Organic/Food Waste Dewatering Screw Press, Gujarat, India

Organic/Food Waste Dewatering Screw Press


The organic waste stream from vegetable markets, restaurants, and homes often contains a high proportion of wet waste, making it inefficient to store, transport, or process without significant volume reduction. Our Dewatering Screw Press is designed to address these challenges, providing a reliable solution for dewatering organic food waste, ensuring that waste is processed efficiently and in an environmentally friendly manner.

Nature of the Material

Organic food waste, including vegetable scraps, fruit peels, and restaurant waste, typically has a high moisture content. The material is organic, fibrous, and often contains a mix of wet and dry elements. These types of waste can decompose quickly and become a breeding ground for pests and odors, making their handling and disposal more complicated.

Key Benefits

  1. Massive Volume Reduction: One of the most significant advantages of using the Dewatering Screw Press for organic waste is the dramatic reduction in waste volume. The high moisture content in food waste is extracted, reducing the volume by more than 60%. This makes handling, transportation, and further processing much more manageable and cost-effective.
  2. Odor and Decomposition Control: The dewatered material becomes much drier and does not decompose or produce strong odors. As a result, there is no attraction of flies or other pests, making the waste safer and cleaner to handle.

The Dewatering Process

Organic waste is fed into the press directly, where it undergoes mechanical dewatering. The screw press gradually applies pressure, extracting the free water from the waste material, reducing its moisture content significantly.

Unlike other applications, no polymer dosing is required for this process. The simple yet effective mechanism of the Dewatering Screw Press works efficiently even with highly fibrous food waste materials. The result is a dry, compact output that is easier to manage and store.
