A macerator has many uses:听First, it greatly increases the surface in food waste, allowing the biological processes inside our composter tank to start working much faster.听Second, it helps to maintain constant moisture content organic matter entering the compost tank. Keeping the moisture content to more than 65% can promote optimal conditions for biological activity conducted by microscopic organisms.听Third, it reduces the overall volume of waste because all the air spaces have been lost through the process of maceration. This will allow the compost to deal more effectively with large amounts of food waste, increasing efficiency (from 60 tons to 100 tons per year).听Finally, it creates a dry matter which is more lightweight and less messy during transport and loading in the composter.
To measure the success of this project, the weight and volume data for food waste will be collected before and after treatment.
