SPECS

The HotRot Screwtech dewatering unit should be positioned in a waste reception building or under a roofed area.

​

Another key advantage of using the HotRot Screwtech dewatering sorting table is that it allows the operator to produce material to be fed to the HotRot unit that is of consistent moisture content. This significantly improves the overall efficiency of the composting system and removes some of the variability that may occur between different operators.

HOTROT SCREWTECH DEWATERING

SORTING TABLE

The HotRot Screwtech dewatering sorting table consists of a screw press integrated into a stainless steel food sorting table on to which waste can be tipped using a bin-lifter. The operator is able to inspect the waste tipped onto the table and remove any gross contamination before pushing the material off the table and into the dewatering screw.

​

The press unit consists of a press frame or table, material intake opening and pressing area, conveyor and press screw, press water drain pan and drain pipe, support structure and geared motor. The screw press is designed as a welded stainless steel structure treated by total immersion pickling. The screw press is supplied in two basic sizes 250- and 400-series depending on throughput.
