One of the problems of the cities is the raising of household waste, with polluting effects on the environment. On the other hand, in agriculture, through specific activities necessary to ensure food, fertilizers are needed, which could be used for the commands of sustainable development. Depending on environmental conditions, the negative impact can be indicated that they have on the human population by affecting plants, animals and, not least, people. Developed countries, such as the Netherlands, UK, Germany, France, Switzerland, have invested in technologies for the transformation of household organic waste into biofertilizers with low impact to the environment. The present article tries to analyze and underline the eco-efficiency of transforming organic waste into biofertilizers.
