The WasteMaster on-site food waste conversion system removes the burden of food waste management and disposal for restaurants and other catering suppliers and provides a clean and sustainable alternative to landfill disposal, for the benefit of our environment.
Currently operating in hotel restaurants, hospital catering departments, catering institutions and hospitality catering services, WasteMaster accelerates the decomposition of food and organic waste in less than 24 hours, reducing its volume by up to 80 per cent and converting it without the addition of water or other additives, into a dry, odourless, high calorific-value useful residual material, which will not be discharged into sewers and water courses.
Ideal for medium-volume food waste producers including large restaurants and other catering providers, the compact WasteMaster system can be installed easily in a convenient area close to a kitchen without the need for plumbing or other services, just a three-phase power supply and an air outlet.
Feedback from WasteMaster users has been very positive and the Head Chef of Whittlebury Park, Craig Rose, says: “The system has really improved the efficiency of our food waste management while also minimising the environmental impact of this waste. “
Whittlebury Park’s first trial machine was installed in a convenient area at the rear of the main building in 2017. Now part of the daily waste processing cycle, the latest WasteMaster model, installed in August 2018, currently processes between three and six tonnes per month. WasteMaster’s diagnostic reporting system confirms the actual volumes of food waste being produced to help identify where training may be required to reduce food waste generation.
WasteMaster is supplied as a managed service and the food waste processing cycle is remotely monitored continuously to ensure smooth-running performance. The system has an automatic bin loader to minimise manual handling and maximise health and safety and as well as indicating when it is full, it will unload automatically when the process has finished.
For every two tonnes of food waste fed into the WasteMaster and diverted from landfill, around 3.2 tonnes of greenhouse gases are prevented. The small quantity of residual material remaining at the end of the conversion process can be used for green energy production through anaerobic digestion and other positive purposes depending on the composition of the feed stock.
