(DE19649963-A1)      A process and assembly ferments and composts organic wastes. The novelty is that: (a) the assembly incorporates a biogas generator (1) which ferments simple organic waste; (b) the biogas generator (1) is connected by a pipe line (2) to a tank (3) containing the fermentation substrate; (c) the tank (3) is connected by a pipe (4) (i) to a composting pit for wastes retaining some physical structure (5), (ii) and/or to an enclosed composting plant for any contaminated organic waste also retaining some physical structure, and (iii) waste from a composting reactor (6); (d) also claimed is a method of processing the waste and a biogas generator (1).    USE -   The process and assembly converts organic wastes to biogas, compost and liquid manure. The organic residues are processed in separate batches of e.g. uneaten food, food waste, vegetable waste from kitchens, slaughterhouses, dairies, farms and food-processing industry. Residues processed include fats, organic solvents and other organic residues from the pharmaceutical and cosmetics industries, organic household residues, waste wood and polluted soil.    ADVANTAGE -   The assembly is rapidly adapted to handle different types of organic wastes in batches of different size.
