● Three PPCP (Polypropylene Co-polymer) Bins of 2.5-3 mm gauge, 32 cm height, 35 cm upper dia, and 27 cm bottom dia, 22 ltr Capacity with 1- 2 mm dia holes provided all round for ventilation. ● The bins contain 3 PPCP lids of 3 mm gauge, 40 cm dia duly having centre hole of 22 cm dia, fit for holding the upper one and covering the bottom bin. ● The upper most covering lid should contain a removable hot air ventilation mouth of 2 cm height, 30.5 cm diameter fitted at 31 cm diameter centre hole with a fully ventilated hot air cap with handle. ● PPCP tray of 2.5 cm height and 27cm dia provided at the bottom most portion for leachate collection. ● One block of microbes enriched Inoculum as a starter kit for water absorption. ● Three PPCP bins of 22 ltr. Capacity. ● Three lids for holding the upper bin duly meant for covering the bottom bin. ● One top most lid has a hot air ventilation mouth for ensuring the air circulation. ● A leachate collection tray at the bottom of most portions. ● One block of microbes enriched Inoculum as a starter kit for water absorption. ● Place the three bins over the lid and arrange them into one over another, the top most bin is covered with the lid having a hot air ventilation cap. ● Leachate collection tray is placed at the very bottom, it is optional to put a little salt in the tray for avoiding mosquito breeding. ● Spread a little soaked Inoculum at the bottom of the top most bin then start loading the bio waste into the bin as a thin layer. Again put the Inoculum over the biodegradable waste, cover the top most bin with hot air ventilated lid. Occasionally mix the fresh waste with the old waste by using a wooden spoon. After this keep the bin closed with the covering lid. ● One bucket will become full in 20 to 25 day time in a family of 5 members. ● Replace the filled bin with the empty one and place the ventilated lid over it. ● Repeat the same procedure for both the bins. ● By the time of filling the resting two bins the first one will be fully composted. Then empty the first one and start composting again. ● Dry the removed compost under the shade, then it can be used as manure in the garden. The fully composted waste can be used as a starter for the next cycle of composting. ● Periodically drain the leachate from the leachate collection tray and the drained leachate can be used as manure in the garden
