The following sentence would make sense scientifically:
As a result of pressure created by rapidly decomposing waste, many machines were shut down.
When waste decomposes it releases gases that can, if they are confined, build up and create pressure.

I believe it's not the waste itself that is rapidly decomposing, but there is a need to rapidly reduce it.

Well then, you are going to have to be much clearer about what you wish to say. You need to provide much more context about the subject.
