The Earth Bin
Commercial
Duty Compost System
The Earth Bin is designed to fill the capacity gap between the Earth Tub and the Containerized Compost System. Depending on the number of units, between .5 to 5 tons per day can be composted with this system. The Earth Bin is an automated version of the Earth Tub with a much larger vessel. Using the proven mixing capacity of the inclined auger, the Earth Bin has automated the motion to create one of the simplest in-vessel composters on the market. The inclined auger mixes and advance s the compost down the vessel with each pass. The control panel allows the operator to select the number of times per day that the compost is mixed as well as add moisture via a sprayer on the mixer.
The Earth Bin Plug Flow Design

Plug flow means that raw waste is loaded into one end of the vessel and compost comes out the other end. The unique design of the Earth Bin allows a single inclined auger to both mix, advance and discharge the compost from the vessel.
