XXL rotting tunnels by Eggersmann for composting plant in Luxembourg

Eggersmann Anlagenbau built a new composting plant in Monnerich, Luxembourg for the client syndicate Minett-Kompost. The official inauguration took place on 1 July 2022 in the presence of Luxembourg`s Minister of the Environment Joëlle Welfring.

Eggersmann Anlagenbau replaced an aging composting plant of the "Wendelin" type with state-of-the-art technology. Due to the hall geometry of the old plant, the longest Eggersmann rotting tunnels to date, 42 metres in length, were built here. A total of 8 rotting tunnels with tunnel filling unit as well as the associated conveying and exhaust air technology were included in the scope of supply. In addition, a FORUS shredder, a TERRA SELECT trommel screen and a star screen deck, also from Eggersmann, are used in the new plant - all are operated purely electrically.

The plant processes a large part of Luxembourg`s organic and green waste. The throughput amounts to 20,000 tons per year.
