What the TMK-30 Composter Does
The TMK-30 is a biocomposter that converts food waste into fertilizer suitable for agricultural use, in a self-contained continuous feed system that reduces the amount by 90 percent. It is manufactured from stainless steel with a manual top-loading door and a front-opening door for harvesting compost every 10 to 14 days. It runs off a standard plug and needs ventilation to the outside or a connection to a suitable waste pipe, which is why the wash-up area, a storeroom or a covered bin area suits it.

Minimalist design with a compact footprint that takes minimal floor space
