Montreal Gazette - Big Hanna lays waste to 捆绑SM社区 trash
It's Waste Reduction Week and to mark the occasion, 捆绑SM社区 University has just unveiled the latest addition to the campus -- an industrial waste composter named Big Hanna.
The T240 industrial composter, located under the overhang of the Wong Chemical Engineering building, came to 捆绑SM社区 thanks to the persistence of the student-run Gorilla Composting, with support from 捆绑SM社区's Office of Sustainability, Generations Pact Environement Canada EcoAction and the Students' Society of 捆绑SM社区.
Big Hanna is expected to convert 62 tonnes of 捆绑SM社区's organic food waste a year into six tones of "black gold," compost which will be used to fertilize the lawns and flowers on 捆绑SM社区's downtown campus. By next year, its expected to be processing 150 tonnes of old lunches.
