TLDR
In this paper, the authors investigated nitrogen dynamics and losses in household waste mixtures with different litter additives during composting, maturation and storage, and concluded that there is no obvious way to efficiently decrease nitrogen losses through addition of litter materials.About:

Effect of C/N on composting of pig manure with sawdust
TL;DR: Co-composting of pig manure with sawdust at a low initial C/N would require a composting longer than 63 days, and, the high salinity due to the large amount of pork manure would pose a potential inhibition on plant growth.

Solid Waste Management by Composting: State of the Art
TL;DR: A review of the state of the art of compost science is presented in this paper, encompassing the history, the mechanism, the production, the characteristics, and the effects of composting.

SE—Structures and Environment
TL;DR: Gaseous emissions and the biological turnover of organic household wastes were studied under controlled conditions in a compost reactor (55°C, moisture content 65% w/w, O 2 concentration 16% in compost off-gas).

Carbon, nitrogen balances and greenhouse gas emission during cattle feedlot manure composting.
TL;DR: Emission of 368.4 kg C Mg(-1) (CO2-C equivalent) was greater than the initial TC content of SBM, raising the question of the net benefits of composting on C sequestration.
Guidelines on the use of urine and faeces in crop production

Introduction to soil microbiology
TL;DR: In this paper, the biological processes that take place in the soil and their importance to soil fertility, plant growth, and environmental quality are investigated from both descriptive and functional viewpoints, including microbial ecology, the carbon and nitrogen cycles, mineral transformation, and ecological interrelationships.
