| Sumario: | <p id="p1">Stimulating compost humification is an important method to facilitate carbon sequestration, especially against the background of carbon neutrality. However, the disadvantages of traditional composting, including long humification cycles and high environmental risks, restrict its application. Microbial inoculants markedly increase the humus content of compost, and their performance is considerably influenced by the nature of the material, the microbial species, the inoculation dosages, and the inoculation methods. So far, the effects of microbial inoculants on compost maturity and microbial diversity have been widely studied, whereas an overview of their regulatory role in humus formation is still lacking. This review summarizes the promotional effects of microbial inoculants on humification and related biological mechanisms during composting. Further research on the development of microbial inoculants and the optimization of inoculation methods will promote humification and facilitate the production of high-quality compost.</p> |
