Experimental Study on Waste Shredder

Abstract

Mechanical systems are used in non-biological systems and heat to remove water and to reduce the volume and weight of the waste food. The water content from the food is removed by means of grinding food waste through shredders producing a semi solid product with the presence of coffee ground. This can also be sent to further processing or used as a feedstock. In order to breakdown food waste into small range of particles to make it a useful biomass product we use dehydrators. Thus, after testing its proven that it can be used directly on soil to increase the fertility rate as well as it is used as a compost feedstock.
