General description of the WasteStar FC system with col-
lection tank
MEIKO WasteStar FC with collection tank is designed to dispose of incidental organic
waste with a central system using a vacuum. The WasteStar -- disposal system fulfills
the most recent legal stipulations with regard to waste management for organic mate-
rials in industrial kitchens. It can be operated without a connection to the wastewater
system,
DIN 1986 part 1.
The modular system with central vacuum generation makes possible the economical,
environmentally-friendly and rational preparation / disposal of kitchen waste and food
waste.
The incidental organic waste is fed into infeed stations. The feed hoppers have a ca-
pacity of approx. 40 litres, which is vacuumed into a central collection tank.
Organic waste from the preparation zones are collected in commercially available GN
containers and fed into a central separate infeed station. A button is pressed for vac-
uuming into the collection tank.
Optionally the contents of the grease and starch separator (grease, oil, sludge,
starch) can also be conducted to the collection tank through pipelines.
Periodical maceration breaks up and homogenizes the organic waste in the collection
tank. This process brings the waste to a consistency that prevents blockage of the
tank emptying line upon disposal of the stored waste.
Consistent hygiene management can prevent unpleasant odours during disposal as
well as when emptying the tank into the disposal vehicle.
The exhaust air from the vacuum pump and the smell emissions are discharged with
a separate exhaust air duct via the roof.
The system is controlled centrally using a SPS control unit (Simatic S7). In the initial
setting (automatic-operation) the control processes are fully automatic and are regis-
tered by signal lamps on the central switch cabinet.
Optional remote monitoring via modem is integrated into the system for purposes of
maintenance and service. A connection to the central building - process control for
the control data is provided.
The MEIKO WasteStar system complies with the quality and safety requirements of
EC directives as well as the ISO 9001 quality management system.
