What Is Commercial Compost Windrow Turning Equipment?
For many commercial organics recycling facilities, compost windrow turning equipment is vital for transforming green waste, food waste, and other organics into market-ready compost products. A windrow turner mixes the organic material to improve ventilation and even moisture and nutrient variances within windrow piles.
A windrow turner moves over the top of long, heaped rows of mixed organics material, utilizing a horizontally rotating drum equipped with mixing elements. The drum aerates the pile by moving the hot material from the inside to the outside. This mechanical agitation mixes and oxygenates the composting substrates and accelerates the decomposition process by ensuring uniform exposure to oxygen, which is essential for transforming organic waste into nutrient-rich compost.
Komptech Topturn X series turners are engineered to create ideally structured windrows that enable airflow inside piles, reduce odors, and maximize site space. These turners boost the decomposition process, producing premium-quality compost products quickly and at lower costs. Click to read our latest article titled "What Is Commercial Composting?".
