Materials & Steps

Material:

1. Container with Lid: Choose a container with a lid that's large enough to hold your organic waste and accommodate some liquid at the bottom.
2. Absorbent Material: You'll need an absorbent material, such as shredded newspaper, sawdust, or coconut coir. This will help absorb the liquid and reduce odors.

Steps:

1. Prepare the Container: Place the absorbent material at the bottom of the container.
2. Collect Organic Waste: As you generate organic waste in your kitchen, place it on top of the absorbent material. This can include fruit and vegetable scraps, coffee grounds, eggshells, and other compostable materials.
3. Absorb Leachate: As the organic waste breaks down, it will release some liquid (leachate). The absorbent material will help soak up this liquid and reduce any odors. Empty the leachate-absorbing material periodically to prevent it from becoming oversaturated.
4. Use the Compost: Once the organic waste has decomposed sufficiently, you can transfer it to your compost pile or bin. The absorbed leachate will have been minimized, making it easier to manage the waste without excessive liquid.

There are several materials that you can easily purchase or find in your home to use as leachate-absorbing material for your kitchen waste. Here are some options:

1. Shredded Newspaper: Shredded newspaper is a readily available and biodegradable option. It's effective at absorbing liquid and can help reduce odors.
2. Sawdust: Sawdust, particularly from untreated wood, can also be used to absorb leachate. Make sure the sawdust is clean and free from any chemicals or contaminants.
3. Coconut Coir: Coconut coir is a natural fiber extracted from coconut husks. It's commonly used as a growing medium and can also work well as an absorbent material.
4. Paper Towels or Napkins: If you have used paper towels or napkins that aren't heavily soiled with food or grease, you can use them to absorb leachate.
5. Cardboard: Pieces of clean, untreated cardboard can also be torn or shredded to create an absorbent layer.
6. Dry Leaves: Dry leaves, especially those from non-toxic plants, can serve as a natural absorbent material.
   

Best Solution

What is Corospill

• Corospill plays a vital role in effectively absorbing waste leachate, managing its microbial processes, and preventing any unpleasant odors. Through these actions, it ensures that the waste is rendered environmentally safe and sound.
• Corospill consists of a combination of superabsorbent polymers, nanoparticles, and plant compounds. The specific polymer within Corospill functions as a leachate coagulant, while the nanoparticles serve as microbial neutralizers, effectively addressing leachate-related issues.

keep in mind the following tips

Regularly check and replace the absorbent material to prevent oversaturation and maintain effective absorption.

If you're concerned about odors, you can sprinkle a small amount of Product between layers of waste and absorbent material.

Make sure the absorbent material doesn't interfere with the breakdown of your organic waste. It should be mixed in or layered within the waste.

Remember that while these materials can help manage leachate and odors to some extent, the most effective way to handle kitchen waste and leachate is through proper composting methods. If you're interested in more advanced composting solutions, you might consider setting up a compost bin, worm bin, or using a compost tumbler to efficiently manage your kitchen waste while producing nutrient-rich compost for your garden.
