A screw compactor comprising a housing ( 4 ) having an opening for the insertion of wet waste to be compacted and defining a compaction volume ( 14 ); a screw ( 8 ) rotatably mounted in the housing; a guideway for transporting compacted waste from the compaction volume; a motor ( 10 ) for rotating the screw; and a duct ( 20 ) to pass air heated by the motor ( 10 ) to the guideway to heat the compacted waste. The heating of the compacted waste reduced the liquid content in the compacted waste by enhancing evaporation.
