Basics

  • In small home or commercial form, is typicall mounted in a sink, and reffered to as a "Garbage Disposal"
  • Is essentially a shredder/mill for wet waste (typically direct feed, but could in theory be plumbed)
  • The goal is to turn organic waste (typically unused parts of ingredients such as peels, stalks etc, or scrapings from plates) into Sewage
  • Can introduce organic content that is typically problematic for older wastewater treatment plants, but may be BENEFICIAL to Methane Biodigesters etc
  • Is also moresocially acceptable / "clean" than compost "trashcans"
  • May also have use for making wet feedstocks into a Slurry for direct use, or drying/powderisation in various industrial processes
