makes the recycling of organic waste as soil amendments, a useful alternative to incineration, landfill or rubbish dumps. For sustainable development of potent fungal strains, they require critical adaptation by acclimatization process through semicontinuously maintained shake flask technique. During the experiment, the fungal strains were exposed to periodic simultaneous acceleration in quantitative content of individual selected nutrient as a substrate. The acclimatization program was conducted for the development of potent fungal strains which were characterized for ecofriendly, sustainable and efficient composting process.
