Organic-waste project checklist
Build a common basis for comparing recovery concepts. Characterize separate input streams before describing a proposed mixture.
The CSV includes columns for availability, source/date and your notes. The checklist does not require you to send information to BGF.
Feedstock
- Source and type of each input stream
- Daily and peak quantities, units and variability
- Composition, moisture and available solids data
- Packaging, grit and other contaminants
Collection & preparation
- Collection method, storage period and transport
- Separation or depackaging needs and expected rejects
- Prepared-feed characteristics and mixing assumptions
Project conditions
- Available footprint, utilities and operating capacity
- Intended treatment and recovery objectives
- Relevant existing equipment and interfaces
Outputs & validation
- Expected solid, liquid and gaseous output streams
- Product quality, intended users and acceptance requirements
- Storage, transport and alternative residual-management routes
- Evidence gaps, representative testing and decision deadline
This is an initial information checklist, not a laboratory instruction, safety assessment or detailed design specification. Select parameters and sampling arrangements with the responsible specialists.
