ABSTRACT:
An aerobic digestor for rapidly and efficiently composting waste vegetation and the like has a rotatable drum mounted on a horizontal transverse axis at the midpoint of the length on a frame spacing it above the ground a distance sufficient for rotation; a fixed end of the drum mounts a perforate tube coaxially in the drum between the ends and holes in the fixed end and the removable end of the drum admit air for composting to the perforate tube through adjustable shutters; material being composted in the drum receives air through the tube perforations and may be end-for-ended periodically with the drum at which time the shutter on the end being lowered may be closed to force air up through the dropping charge of waste material.
