Reviewer 2 Report

The paper is very good and interesting. As a comment, in addition to the membrane that you used to cover the piles, composting time may be reduced by forced aeration and/or compost accelerators.

Only two minor suggestions:

- in the methodology, please specify the period when the study was carried out (month, year)

- Table 4 - specify units for each element to avoid confusion and add a line with limit values allowed by regulations.
