In this present study, catechol was added to promote humus formation in chicken manure composting using 12.5-L working volume lab-scale reactors. Chicken manure composting were carried out on two treatments, control (CK) and 0.5% (w/w) catechol treated group. Results showed that catechol addition reduced organic matter loss and improved the content of recalcitrant components. Humus and humic acid (HA) contents were, respectively, 69.2% and 82.3% higher in catechol treated-compost than in the control. With the addition of catechol, the bacterial community composition and richness was changed, e.g., the relative percentage of Bacillus and Sinibacillus were increased, which might contribute to humus and HA formation. Additionally, the activities of polyphenol oxidase and laccase (related to humus formation) were increased by the addition of catechol. Importantly, the catechol addition reduced the polyphenol content by 39.6% compared to control. Overall, the addition of catechol enhanced the biotic and abiotic factors to promote the humification process during composting, which might be a promising approach for accelerating the humification process and reducing contamination of phenolic compounds.
