Composting
At OREZ, we leverage several composting technologies to efficiently convert organic waste into premium-grade compost, with In-Vessel Composting (IVC) offering maximum efficiencies.
In-vessel Composting (IVC)
In-vessel Composting is a highly efficient, enclosed composting technology designed to process organic waste in a controlled environment. This system optimizes key factors like temperature, aeration / oxygen, and moisture within sealed boxes or tunnels, ensuring rapid and consistent decomposition. IVC minimises odours, contains condensate and leachate and provides precise control over the composting process guaranteeing pasteurisation and compliance through continuous data tracking. With its compact footprint and ability to meet strict environmental regulations, in-vessel composting is a sustainable solution for transforming a wide range of organic waste streams (including digestate) into high-quality compost.

Aerated Static Pile (ASP)
Aerated Static Pile composting is an advanced technology that accelerates the decomposition of organic materials by actively supplying air through a network of pipes beneath the compost pile. This controlled aeration process optimizes oxygen levels and temperature, ensuring efficient, composting with minimal manual turning. ASP is ideal for high-volume organic waste processing, delivering consistent, high-quality compost while reducing processing time.
Covered Aerated Static Pile (CASP)
Covered aerated static pile is an improved form of ASP. This system allows for an efficient composting process at a lower investment, but also lower performances than an in-vessel system, but with more control and efficiency than ASP.
The system includes an automatic carriage to remove and install membrane covers or tarps, ensuring minimized operator effort and maximized productivity.
Advantages of a CASP over ASP are; improved odour control, enhanced moisture retention, better temperature control, smaller leachate ponds.
