Design and Test of the Smart Composter Controlled by Sensors

Abstract

Treatment of organic wastes in Morocco remains a sector that consumes large budgets and which increases with demographic growth without finding a targeted and relevant solution until today. In this work we present the study, the design and the realization of a new composter destined to convert the residues food and all type of organic wastes in situ (to eliminate transport charges) to obtain a mature compost with high quality in 4 weeks. This system is based on the intern design and automated and optimized control of all operating parameters. This solution will reduce up to 80% of waste produced per day in the city and will be an effective tool for the provincial managers; the prototype has been validated in the field.
