 To demonstrate proper waste management through
the various processes involved in the solid waste
management facility
 To construct and operate a pilot-scale solid waste
management facility using the Lagon Group n.v.
technology
 To convert the segregated waste materials into
useful products (methane gas and biofertilizer)
using the ITDI-DOST technologies (Biogas Digester
and Bioreactor)
 To determine the technical viability and
performance efficiency of the facility through a
pilot-scale set up
 Heavy duty 5 hp
mechanical
shredder
 Can shred
organic
materials
(trunks, barks,
agricultural
wastes, plastics,
etc.)
 Serves as bulk
unsorted wastes
feed tank with wide
entry and tapered
to provide a narrow
bottom outlet for
the wastes to freely
flow at controlled
rate and convey to
the washing
compartment.
 Two belt
conveyors with
gear motors are
used to transport
the wastes and
simultaneously 1ST Conveyor
sorting of wastes
is performed.

2nd Conveyor
 Partly sorted
wastes is
introduced
into the
washing
compartmen
t for
cleaning and
disinfection
A magnet will be
Installed at the
second conveyor
belt for the
removal of metal
component in the
wastes stream
after washing.
 Forthe storage
of recyclable
materials after
sorting and
segregation.
 Serves as storage
for biodegradable Gas Holder

materials (kitchen
wastes, animal
manure,
agricultural 18 m3 Biogas
organic materials, Digester
etc.) for the
production of
methane gas and Portable Biogas
biofertilizer Digester

13 hp Biogas and
NEA EFA LPG Converted
 Filters

 Consists of a layer of
filter materials Inlet
involved in the Outle
treatment of t
wastewater from the
washing
compartment. It is
also used in the
removal of oil and
grease Filtration Tank
 Use in the storage
of treated water
wherein the
treated water is
recycled back into
the washing
compartment for
cleaning of the
incoming wastes.
