Function & Environmental Impacts:

What does it do?
Macerates and dehydrates organic waste, reducing its volume by 60–80%, producing a dry, compostable, pathogen-free, soil-like material.

Environmental Benefits:

o  Diverts waste from landfills

o  Reduces methane emissions

o  Cuts or eliminates traditional waste hauling

Acceptable Input Materials:

What can go in?

o  Raw/cooked meat, seafood, dairy

o  Fruits, vegetables (including skins, pits)

o  Bones, citrus, starches, sugars, liquids (max ~30% per batch)

What needs caution?

o  Very fibrous, greasy, or oily items → May need extra cycles

o  High-fat/oily waste (FOG) → Mix with absorbents like cardboard or leave prior batch remnants

Managing Difficult Inputs:

Too much starch, sugar, or liquid?

Balance with:

o  Coffee grounds or coconut coir

o  Vinegar (30–75% acetic acid; use 64 oz per 80L or 80 lbs)

High FOG content?

o  Combine with dry absorbent organic materials

o  Leave previous batch residue of up to 20%

o  Use compostable paper/cardboard

Odor & Safety:

Does it smell?

No. Air is filtered through water and released as clean vapor.

Is the output safe?

Yes. Heated to over 160°F, killing pathogens. The final product is stable and safe to handle upon completion of the cycle.

Discharged Material Uses:

What can I do with it?

o  Compost on-site or off-site

o  Add to organic waste bins

o  Use as feedstock*

o  Use in industrial applications

*Using as feedstock may be subject to local laws. Please check locally.

Installation & Operation:

Power:

o  3-phase (single-phase options available for ES60 and ES80)

Drainage:

o  Required for potable water discharge

Ventilation & Location:

o  Temp range: 32°F–110°F (0°C–44°C)

o  Avoid direct/prolonged moisture

o  Suitable for indoor, covered outdoor, or loading docks
