AB Composting could be a suitable solution to the correct treatment and hygienization ofseveral organic waste, producing compost that can be used in agriculture. The evolution and maturityof this process has been studied using a variety of techniques. One very promising technique forthese studies is thermogravimetric analysis. On the other hand, the compost can be used for avariety of purposes different to the agricultural one, such as direct energy by combustion or energyand products by pyrolysis and its suitability can be measured by thermogravimetric techniques.With these goals, a bibliographic analysis has been done, applying Preferred Reporting Items forSystematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses PRISMA methodology, to the use of thermogravimetricequipment applied to the study of composting and compost uses. According to the methodology forPRISMA systematic reviews, the following databases have been searched Google Scholar, Web ofScience, Mendeley, Microsoft Academic, World Wide Science, Science Direct, IEEE Xplore, SpringerLink, Scopus, and PubMed by using the terms “thermogravimetry AND (compost OR composting)AND NOT plastic”.
