Reject removal from organic substrate

Pre-treatment of household waste with efficient removal of plastics and grit.

Our Solution:

For the bioenergy industry, Cellwood offers solutions for pre-treatment of organic waste – transforming it into a slurry. The organic material comes from the food and agricultural industries, or from household waste collected by municipalities. After pre-treatment, the substrate can be digested into biogas – which is converted into electricity or used as fuel for vehicles.

Our solution can take care of incoming waste that includes packaging material and other non-organic contaminants – such as plastics, metals, sand and glass. The reject is efficiently removed, resulting in the cleanest substrate on the market. Our concept is based on four different treatment steps: dissolving, screening, separation and disintegration. They can be combined into a full process or installed as stand-alone upgrades in existing plants.

Key Benefits:

  • Municipal handling of organic household waste can be sorted into plastic bags, as our process removes the plastics efficiently.
  • Supermarket waste including high amounts of packaging material is efficiently cleaned.
  • Sand and glass is separated from the substrate and prevented from accumulating in tanks and digesters.
  • A disintegrated material increases the gas potential.
  • As the substrate from our process has a low reject content, the digestate fulfills law requirements for use as agricultural fertilizer.
