LFC biodigester for marine applications
The LFC® biodigester is a commercial aerobic biodigester that decomposes food wastes within 24 hours. It uses a series of processes in which microorganisms break down biodegradable material in the presence of oxygen. The output is grey water that can be pumped directly overboard or treated by the vessel sewage treatment plant.
Using Power Knot’s LFC biodigesters on ships ensures that organic waste can be safely disposed of with no possibility of plastics entering the ocean. With hundreds of machines deployed across cruise ships, cargo ships, FSRUs, tankers, and mega yachts, Power Knot Ocean brings seven years of experience to solving problems of organic waste on vessels while meeting MARPOL regulations.
