Make, Model & Classification
Name | WasteMaster |
Model | WM800 |
Classification | Organics Processing |
Operations
Description or Purpose | Australian owned and manufactured, the WM800 processes up to 800kg of putrescible waste to a concentrated residue within 24 hours which has virtually no odour and does not attract rodents. We then collect this material and deliver it to waste water treatment facilities where it is converted via an anaerobic digester into bio-methane which is in-turn used to generate renewable electricity. In this manner your waste is diverted from landfill and into renewable energy. |
Operating Principles | The process for the WM800 is a combination of low heat, agitation and air flow within drum and no need for microorganisms or water to process the food waste. Using patented technology to alter the oxygen being pumped into the drum eliminates harmful bacteria, odour and allows the residue to maintain a high level of calorific and nutrient value. |
Additional Information | The WM800 allows onsite processing of putrescible waste, reducing down to 70-80% of the original volume. This residue can then be used for re purposing. Reduce the number of vehicle movements onsite and avoid sending waste to landfill! |

Approvals Related to Use of Output
Important Note on Composting in NSW
In NSW, applying waste to land – including a processed waste such as compost - or using it as a fuel may trigger various regulatory requirements. Depending on the proposed use you may be required to comply with a Resource Recovery Exemption or need to hold an environment protection licence, and pay the waste levy.
While there is a Compost Exemption (2014) it is important to note that drying or dehydrating food waste, or any other compostable waste, is specifically excluded from consideration under this exemption. Drying or dehydrating equipment uses externally supplied energy to heat and ventilate food waste or any other compostable waste in order to rapidly dry the waste material over a short time period (typically 24 to 48 hours), either with or without the addition of an inoculum. If you are interested in this type of equipment you should refer to the resource recovery exemptions for information on lawful use of outputs.
If it is intended to use the material as a fuel, it must comply with the NSW Energy from Waste Policy Statement. http://www.epa.nsw.gov.au/waste/140056enfromwasteps.htm
