PREPARATION OF FOOD WASTE FOR COMPOSTING

It is very important to sort the food waste from other waste before putting it into the composter
(also see 1.6.5 and 4.2.2 on what the limitations of this machine is). When having an in-conveyor
and shredder installed this is even more important since feeding the in-conveyor and shredder
with metal objects etc may cause serious damage to the machinery.
3.6.1 CUT THE WASTE MATERIAL
It is important that all waste material that is put into the composter is cut in small pieces (2-3 cm)
giving the micro-organisms a larger surface on the waste material to work on. By cutting the material
the quality of the outgoing compost material will be improved. Citrus fruits have to be cut before
being put into the composter because these fruits are treated with biocides on the peel and which
stop the micro-organisms to getting the decomposing process started. If the citrus fruits are put in
without being cut they will eventually come out whole and will have to be cleared from the other
composted material.
