Welcome to the City of Hamilton Central Composting Facility operated by Aim Environmental Group. This facility was designed to process 60000 tons of source separated organic material per year by incorporating some of the worlds most innovative composting technologies. The design team at Maple Reinders, Aim Environmental Group and our partners at van Kaathoven Group and Christiaens Group collaborated to bring the finest in European, in-vessel tunnel technology to produce a system known for rapid decomposition of organic feedstock and the production of Ontarios highest grade compost. The material that is brought to our facility is inspected before being loaded into a shredder. The material is conveyed under a cross belt magnet to remove any metal contaminants before it is loaded into one of the ten Phase 1 tunnels. The shredded waste is distributed in uniform layers over the tunnel, which is equipped with a heating system, an aerated floor and a sprinkler system to nourish the microorganisms responsible for decomposing the organic matter. It will remain in the Phase 1 tunnel for 10-14 days. The material is then moved to one of six Phase 2 tunnels, where the material is further broken down and pasteurized in order to meet strict regulations. This second phase takes 7 to 10 days, and after cooling, the material is ready to be screened. The highly efficient screening plant is able to extract plastics, stones and other ferrous material from the compost in one pass. It also ...

Bio Mate - Organic Waste Composting Process
www.weimarbiotech.com BIO-MATE is an in-vessel fully automated on-site composting machine that operates using electricity. It requires very minimal maintenance and it is user friendly. By using our high-temperature aerobic enzyme, organic waste can be fully compost in between 24-48 hours.

It can be discharge on a daily or weekly basis based on the need and want of the individual. Then end product can be used as fertilizer conditioner.

How to Start A Compost?
Composting is difficult. The wonderful truth is you couldn't stop stuff from decomposing if you tried.
A good compost bin or pile will decompose items quickly. A poor one will still decompose items, but slowly. Consider your location carefully. You don't want a compost to send smelly air downwind to your house on a hot day, but you also don't want to have to walk far from your kitchen to put things into it on a cold or rainy day. If your compost is located to receive sun, the contents will break down faster than if you put it in a shady place.
A compost can be made with metal fencing or wood pallets, or you can purchase a commercial compost bin through a garden center. Improved features on a compost bin might include a lid to prevent animal entry, a black exterior to improve solar gain and speed up the compost process, vents also to speed up the process, and a trap door at the bottom so you can pull out the rich, finished compost to spread around your garden beds. This last feature can be very nice as then you won't have to muck about from the top with a shovel to get to the useable stuff at the bottom.
In your kitchen keep some kind of container with a handle to collect compost. Some gallon ice cream tubs come with a lid and handle and are great for this purpose. A lid helps prevent fruit flies in summer. When anyone in your house chops vegetables, peels an orange, etc, put it in the compost bucket. Once a day carry the contents to your compost bin.
Into the compost bin you can put vegetable and fruit parts, pasta water, spoiled food, sour milk or fuzzy yogurt, coffee grounds, egg shells, citrus rinds and cantaloupe rinds surprisingly break down quite well. When you are cleaning up your yard you can put in healthy leaves.
What you don't want in your compost: meat, bones, kitty litter (even if you use clay litter, this would create a health hazard), nut shells, those little sticky labels they put on fruits (watch out for them), look out for accidentally dumping in plastic wrappers (happens more often than you might think), sticks, any parts of pine trees, green walnuts, diseased or unwanted plants from your yard.
