The perfect control for optimum aeration Aeration fields, open or half open Freely settable fermentation phases control aeration in two sections based on time, compost temperature and oxygen content in the compost. The control bunkers or fermentation tunnels principle is based on oxygen measurement in the compost, while aeration - the LUMINA 751 will perfectly control is based on a variable time clock. The activation time of this clock control compost decomposition to create an end product ideal for further processing in the varies depending on the oxygen content in the compost. The optimal...
