Waste to Animal Feed by TMK Composter

Solution

Waste to Animal Feed

Because the material processed is mostly food and organic waste, a second output route is animal feed rather than soil amendment.

01

The principle

Items processed in organic waste composting machines are mostly food and organic waste, which means they can be used to make animal feed as well as compost.

02

Why the same equipment serves both

The pre-treatment stages are identical: segregation into wet and dry fractions, shredding to 8–10 mm, and dewatering. What changes is the process recipe and what happens to the material after the vessel.

03

What to confirm before specifying it

Feed use is governed by national animal by-product rules that differ by market. Confirm the permitted input streams and required thermal treatment with your local authority before designing the line.
