To obtain a microorganism-carrying body having excellent water retainability, drainage, etc., capable of forming an environment suitable for the activity of microorganisms and useful for preparing compost by compounding a microorganism-carrying body with coconut husk.
Microorganism-carrying body partially containing coconut husk. In order to treat garbage using it, the microorganism-carrying body is thrown and stored in a container together with the garbage, and the mixture is stirred and mixed under aeration of oxygen-containing gas. As the coconut husk, materials prepared by finely crushing husk and/or mesocarp (fibrous material) of a coconut, preferably by sun-drying, sterilizing with high temperature steam, cutting and pressing, are used. The use of the microorganism-carrying body enables the efficient fermentation degradation of garbage, the short time treatment of it, and the removal of the danger of putrefaction or emergence of noxious insects, etc., and occurrence of foul smell associated with them.
