Komposztálás

Our technology is capable of composting any kind of biodegradable waste. Depending on the input materials the result can be high quality compost or stabilized compost that is adequate for agricultural soil improving.

Composting converts biodegradable waste into compost that is safe for humans, animals and plants, and that is recyclable mainly as a fertiliser, soil improver or, in a lower proportion, recovered as a fuel. Aerobic treatment can also be used for biological stabilisation of waste prior to landfilling. Exothermic biochemical decomposition helps to sanitise compost, killing off seeds, spores and pathogenic microorganisms.

Mechanikai-biológiai hulladékkezelés (MBH)

A technológiánk lehetővé teszi lakossági hulladék mechanikia-biológiai stabilizálását mielőtt az a hulladélreakóra kerülne.Mechanikai-biológiai hulladékkezelést (MBH) azzal a céllal tervezik, hogy a hulladékáram értékes komponenseit kinyerjék és a megmaradt hulladék biológiailag lebomló frakcióját stabilizálják. Gyakran a megmaradt hulladék egy részét dúsítják, és fűtőanyagként hasznosítják erőművekben.

Az MBH folyamat végén keletkezett anyag térfogata jelentősen alacsonyabb a kiindulási anyagétól, és amennyiben megfelelően kezelt, akkor a metán és szagemisszió 90-98%-al csökken a deponálást követően (nem kezelt lakossági hulladékhoz hasonlítva).

The video shows a small part of the trial operation in an MBT plant in Hungary. Covering the composting pile (MSW) for the first time took only 10 minutes for the staff. The cover is designed for pulling, the longitudinal and horizontal reinforcing sewing prevent the tearing of the material.

Compostal Cover®

Windrows or piles are covered with semipermeable membrane covers, which are a method of treating emissions, such as odours, ammonia, VOCs, dust and bioaerosols from an active composting heap.

The cover is formed by a textile laminate with the membrane being the middle layer as the functional component. The emission retention is based on the combination of a liquid condensate layer being generated on the inner surface of the cover, which acts as a kind of bio- washer layer dissolving the majority of the gaseous substances, and the semipermeable behaviour of the membrane.

Following the force of gravity, droplets are formed and drip off thus maintaining a steady exchange with unsaturated water which in turn ensures the odour retention capability. Another important function of the semipermeable membrane cover as a system component is to provide for optimum moisture management during the above-mentioned biological treatment processes.

Achieved environmental benefits

• Low energy consumption: 1.5–4 kWh/t of input material (depending on the design and type of aerobic biological treatment).
• Emission reduction without further exchange of media (no depletion) like in the case of biofilters.
• No inherent odours generated by the semipermeable membrane cover.
• Lowest carbon dioxide equivalent compared to other technologies for composting operations

Compostal Technology®

Electrical, mechanical and computer engineers develop the technology that is widely used in Hungary to treat more than 400 000 metric tons of waste every year. In the past twenty years we have optimized our product to become a lucrative alternative to western competitors. As a small, yet efficient company we are flexible and quick when it comes to custom solutions. Covered windrow composing is a cost-effective, efficient and environmental friendly way to treat various biodegradable waste - even at the same time! The system is fully modular to allow great scalability when needed.

Compostal Technology® consists of five major components:

• Compostal Cover®
• Winding machine
• Control software with SCADA and modbus support
• Control unit
• Industrial fan
• Temperature and oxygen probes

The technology implemented by our company is listed in the Best Available Techniques (BAT) Reference Document for Waste treatment Industrial Emissions Directive 2010/75/EU.
