abstract = {sing time by varying the mixing ratio and turning frequency. The simulation showed optimal conditions with a turning frequency of twice per week with the following mixtures: (i) BW:SG (72.9:27.1), 76 days of processing; and (ii) BW:SFC:SG (60:16:24), 88 days of processing. The results showed the effect of the type of carbon source in the cosubstrates on the retention time, which may imply the need for a larger area in composting facilities. On the other hand, the findings show that a minimum time is required to achieve a product that meets quality standards, although a longer processing time reduces the agricultural value of the compost. This model can be used to define design criteria and operating conditions and select a cosubstrate that can contribute to improving the agricultural quality of the final product.},
