If you are mulling over the possibility of composting solid organics, please do check with any composting authority such as the Composting Association of the UK, Cornell University, or the US Composting Council. There you will learn that the ideal dry matter content for successful composting of any organic material is 35%. If, in your operation, the dry matter is lower, you will also find an abundance of information about suitable amendments and much, much more. Good information is at hand, so seek it out. It goes with out saying, if XACT can be of any help, please feel free to give us a shout. Many thanks. D
Compact BioReactor with Mixer & Generator on Trailer
Compact BioReactors like this one can have a big impact on a school’s organic waste management challenges. It has fast throughput, produces stable compost in 4 to 7 days, produces no odors or emissions. It is suitable for situations where 1 to 4 cubic yards of waste need to be processed daily. This BioReactor has a friction drive and it is powered by a 1.5 hp motor.
This technology is ideal for schools or universities. If you are concerned about teaching good environmental values and indeed acting in an environmentally responsible way, then the BioReactor could be just what you need. Why not consider this unit for a pilot project. As you can see, the footprint required is pint sized, and it is easy to use, clean and quiet to operate, and controls odors. The opportunity to save hauling costs and enhance your “Green” image is available now…so why not find out a more. It would be my pleasure to help answer any questions about how the BioReactor can enhance your leadership in the community and commitment to the environment.
If you compost the residue from the anaerobic digestion process with XACT’s BioReactor, then you will be extracting all the value from the waste. After all, isn’t that what we are going for? The extraction of methane and generation of electricity is great as far as it goes, but there is tremendous value still remaining in the waste from this process. Taking advantage of this value is easy with the composter by XACT. The resulting compost is bankable both from a commodity point of view and soil amendment point of view.
Compost made by the BioReactor is high quality therefore demanding a higher price than average. Or, it replaces sand or sawdust as a bedding material therefore eliminating out-sourced bedding material. Or, compost reconditions crop fields (with numerous benefits) so that fertilizer costs will be reduced. So, please consider composting as the final stage of the anaerobic digester process and reap ALL the benefits. Leave nothing to waste!
Are you frustrated with the tremendous amount of organic waste created in our communities along with the persistent total lack of creativity in ways of disposing of it? Perhaps the answer to this problem can be found in the wisdom of 2 ideas. 1) Think Globally, Act Locally. 2) Grassroots Action. At XACT Systems, where I work, we offer a composting system that will allow you to take action now with an environmentally and economically viable system – on a extremely small footprint – handling the amount of waste per day that you need to – odor control up the wazoo – within the confines of your community. At the core of the system is the BioReactor which converts organic waste into compost NOW. Your concern is our concern and that is why the XACT BioReactor was created….to be part of the solution. I would be very grateful, if you would take a look at this system when you get a free minute. Many thanks. D
Intecnial Debuts XACT BioReactor
The XACT BioReactor had its debut in Brazil at the MERCOAGRO 2010 trade show this past week. Our Brazilian partner, Intecnial, conducted many consultations about the remarkable composting that can be achieved with the BioReactor. Well established in the construction and engineering industry and in a broad spectrum of sectors, Intecnial S.A., a company with over 2000 employees, is now seriously involved in large scale organic waste composting projects. And rightly so–Brazil has a population of 190 million people, and has a growing economy currently ranked 8th in the world. With it’s fast growth, Brazil’s economy is projected in the decade or so to rank among the top 5 in world. Intecnial’s leaders realize that with prosperity comes waste–and lots of it. Because the in-vessel, rotating drum composter technology by XACT offers a sustainable management strategy to reliably and hastily convert solid organic waste to great compost with beneficial properties, it is an excellent “fit” for Intecnial’s and Brazil’s future. Thanks for allowing us to be a part of it!!!
View and share the XACT video of the BioReactor in action on You Tube by using this link:

It only takes 4 minutes to see the video, and in this short time, you will realize what the buzz is about! The rugged drive train, the slow continuous rotation of the vessel, and the robust engineering. If the video intrigues you and you need/want to go visit the site–that would be no problem. It would be our pleasure to show you the ease of composting any solid organic waste with the XACT BioReactor. Feel free to call 800-920-0630 any time for your personal consultation. Many thanks. D
Many communities have set higher standards for waste diversion, yet have not achieved them for one reason or another. What is the target for your community to divert solid organic waste from landfills? Is there progress being made towards meeting those goals? If not, what or who are the obstacles standing in the way?
Composting projects should be getting quicker approvals than they are . How can we move these projects forward?
Many thanks, and keep in touch. D
Here at XACT Systems, we are regularly asked about amendments for composting organic waste. Will I need them? What will I use? How much will I use? You get the picture.
The short answer is…it depends (not useful information). The long answer is that amendments are required when the C:N ratio of the waste itself is not close to the ideal ratio of 25:1. When this is the case, which amendment to use and how much is calculated using the C:N ratio of the amendment in conjunction with that of the waste. The website of Cornell University Composting website is an excellent resource in general and specifically has an index of a multitude of amendments and their typical characteristics (originally developed by the Natural Resource, Agriculture, and Engineering Services ). Or save yourself some time, and let me send you this Table as a PDF.
Just as important from a business stand point, the amendment you most want to use is the one where it costs you nothing to obtain it, or better yet, one that you are being paid to dispose of for a 3rd party.
Please feel free to contact me if you would like to discuss your particular composting challenges and how the in-vessel rotating BioReactor by XACT can serve your purposes. XACT Systems is dedicated to helping you acheive a SUCCESSFUL trouble-free, neighborhood-friendly composting process.
Many thanks. D
Waste handling companies, landfills, and waste haulers looking for strategies to help them define their future success, need to look no further than XACT’s rotating drum composting technology. This progressive composting technology can help the solid waste industry adapt to and take advantage of the regulations requiring organics diversion from landfills that are popping up like dandelions all over the country. Some see these reg’s as the proverbial Black Cloud, but the in-vessel BioReactor is the Silver Lining. The BioReactor by XACT can allow you to capitalize BIG TIME by converting the solid organic waste into very good compost, in very short order, on very little land. Consider this opportunity and you will be able to define your companies future as S-U-C-C-E-S-S!
Check out the new website with the new video of the XACT BioReactor for making compost from waste. Please feel free to contact us and ask for the full length video to show your colleagues and/or boss. It could be the best move you make for the success of your company and you!
