Food waste typically represents around 40% of total commercial catering waste. Of this 40%, approximately 77% is liquid. The WasteStation Compact grinds the food waste into fine particles, these particles feed directly into the built-in dewatering system. Through centrifugal action, the WasteStation forces out the excess liquid from the macerated waste.

This ¿grey water¿ is fed directly to drain, the resulting solid fraction of the food waste is collected in small, easily managed, lidded bins, ready for onward processing.
