Abstract

The composting plants for source separated household waste in Aarhus, Denmark, and Creusot-Montceau, France, are designed for the newly developed and patented Compodan process. The plant in Aarhus was put into operation in March 1995. The Compodan process features rapid process set-off, uniform process conditions and a built-in biofilter. In the reactor, the waste admitted on a daily basis is decomposed in 35 days.
