ABSTRACT:
The present invention discloses a bioreactor for aerobically composting organic waste. The bioreactor includes a container for supporting the organic waste, a rotatably positioned lid cover for enclosing the container, a mixing assembly slidably mounted to the lid cover, and an aeration system for promoting the aerobic composting process. The mixing assembly is mounted to the lid cover using a slide system which permits the mixing auger to move radially within the container. The mixing assembly includes a mixing auger and a motor for rotating the mixing auger. Preferably, the mixing auger is configured with sharp cutting edges to facilitate grinding of the composting organic waste.
