Composter automates rotating drum operation with the newly automated PLC Control Panel with Soft Touch Screen by XACT Systems. The user friendly soft touch screen on the front of the control panel was designed for the BioReactor Composting System in order to give the operator easy access to a wide variety of critical data. Data which is vital to the successful composting of solid organic waste.
Although composting is not a complicated process it is a fairly precise process in terms of balancing the few factors that impact it. The control panel has been developed to provide more accurate monitoring of these factors to ensure the best results. A quick reminder as to what those few factors are: Carbon-Nitrogen ratio, moisture content, oxygen, operating temperatures, and particle size. For a more detailed description of the parameters for successful composting, please follow this link to the XACT Composting System website page describing them.
In addition, the data collected from the monitoring can be sent to the operator’s cell phone or computer 24/7. By making the data “portable”, the operator can be tracking the BioReactor’s operation while eating lunch!
These added features compound the benefits that the XACT BioReactor System already has.

The Soft Touch Screen on the PLC Control Panel allows for easy access to data such as processing temperature, starting/stopping, correct loading (capacity), door opening/closing and more!
Composting Rotating Drum Technology by XACT Systems Inc. has been chosen by BioKamp Co. in Bulgaria. This is great news! We are looking forward to working with our new Bulgarian partners as they embark on a new business venture in the organic waste
BioKamp Bulgaria are new partners of XACT Systems Inc. of Canada. BioKamp is excited to now have the excellent BioReactor- a compositing rotating drum technology – to manufacture and market in the Bulgarian market where there are big opportunities. Welcome aboard gentlemen!
management sector in their country. BioKamp now has rights to manufacture and market the BioReactor Composting System by XACT. The composting rotating drum technology (known as the BioReactor) measured up exactly to the needs of BioKamp. To begin, the Bulgarian company will target the biosolid (biosludge) management industry. Of course, the BioReactor can and is composting many types of organic waste–from food waste to dairy manure. Indeed, BioKamp has every intention to reach out all sectors with this new and innovative waste management solution.
Better organic waste management and diverting waste from landfills is a serious problem worldwide. What to do? Well, the composting rotating drum technology by XACT Systems is proving its worth in many countries around the globe. It is an effective, sustainable and common sense solution to dealing with organic waste.
Please check out this video of the BioReactor in order to better understand the rotational aspect of this in vessel composting technology. Then, consider the possibilities for your company. Many many thanks.

Composting Septic Sludge Tests Prove Successful
Composting septic sludge in 5 days AND making compost that is pathogen free is possible with the BioReactor by XACT Systems Inc. In this testing project, the septic sludge is combined with other materials in order to make a balanced recipe of organics with a C:N ratio in the ideal range (20:1 to 30:1). This is the vital first step in composting solid organic waste quickly and making compost that is pathogen free. The second step is to compost this proper mixture in the BioReactor which is an in vessel rotating drum composter. The composter rotates slowly and constantly. The rotation tumbles the waste material inside the drum and exposes all of the material to the ambient oxygen. The aerobic bacteria which naturally reside in the organic waste will decompose it. The fact that all the bacteria are getting all the oxygen they need to do a great job of breaking down the material means that the waste will compost quickly and with little or no odor. The innovative features of this 5′ diameter x 10′ long BioReactor allow the temperatures of the composting process to hit temperatures of 145 degrees Fahrenheit to 170 degrees Fahrenheit and maintain it there. Once these high temperatures are achieved, the septic sludge is exposed to this heat for 72 hours (as per the protocol stated by the EPA standard for pathogen kill in a composting process). After 5 days, the compost is discharged and it looks and smells like dirt. It will make an excellent soil amendment and be a valuable revenue stream for this composting operation.
Composting Septic Sludge is made easy in the BioReactor. The processing temperatures are running between 145 degrees and 170 degrees.
This BioReactor is 5′ diameter and 10′ long and is currently composting septic sludge.

When you compost solid organic waste using the BioReactor, you will realize economic benefits (always a good thing), and environmental benefits. Converting waste into quality compost allows you to capitalize on the nutrient value of the waste and sell the resulting compost. Because traditional methods of managing these wastes are incurring high costs, are creating health hazards and odor problems in the surrounding communities, there is a need to treat these huge volumes of organic waste with technological innovation.
The BioReactor Composter is a slowly rotating drum that converts any solid organic waste into compost. It complies with the fundamentals of composting* regulations by tightly controlling the parameters of the composting process. This composter makes an ideal environment for the oxygen-loving bacteria to thrive and decompose the material in a highly aerobic process. The BioReactor will compost large volumes of organic waste quickly, and will do so without the occurrence of hazardous leachates or foul doors.
Indeed, the compost bears no resemblance to the waste from which it was produced. This compost has tremendous value if sold in bags or bulk because it makes an excellent soil amendment due to its organic matter and nutrient content. The compost no longer has harmful bacteria in it to cause disease so it can be spread on land close to water sources.
* Composting is defined as a process of biological decomposition of biodegradable organic fraction of the waste, carried out by a diverse population of organisms under controlled aerobic conditions and other parameters (ratio of carbon: nitrogen, moisture, temperature, pH, particle size, porosity, homogeneity of the mixture).
