Case Study 08 - Eco Bin 1.0

Eco Bin 1.0

The eco bin is a dumpster that processes organic waste into fertilizer. It is designed to take food and other organic waste from restaurants, grocery stores, stadiums, universities and small towns. Through anaerobic digestion the organics see a 75% breakdown in 45 days. This means it can process 24-48 tons of organics per year and only needs emptied a few times annually. The effluent that is removed is an enzyme rich super fertilizer that can be applied to fields. The enzymes promote a healthy soil biome and rejuvenate depleted soils.
