PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Organic solid wastes (OSWs) have great potential for resourceful applications. However, individual treatment technologies are difficult to effectively recover their resources. This review aims to describe the development of solid-state anaerobic digestion (SS-AD), digestate aerobic composting, and their hybrid technology (SSADAC) for OSWs treatment to maximize resource recovery from OSWs. RECENT FINDINGS: SSADAC exhibits high potential for OSW treatment in energy and nutrient recovery. As individual treatment technologies, SS-AD and digestate composting recover energy and nutrients in terms of methane and compost, respectively. However, some deficiencies of these individual treatment technologies are hard to be ignored, such as energy loss and liquid digestate/leaching discharge. SSADAC can alleviate these issues with fully synergizing the characteristics of two treatment units for multi-target products. Thus, recent studies have proposed that the regulation of digestion duration can improve SSADAC performance, and other potential methods can also improve the value of SSADAC, such as raw material regulation and exogenous additives, to achieve zero waste discharge and maximum resource recovery. This review presents the applications of SS-AD and digestate composting for OSW treatment and illustrates the development and potential improvements of SSADAC as an integrated process. Key issues and their potential counter-measurements were displayed to provide the further development of SSADAC.
