<p>Raw waste is first composted into a bioreactor to produce a crude compost. At the outlet of the bioreactor, the crude compost is separated from the non-compostable waste fraction. Then, the separated crude compost is conveyed to a compost maturation area where the crude compost is recycled. The composting process is conducted in at least one closed building area maintained at a negative pressure for aspirating and directing odorous substances to a biofilter. This biofilter extracts the odorous substances whereby the process can carried out in urban areas without affecting the air quality and accordingly without disturbing the neighbourhood. Also, the composting process can be run with a number of employees as small as three, to produce high quality compost substantially free of pathogenic microorganisms.</p> |
