Benefits of X-Act In-Vessel Composting

  1. The X-Act In-Vessel Composting System has the fastest composting time—it can compost organic waste in as little as 3 days.  Compare this to traditional methods that can take upwards of a year!

  2. Less manpower is required because the rotating vessel does all the work—one man can operate the entire process.

  3. The X-Act Composter uses a very, very low horsepower motor to operate.

  4. Pathogen and virus destruction are the foundations of our composting system.  X-Act In-Vessel Composting follows the guidelines set down by the EPA to ensure pathogen and virus kill.

  5. The vessel is insulated with 3” of insulation which helps retain the high operating temperatures of 130°F+ (55°C+) required (this is the EPA standard for pathogen kill—3 days at 130°F).  Because of the insulation, the X-Act vessel does not need to be housed in a building, but the compost should be stored under cover. 

  6. The process is natural and requires no added heat.

  7. Less land is required with in-vessel because the composting process occurs within the vessel, and less feedstock piles are required because material is processed so fast.

  8. Site requirements are minimal because of the compact size of the system, and because what little condensates are present are completely captured.

  9. Fantastic compost is the result because changeable weather conditions are  eliminated, and all the factors needed for great composting are optimized and controlled.  The resulting compost is clean, top grade and will meet EPA standards. 

    Automated discharge door reduces labor
    and allows for easy unloading.
    The discharge can be PLC controlled
    to allow for automatic unloading if desired.

    The compost is:
    • Class A
    • Stable
    • Pathogen-free
    • Insect larvae-free
    • Odorless
    • Weed seed-free
  1. Odor is a non-issue since the entire decompostion process takes place in the vessel and occurs very quickly. 
    Plus, stock piles of odorous waste are eliminated.

  2. Composting the X-Act System way reduces the volume of waste.

  3. Vectors, such as flies, rodents and birds, are drastically reduced because volatile organic material is completely decomposed.
