Recycling Using The WastePro
Composting is a well-established, natural method for treating organic
materials to produce a product that is free of pathogens and high in
nutrients and can therefore add valuable organic matter to improve the
soil. It features high on the Government’s preferred
recycling solutions.
An on-site In Vessel Composter (IVC) enables waste producers to adopt a
100% sustainable approach to the disposal of their food waste thereby
ensuring its diversion from environmentally unfriendly landfill or
incineration plants.
Following maceration and dewatering, food waste is recycled into high
quality compost in around 6 weeks.
By providing the ideal conditions in which microbes can act upon the
food waste, IVCs fufil the essential requirements for producing high
quality compost.
In Vessel Composter
The in vessel composter typically comprises a horizontally orientated
rotating cylinder and air circulation and ventilating systems. The
feedstock is periodically turned, heated and ventilated automatically.
Food waste is loaded, together with a bulking agent, at the front end
of the IVC and compost is automatically discharged at the other end
several weeks later.
In vessel composters are available in a range of capacities relative to
the volume and type of food waste that is being processed.
