The LANE TURNER LT are lane turners for working in open, high lanes. They are the perfect solution for turning in closed buildings. 

The treatment of waste, such as the composting of organic waste or the biological drying of household waste, is associated with strong odors. Particularly in densely populated areas, the use of processes inside closed buildings is therefore recommended. The LANE TURNER was designed precisely for this purpose. Due to the high lane walls, they are particularly suitable for the treatment of sewage sludge or soil remediation. Especially when treating contaminated soil, reinfection of the material can be safely avoided. While the BACKHUS CON travels along the outside of the lanes when turning, the LANE TURNER travels directly on the lane walls. Thanks to proven sensor technology, there is no need for rail-based guidance. The LANE TURNER LT is available either with a spacious panoramic cabin for the driver or fully automated. They can be used both in flow through and batch operation.

Tunnel composting is even profitable with low input quantities. By increasing the modular tunnel units it can also be used for very large throughput quantities. 

Tunnel composting is suitable for aerobic treatment of bio waste and mixed household and kitchen waste as well as for composting of digestates of an upstream fermentation system. As part of the nutrient cycle of heterotrophic microorganisms, which disintegrate organic material in a controlled environment under the influence of atmospheric oxygen (aerobic) and transform it to water-soluble minerals and humus-rich compost in several intermediate steps, the composting process is significantly dependent on the process parameters oxygen, moisture content and temperature.

The widest range of machine widths for every application, the most comprehensive standard equipment and the best range of optional customization options make us the first choice on the market. Coupled with almost 40 years of experience, expert advice and excellentservice, today our Eggersmann BACKHUS stand for professional turning all over the world.

Biological drying stabilises the material, increases the calorific value (substitute fuel), reduces the volume and simplifies the separation of different components.

The CONVAERO drying system provides a controlled and monitored environment in which the micro-organisms decompose organic material under the specially developed CONVAERO membrane cover. An aeration system in the base provides a steady flow of air through the waste to remove moisture while maintaining sufficient heat for water evaporation. This utilises the natural process heat generated by the microorganisms present in the waste during the decomposition of the organic material. The temperature in the waste pile can thus rise to 60 to 70 °C. The water is efficiently evaporated without additional heat input. After a drying process lasting from two to four weeks, the rest of the waste is a dry (≤ 20% moisture), odourless and stable mixture that is safe to handle and easy to separate.

Oxygen supply, temperature, moisture - the CONVAERO system creates optimum conditions for the microorganisms required for composting. 

The CONAVERO membrane creates a controlled and monitored environment in which the microorganisms decompose the organic matter. The aeration system integrated into the base provides a steady flow of air through the waste to maintain aerobic conditions, creating an ideal environment for the composting process. The temperature rises to 55 - 65°C and ensures reliable hygienisation of the compost.
Depending on the composition of the input material, the ambient temperature and humidity, the logistics on the plant and any preceding and subsequent processes, the CONVAERO process and its capacity are adjusted to the desired degree of maturity (degree of rotting). Every product stage can be achieved, from fresh compost to fully matured compost. The material is covered for the entire duration of the process. Alternatively, it is possible to remove the covers during the later stabilisation and maturing phase.
