Design of Fruit and Vegetable Waste Management System

The dewatering system for waste fruits and vegetables often includes the following components:

1. Feeding System

The feeding system is responsible for transferring the fruit and vegetable waste into the screw press for further processing. We offer two options for feeding system: garbage bin elevator or a conveyor belt. You can choose a suitable feeding method according to the processing volume.

2. Shredder or Crusher

This equipment is designed to break down the fruit and vegetable waste into smaller pieces. The shredder can be integrated with the screw press machine or used separately. At Tianzhong Machinery, we offer organic waste crusher machines to choose from. With a modular design, it can be tailored to different material characteristics and capacity requirements.

3. Screw

The screw is the core component of the machine for dewatering and separating the waste materials. It employs a mechanical extrusion mechanism to squeeze out excess moisture and extract liquids from the waste fruits and vegetables. We have single screw press and twin screw press to choose from, according to the material fiber content.

4. Screen

The screen allows for filtering out solid waste from the liquid. The opening size of our screen ranges from 0.3mm to 1.0mm, depending on the properties of the materials. The screen and screw press are made of corrosion-resistant 304 stainless steel to prolong the service life of the equipment.

Why Use Dewatering Machine in Fruit & Vegetable Waste Management?

Dewatering machines play a crucial role in fruit and vegetable waste management for several reasons. Here are some key benefits:

1. Reduced Waste Volume

Dewatering food waste significantly reduces its volume by removing excess moisture. This reduction in volume makes it easier and more cost-saving in store, transportation, and disposal of the waste.

2. Turning Waste into Valuable Products

The dewatered solid materials can be further processed into valuable resources which can also bring you economic benefits, for example,

  • Composting: Dewatered food/fruit/vegetable waste can be composted into organic fertilizer.
  • Biogas production: Dewatered fruit and vegetable waste is a kind of raw material for anaerobic digestion to convert organic matter into biogas.
  • Animal Feed: The dewatered solids can be used as animal feed in livestock farming.

3. Environmental Benefits

Dewatering organic waste can reduce pollution to the environment, for example,

  • Dewatering food waste reduces the amount of waste sent to landfills.
  • Soil and Water Protection: Properly managing food waste through dewatering prevents the leaching of harmful substances into the soil and water bodies.
