It is estimated that in an average household, material suitable for composting accounts for over 40% of all waste. Keeping compost is one of the pillars of ecological life. Composting is a natural method of disposal and management of organic waste. It consists of two main processes - mineralization under aerobic conditions and humification. It allows you to produce less waste and produce valuable fertilizer for organic plants. The project was created for everyday use in small residential spaces. It aims to change habits, behaviours and popularize the practice of composting, by changing the use process to more friendly and increasing the visual attractiveness of the product. Thanks to the modularity, it takes up little space and allows you to process a large amount of waste. Composter construction guarantees good oxygenation of the compost, and the carbon filter protects against an odour.
