Expanding Site Capacity by Adding Aerated Composting to Turned Windrow Operations

Windham Solid Waste Management District (WSWMD) has operated a composting facility using turned windrow methods since 2012. The site manages source-separated food scraps, food processing residuals, leaves, wood chips, and other feedstocks, and sells screened compost as “Brattlegrow.” The site needs to expand its capacity to meet the increased volume of food scraps following the implementation of Act 148, and change its status from a small certified facility to a permitted medium-scale composting facility. This presentation described the planning and design process to integrate compost aeration and heat recovery (CAHR) in order to increase the space and labor efficiency of operations on a limited footprint. The regulatory, design, planning, fundraising, and other development work to identify an economical infrastructure and operating plan was also discussed.
