The Turbo Separator is a flexible de-packaging system, developed to remove products from their packaging, releasing them for recycling or disposal.
System Overview
The Turbo Separator separates packaged food waste into two clean streams:
- Organics: 99%+ purity, suitable for anaerobic digestion, composting, or stock feed
- Packaging: clean and recyclable or disposable
Key Benefits
* No shredding – packaging is gently opened, preserving organics
* Dry separation – water is optional, not required
* Stainless steel body for wet environments
* Easy paddle and screen maintenance
* Clean separation ensures maximum material recovery
