Treatment of Municipal Solid Waste

Anaerobic digestion

Anaerobic digestion is the most economically and ecologically viable treatment method for certain organic waste.

The generation of renewable energy and, depending on input material, usable liquid fertilisers, are key arguments in favour of the anaerobic digestion process.

 

Focus on preparation

The emphasis for Komptech lies with complex treatment stages. The input dictates whether pulper or pressing processes are used.

When using the pulper process, a substrate for digestion from waste having high organic content. This is then added to the wet anaerobic digestion process. The process may be used for input material with high contrary or packaging content, as well as for household and residual waste.

The pressing process is the perfect solution for wet bio-waste, leftovers, etc. Separation gives a liquid fraction for wet anaerobic digestion and a dry fraction for composting.

Komptech also provides tried-and-tested components for the dry anaerobic digestion process.
