Compsting tunnels and bioreactors

What is tunnel composting?

Tunnel composting facilities allow for the processing of green waste, biodegradable waste from selective collection, and sewage sludge. Tunnel composting facilities are built as modular structures, allowing the composting process to be carried out in different stages with the possibility of modular expansion of the facility. The COMPObox technology eliminates the generation of unpleasant odors while ensuring ideal compost quality.

The roofs are made as an arched structure of closed profiles entirely coated with a hot-dip galvanized coating, with no mechanical processing. All assembly joints are made using A2/A4 stainless steel.

What are bioreactors?

Bioreactors are devices or systems that enable biological processes to be carried out under controlled conditions. In short, they are “reactors” where reactions involving living organisms or their products (e.g., enzymes) take place.

In a bioreactor, factors such as the following can be precisely controlled:

  • temperature,
  • pH,
  • oxygen concentration,
  • nutrient concentration,
  • mixing and aeration.

What to know before you decide on roofing for a composting facility?

The roofing for the composting facility is entirely prefabricated from PVC membrane material, which ensures very high quality, accuracy, and aesthetic execution. The roofing for COMPObox tunnel composting facilities is characterized by being fully sealed during the biological decomposition process and resistant to a corrosive environment.

Grimar has completed the construction of 97 bays/bins with a total built-up area of over 20,000m². The construction projects were carried out in Poland, Romania, Spain, and Germany.
