The Clivus Multrum™ composting tank is formed in UV-resistant rotomoulded
polyethylene and the tank is internally divided into a waste chamber and
finished compost chamber.
The waste chamber is supplied with stainless steel front baffle & air ducts and
a polyethylene rear air baffle.
An inspection door at the front of the chamber also facilitates maintenance of
the compost pile.
The finished compost chamber at the front of the tank is fitted with a full-width
access lid to permit easy removal of compost.
A drain fitting is provided in the finished compost chamber to permit draining
of any excess liquid end product. An air inlet vent with insect screen is also
provided in this compartment.
All fasteners are of stainless steel. Other minor fittings are of corrosion
resistant materials.
All tank models may be partially buried to a depth not greater than the
access door flange at the front of the tank.
The nominal daily and annual capacities assume an annual mean temperature
of 18°C or above. Actual capacity reduces with temperature and below an
annual mean of 13°C the use of natural heating and/or worms may be required.
