    We are pleased to introduce a new product that helps compost organic waste (FOOD & OTHER ORGANIC WASTE FROM CANTEENS, RESIDENTIAL COMPLEXES) much faster than any of the traditional composting methods known so far. The product is an electromechanical unit whose brochure is being attached with this mail for your reference.

    WHO CAN BUY ?

    IT Parks & SEZs, Residential Complexes, Townships, Hotels, Industrial Canteens, Fruit & Vegetable markets, Large temples

    INPUT TO THE UNIT

    Either of the below :-

    Direct canteen / household waste, Cut / uncut fruits & vegetables, Dry leaves, Twigs, Flowers, Paper, Grass, Weeds, Organic biosludge, etc.

    PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS & PROCESS IN BRIEF

    1. Processes any biodegradable wet or dry organic waste as mentioned above and immediately denatures it !

    2. The smallest machine with 600 kg capacity per 8-9 hrs has a batch size of 26 kgs and the 3 ton capacity unit has a batch size of 127 kgs.

    3. The process involves feeding the organic waste into the unit, along with a small amount of culture (powder) – typically, 25 – 35 gms for a 26 kg batch.

    4. If the input is very wet in nature, some absorbent like sawdust or dry leaves has to be added to the input. (This additive is not required once you get the composted manure after the initial 15 day curing process – the dry manure itself can be used as an absorbent additive.)

    5. The unit is run for 15 mins after which the waste is completely denatured and odor free. It does not attract any rodents, birds or animals. The wet / moist mud-like output is then spread out as heaps and left for curing. A roof is advised during monsoons so that the curing process is not affected.

    6. Typically composting gets completed within 10-12 days and the final product is a highly fertile organic soil enricher.

    Please refer the attached e- brochure.

    WE ALSO OFFER SOLUTIONS FOR MUNICIPAL (TOWN LEVEL) NON HAZARDOUS WASTE MANAGEMENT SOLUTIONS.
