"Green cone" processes all types of food waste Bashny.Net

Composting is a great way of getting rid of vegetable and fruit food waste and saturation of the soil useful for plant nutrients. However, there are still many remnants of food that cannot be composted, such as meat and bones. "Green cone" (Green Cone) developed by Compostec, solves this problem by using solar energy to pererabotat all kinds of food waste.





"Green cone" made of plastic, obtained from recycled materials, and designed for use in orchards and gardens. The user drops the food waste into the trash, hidden in the cone, which acts as a processing chamber, and also allows worms and other beneficial microorganisms to move in and help the composting process.

Device with double walls absorbs heat from the sun, allows the oxygen to circulate in the processing chamber to accelerate the decay of organic materials. In warm weather, the device can process two pounds of food waste daily. Compostec also offers a powder for the cold weather.





"Green cone" can process some fish, bread, dairy products along with food waste, which, as a rule, use for compost, coffee grounds or egg shells. The developer recommends not to add grass clippings in the device.





The device will cost around $ 109, but some canadian cities have begun to subsidize the purchase of "Green cones" for its residents. The County of Oxford province of Ontario provides for the purchase of "Green cones" for $ 40 to reduce the environmental impact of landfills of food waste. published
