During composting, the microorganisms in the compost pile break down the organic matter, including carbon, into simpler compounds like carbon dioxide, water, and humus. This process releases carbon back into the environment in the form of carbon dioxide, which can then be used by plants for photosynthesis.

Yes, cream of tartar is a natural byproduct of winemaking and is safe to compost. It is acidic, which can help balance the pH levels in the compost pile.

Make sure to mix it well with other compost materials to ensure proper decomposition.
