Abstract
A food waste composter is a machine intended to effectively break down organic food waste into compost by controlled aerobic decomposition. Unlike conventional approaches of food waste disposal such landfilling or incineration, which relate to environmental issues. This research seeks to improve a current composter machine to attract more customer to use it compare throw it into trash bin. The Composter’s design is focusing economical, portability, odourless, and noise reduction, as it being redesigned to seek effectively turn organic food waste into compost. Utilising SolidWorks for design and later fabricate, the project aims for a proof-of-concept prototype satisfying high efficiency criteria and financial viability. The main objectives are creating a composter that satisfies user needs, by using market research to guide design decisions, and starting a development process that repeatedly improves the product design. The project's importance rests in its ability to create excellent compost, therefore improving plant health and lowering reliance on synthetic fertilisers. By guiding organic waste towards sustainable method, it resulted related environmental effects being reduced as composting food waste is better than conventional method to get rid of it. Anticipated results include the creation of excellent compost fit for use in gardens and plant nourishment by including effective composting techniques such as Bokashi to speed the process. The prototype highlights its possible wider acceptance in waste management techniques since it seeks to show lower environmental effect than conventional garbage disposal techniques. In conclusion, this project addresses significant waste management and environmental problems by supporting sustainable behaviours through composting methods, therefore strengthening its natural environment.
