Power Knot Unveils the BCG-315 Grinder
In a significant move for the organic waste management industry, Power Knot LLC has launched its newest innovation, the BCG-315 grinder. Engineered specifically for heavy-duty processing, this robust machine aims to streamline the handling of dense organic waste before it undergoes composting, recycling, or digestion. Power Knot, widely recognized for its leadership in on-site organic waste management solutions, has combined advanced engineering with practical design to cater to the needs of various facilities.
Advanced Features of the BCG-315 Grinder
The BCG-315 is particularly suited for processing a diverse range of challenging organic materials, such as animal bones, fruit pits, and tough plant stalks. With an impressive throughput of 180 kg/h (approximately 400 lb/h) and the capability of handling materials up to 400 mm (16 inches) long, it makes substantial reductions in waste volume. Notably, the grinder's design ensures a consistent particle size of 15–35 mm (0.6–1.3 inches), which is crucial for efficient follow-up processing. This precision not only reduces the bulk of waste but also minimizes odors and significantly enhances hygiene conditions.
To achieve this, the grinder employs a double-shaft, low-speed, high-torque shredding mechanism powered by a 5½ kW motor. This setup provides reliable performance even with the toughest organic materials, making it an indispensable tool for various waste facilities. The heat-treated cutting knives and a K-Series gearbox ensure longevity under demanding circumstances, while a custom-designed hopper allows for safe and ergonomic loading of waste materials. An intuitive wall-mounted control box featuring emergency stop and reverse modes facilitates quick action in case of blockages, enhancing operational safety.
Flexible Installation Options
Understanding that different facilities have varying layouts and needs, Power Knot offers an optional reinforced modular frame for the BCG-315 grinder. This adjustable frame can be disassembled easily for transport and installation, allowing for optimal placement and usage based on individual facility requirements.
By pre-processing dense organic waste, the BCG-315 not only enhances the effectiveness of Power Knot's LFC biodigesters but also supports waste reduction efforts across various systems. Organizations utilizing this grinder benefit from reduced disposal and transportation costs, improved safety protocols, and minimized risks associated with pests and contamination.
Additionally, the grinder contributes to recycling initiatives and byproduct recovery, producing valuable materials like bone meal, fertilizer, and biofuel feedstock.
A Commitment to Sustainability
Iain Milnes, the President of Power Knot, expressed his enthusiasm for the BCG-315, emphasizing its vital role in providing reliable performance for processing dense organic materials. He stated, "The BCG-315 delivers the performance and reliability our customers need when processing dense organic material. Paired with our LFC biodigesters, it forms a complete solution that helps organizations cut waste, improve sanitation, and meet sustainability targets."
The BCG-315 grinder is now available globally, reflecting Power Knot's commitment to advancing waste management solutions that aid in environmental sustainability. For further information on this groundbreaking product, interested parties can visit
