Instead of food waste being an environmental problem it becomes a source of energy that can be used for biogas or compost. The food waste is also handledThe waste inlet, made from stainless steel, can easily be integrated in new or existing dishwashing lines. The inlet is supplied with a rubber scraper for plates and a magnetic trap for magnetic cutlery. Bulk waste can easily be emptied into the inlet. After grinding the food waste it is transported in a closed pipe systemby suction/pressure to a storage tank or de-watering unit. The storage tank is emptied 1-4 times per month (depending on size of tank) by an extraction truck for transport to biogas/composting facility.
