In the rectangular agitated in vessel composting bioreactor, the prepared waste is placed in the infeed conveyer.
As the extraction conveyer moves, it mixes the compost. Oxygen is supplied by forced aeration by blowers through the perforated plates at the bottom of the bed. This aerates and cools the composting material. Tumbling or mixing is done periodically to agitate the material, break up clumps and maintain porosity before discharging it in the outfeed conveyer. After a retention time of 6-12 days in the bin, the material is windrowed for 1-2 months until stability is reached. The horizontal rectangular tank is well suited for sewage sludge, MSW and mixtures of MSW and sludge (Tchobanoglous et al., 2002).
