This Article deals with the utilization of agricultural waste such as cattle manure, swine manure, chicken manure and their mixtures. It is promising a simultaneous running of biogas processes and vermitechnology. A special biogas–vermitechnological shoulder was constructed. A special organic catalyst, which contained glucose and cellulose, was used in the biogas process, as a source of biogas bacteria and to alter C/N ratio of the fermented substrate, to C/N = 30/1. Swine manure shows a higher biogas yield and methane-in-biogas content than others. It is effective to mix different manures to increase biogas yield. Earthworms Eisenia Foetida were used in the vermitechnological stage. Using only cattle manure and in mixtures with leaves (4:1 wt) was processed to make vermicompost. The obtained biohumus was studied with a microscope. It was found to have a more homogenous and structured porosity surface. It was observed that the organic content increased in vermicompost. The ratio of humic and fulvic acids can be varied using rotted leaves as fillers. Atomic Absorption Spectrometry was used to determine the content of metals. It was observed that metals from manure (Sb, Rb, Sr) were accumulated in earthworms, therefore biohumus was purified from pollutants. The released heat from the biogas stage was used for the vermitechnology stage heating. Using the biogas heat, it is possible to conduct the vermiprocess, even in cold seasons.
