How to start organic waste fermentation with crawler type composter?

As mentioned above, crawler type compost machine mainly employs the ground windrow fermentation method. In this process, organic materials will be piled into long windrows, which have a width of 2-3m and a height of 0.6-1m. Then crawler type composter will work to turn and stir material windrows. In this way, microorganisms in material can get enough oxygen to support them to decompose harmful substances. And it also contributes to the dissipation of excessive heat in material, this can prevent the death of beneficial bacteria. This will create a better environment for the aerobic fermentation of your organic fertilizer making. This compost turner machine not only ferments faster than deep groove type, but also effectively prevents the production of harmful and odorous gases during fermentation. Such as hydrogen sulfide, amine gas, etc. This will make your organic fertilizer production be in line with environmental protection requirements.

Which model of crawler type composter is more suitable for you?


How often to turn material while composting with crawler type composter?

Generally speaking, the frequency of organic material turning is not fixed. It is determined by your actual conditions, especially the temperature and the oxygen content of organic materials. During composting, it is advisable to keep the material temperature at 60℃-75℃ and oxygen content at 5%-15%.

Usually, the composting process can be divided into parts, temperature raising period, high temperature period and temperature falling period. In temperature raising period, we recommend you turn materials once a day. This can make the temperature increase to 60℃ quickly, which can kill harmful substances in materials. During the high temperature period, it is advisable to turn over the raw materials once every 2-3 days. And if you want to shorten the fermentation time, you can increase the turning frequency. But you must pay attention to the material temperature, which cannot be higher than 75℃. Then when the raw material temperature no longer rises, the compost is finished. You can transport them to the aging area or the next process.
