Terex Ecotec offers an impressive range of recycling equipment available in various sizes to meet customer needs in compost and organics processing. Our solutions create high-quality compost that can be used as a soil conditioner, fertilizer or homogenous fuel to be burned for energy.

The high-speed grinder is the first step in the process and is crucial for preparing green waste. The shredded material will contain oversize particles that help create cavities in the windrow, promoting airflow to achieve the necessary level of decomposition. Terex Ecotec high-speed grinders are equipped with overband magnets for effective removal of ferrous metals in the waste stream.

The shredded material is formed into windrows, which are turned several times to promote air circulation and accelerate the decomposition process.

Once the windrows have been converted into homogenized compost, it is ready for screening, typically with a trommel screen. Terex Ecotec trommel screens represent the pinnacle of modern trommel design, efficiently removing impurities and contaminants to produce high-quality compost. The air-vac system installed on the trommel oversize conveyor effectively removes foils and plastic. Terex Ecotec trommels offer unrivaled application flexibility, high production rates and excellent serviceability. Our trommels effectively screen soil and overburden as well.

For years, Terex Ecotec products have proven their worth in compost applications, providing maximum advantage through machine customisation and packaged solutions. This gives you complete control over the material preparation, composting process and the final product.
