WERKWIJZE EN APPARATUUR VOOR HET BEREIDEN VAN COMPOST.

摘要

A process and apparatus for producing compost having a high nutrient value from a mixture of moist, at least partially particulate organic matter containing aerobic bacteria. The composter has two parallel shafts (24, 26) with radially projecting fingers (38) which, when the shafts are rotated, slowly and gently churn and agitate the mixture in the composting chamber (10) while air is directed therethrough at a predetermined low rate. When the composting action is completed the compost is promptly dried and packaged in moisture impervious containers.
