An in-vessel aerobic composting system is provided. The system includes a composting apparatus and a programmable logic computer. The composting apparatus includes a container, multiple augers, and a floating plate. The augers may rotate clockwise or they can be reversed to rotate counter-clockwise to move the compost material up or down in the vertical direction. The augers are mounted on a support provided at the top portion of the container. The support moves forward and backward along the container during the composting process. The augers are also rotatably mounted on the floating plate. The floating plate holds the augers in an operable position and prevents the augers from bending and breaking without restricting the rotational movement of the augers. |
