WTT specializes in composting of organic waste. Composting is the natural process of recycling organic matter, such as leaves and food scraps, into a valuable fertilizer that can enrich soil and plants. Organic waste that is converted to compost can be used by local farmers or for other agricultural applications. In addition, it can also be turned into refuse derived fuel.<\/p>\n<\/div>

The WTT in-vessel composting technology is an advanced and robust system that ensures maximum process efficiency and minimal emissions.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

\u201cWhat I really liked in working with WTT is the practical approach, the direct consultation structure and keeping the customer perspective in mind. And they do what they promise.\u201c<\/h3><\/div>

Why Compost<\/h2><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Recycle Nutrients<\/h3><\/div>

Compost and anaerobic digestion plants support recycling of major plant nutrients, some of them are infinite!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Improve Soil<\/h3><\/div>

Compost can improve soil by increasing organic matter levels, creating better soil productivity and supports ecosystems.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Produce Biogas<\/h3><\/div>

Biogas can be produced with anaerobic digestion plants, which can be used for the production of electricity or to replace natural gas.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Reduce GHG Emissions<\/h3><\/div>

The plants support the reduction of greenhouse gases that would be emitted when waste is going to landfill.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Replace Peat<\/h3><\/div>

The use of specialty compost and digestate products can replace horticultural peat use.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Sequester Carbon<\/h3><\/div>

Compost supports the soil to sequester carbon and reduces the need for inorganic nitrogen fertilizers.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Composting Made Easy<\/h2><\/div>

WTT\u2019s biological tunnel process is individually controlled in order to provide each batch with a tailor-made treatment. WTT\u2019s fully automated process allows the operator to set process parameters to adapt different waste categories and seasonal influences. Its modular construction and versatile control software interface allows the same facility to treat organic waste optimally in short a period of time, maximizing processing efficiency and keeping environmental conditions strictly under control.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

In-Vessel Composting<\/h3><\/div>

WTT designs in-vessel technologies, this means that the composting process takes place in completely closed (concrete) vessels; so called tunnels. Over the past 25 years WTT has built over 1300 tunnels. Throughout this time, WTT has continuously improved the design and identi capital and operating costs. One of the major advantages of composting in tunnels is that it is fast. The tunnels are individually controlled with forced aeration to process organic waste into compost. Each composting tunnel has its own aeration system, water and heating modules and is accompanied with the required instrumentation. Process and odour control is optimal, resulting in homogenic pasteurizations and degradation of organics. The whole configuration is included into a skid for faster installation, easier transport to site and simplified commissioning. The complete tunner system is remotely actuated and controlled by a SCADA visualization system. This allows site operators to set process parameters to be able to adapt to different waste streams and seasonal fluctuations.<\/p>\n<\/div>
