[1] Enough constant circulation of air, so that the compost pile doesn't run out of oxygen. Decomposition takes place with oxygen [ka aerobic], or without [ka anaerobic]. Anaerobic decomposition is what takes place in landfills. That leads to bad smells, and to greenhouse gases such as methane. [2] Enough heat, although cold composting is possible. [3] Enough moisture, so that compostable materials are about on par with wrung-out sponges. [4] Regular turning of the compost pile layers. The more the pile is turned, the quicker the breakdown takes place. Compostable materials that are turned daily may be compost in less than a month.
