Container for accelerated composting with a rotating flinger that is used to mix the contents and to empty the container

摘要

Upper end of container for composting is formed by a housing (5) containing a flinger (6). During filling and emptying the closing plate (7) is replaced by a funnel (8). Upper end of the container is formed by a housing (5) containing a flinger (6). During filling and emptying the closing plate (7) is replaced by a funnel (8). A guide vane (9) directs the flow of material and its inclination is varied to suit the various operations of the container. Air vents (12), whose openings (14) face the fulcrum (13) enter the material. Openings (14) will be above a possible liquid level. The container is tilted about shaft (13) so that the material slides along the tapered sides to enter the flinger, either for mixing or emptying. A size between 0.5 and 5 m<3> is envisaged.
