The Ridan Composter
How it works?
The Ridan is an in-vessel, constant throughput thermal food waste composter. This means that as food waste is loaded at one end and the handle is rotated, it travels through the Ridan and heats up, composting in stages, before automatically emerging from the outlet at the other end.
The composting process has developed to become a two-stage process, so once the food waste has been through the Ridan Composter (and completed the thermophyllic stage) to obtain a good growing medium it must be put in a maturation bin for a further 2 to 3 months before use.
