What the TMK-500 Composter Does
The TMK-500 is equipped with the latest PLC technologies and automation control systems, and it decomposes 500 to 550 kg of organic food waste in an expected 21 to 24 hours using stage-in-craft indirect heating and dry composting. Its built-in bin lifter means staff are not lifting wheelie bins by hand, which is the practical difference at this size. It is described as designed for larger requirements in medical outlets and comes with a 3 year warranty.
