[USCC] Pelletizing equipment for compost

[alexassoc@earthlink.net]

Tammy,
I have been working with a pelletized compost product. It is NOT a simple
task (mechanically). Although agricultural / industrial pellet mills (and
associated equipment) have been used - they require modification and intense
maintenance, AND the correct compost product.

Subject: [USCC] Pelletizing equipment for compost

Greetings Composters,

	I am looking for information about pelletizing compost and/or
biosolids to reach additional markets, for ease of spreading, and for
storage.  Does anyone know who makes equipment for such a  purpose and any
information about how well it works?  I'd also love to find out if anyone
you know of is doing that.

Thank you!
