+//Drum composter: drum-shaped compost container with good mixing of the
+biomass for rapid composting of biowaste//
+**Bio-waste becomes valuable fertilizer**
+During composting, organic materials such as fruit and vegetable residues, egg shells and
+coffee grounds or garden waste are decomposed and converted into nutrient-rich humus,
+which can then be used as fertiliser in raised beds. There are many different types of
+compost containers. The material and the size of the compost container is important.
+They are made of wood, metal or plastic. It is important that the compost is always well
+aerated so that the organisms (bacteria, fungi, worms, insects, etc.) that are responsible for
+the composting process are always supplied with air and water. In the drum composter the
+mixing is very easy, it was built by students of the university in Kleve within the scope of a
+student project.
