NOVELTY - The organic waste management system comprises a container having an internal chamber (22), a dry mix, a drying system, a mixing system, a discharge outlet, and a control system. The internal chamber includes a waste inlet configured for receiving a supply of organic waste. The dry mix is configured to be disposed within the internal chamber, and contains a mixture of a dry substrate having a moisture content of less than 40 wt.% and a nutrient additive. The drying system is configured for generating an air flow within the internal chamber.    USE - The organic waste management system is useful in a home, a supermarket, a restaurant and a hospital, where the organic waste includes a yard waste such as leaves and plant or grass clippings and food waste including leftover, expired, spoiled or other unwanted or unsafe food products and cooked or uncooked food products typically derived from plant or animal sources including vegetables, fruits, meat, fish, poultry, dairy products, bones, shells, peels, pits, coffee grounds, fats oils and greases.    ADVANTAGE - The system efficiently and rapidly manages the decomposition of the organic waste onsite with less water consumption and without environmental pollution.    DETAILED DESCRIPTION - The organic waste management system comprises a container having an internal chamber (22), a dry mix, a drying system, a mixing system, a discharge outlet, and a control system. The internal chamber includes a waste inlet configured for receiving a supply of organic waste. The dry mix is configured to be disposed within the internal chamber, and contains a mixture of a dry substrate having a moisture content of less than 40 wt.% and a nutrient additive. The drying system is configured for generating an air flow within the internal chamber. The mixing system is configured for mixing the contents of the internal chamber. The discharge outlet is configured for facilitating periodic removal of the contents of the internal chamber. The dry substrate comprises wood chips, wood shavings, a wood flour, or a saw dust. The dry mix is provided to fill 33% of the volume of internal chamber. The nutrient additive is adapted for aiding in the decomposition of organic waste, and contains minerals, amino acids or vitamins. The mixing system comprises a contact element that is disposed on a rotary element for mixing the contents of the internal chamber. The rotary element comprises a shaft disposed within the internal chamber, and a drum that defines the internal chamber. The contact element is disposed on an interior wall of the drum. The control system is configured for controlling operation of the waste management system in accordance with a desired control process. An INDEPENDENT CLAIM is included for a dry mix in a waste management system.    DESCRIPTION OF DRAWING(S) - The diagram shows a schematic front sectional view of an organic waste management system.
