Composting milk whey

I would like to know about peoples experiences using cooked milk whey for composting. Where I live there is a well established cheese making tradition, but whey (after extracting something similar to ricota) is dispose off down the drain and from there goes untreated to the fluvial ways. Some whey is used for feeding hogs, but pork production is not all that popular in this area, so I am thinking of using it in our composting operations as a N source, any ideas, problems or resources ?. (ie making Bocashi)

Many thanks for your help.
