Compost & Organics

Compost monitoring is now one application of IRYS test & measurement.

IRYS supports compost and organics facilities with pile temperature, gas, weather, fence-line monitoring, dashboards, alerts, and records that help operators understand both process conditions and nuisance-event context.

Compost data in one timeline

Pile Temperature

Track internal pile trends and reduce gaps from manual temperature logging.

Gas Trends

Monitor gases such as NH₃ and H₂S to provide environmental context around process conditions.

Weather

Use wind direction, humidity, rainfall, and temperature to understand off-site nuisance concerns.

Reports

Summaries and incident timelines help support internal review, operational changes, and external conversations.

What it helps explain

Temperature alone tells part of the story. Gas and weather help explain what was happening across the site when neighbors complain, regulators ask questions, or operations need adjustment.

QuestionUseful Data
Are piles staying within target process ranges?Internal temperature trends and historical records.
Did a turning event correspond with odor reports?Gas readings, wind direction, time stamps, and operating notes.
Was the site upwind or downwind of the complaint?Local wind data tied to the complaint window.

Bring process and nuisance data together.

IRYS can design a compost monitoring deployment that combines pile, gas, and weather context.
