IMC WasteStation - F79/010

Features

Food waste is a major problem for any organisation that produces it. It’s notoriously difficult to process and dispose of safely and efficiently and is the most likely waste stream to contaminate other waste fractions.

Food waste typically represents around 40% of total commercial catering waste. Of this 40%, approximately 77% is liquid. WasteStation grinds the food waste into fine particles, these particles feed directly into the built-in dewatering system. Through centrifugal action, the WasteStation forces out the excess liquid from the macerated waste.

This “grey water” is fed directly to drain, the resulting solid fraction of the food waste is collected in small, easily managed, lidded bins, ready for onward processing

Key Features

• Transport Savings: Reduce waste collection costs by up to 80% by reducing the food waste volume and weight requiring collection.
• Storage Savings: By reducing the waste volume, on-site waste storage facility requirements are also reduced.
• Labour Savings: The self-cleaning system reduces staff time managing and processing any food waste.
• Energy Savings: Compact design and short processing times ensure low operating costs and minimal use of kitchen floor space.
• Higher Capture Rate: High capture rates improve the quality of the "grey water" going to drain (less suspended solid particles), aiding local water authority approval.
• Self Rinse System: Following each operation the machine undertakes a quick rinse cycle preventing any build up of food.
• Fully Enclosed System: Excludes food waste from all unwanted areas, keeping the machine clean and free of waste and reducing operational noise.
• Self Cleaning Operation: WasteStation can undertake a thorough autonomous cleaning routine, ensuring the whole system is free of food and grease, vastly reducing the labour time required to operate the machine.
• Self Emptying: This eliminates the need for staff to empty the auger assembly reducing labour times required to operate the machine.
• Visual Control Panel: Advantageous in a noisy kitchen environment.
• WasteStation: Incorporates a simple LED display to allow monitoring of the state of the equipment during each operation.
• Intelligent Electronic Sensor: Detects when the bin is full.
