READY TO EXPAND INTO COMPOSTING?
A COMMON CHALLENGE
HANDLING DOA ANIMAL WASTE
When faced with dead-on-arrival animals, processors and ag producers have traditionally turned to disposal methods that are inefficient and/or costly.
Incineration – Slow, heavily regulated, and emissions-producing, with high operating costs.
burial – Requires space, manpower, and excavation machinery, while potentially posing risks to water quality.
landfilling – Hauling fees and biosecurity concerns are disruptive to operations, creating costly backlogs.
traditional composting – Unaided by equipment, decomposition is slow and labor-intensive, with inconsistent results.
Embracing Automated Composting Solutions
Investing in enclosed, on-site composting technology is saving businesses time and money.
Optimized Efficiency
Equipment is built to shorten composting timelines with automated aeration, temperature control, and reduced manual labor and is designed for consistent performance all year round.
Improved Biosecurity
Composting reduces tipping, hauling, and fuel costs over time, and it is environmentally responsible — creating a soil amendment that can be used by the producer or sold locally, while preventing harmful emissions or contaminated runoff.
Reduced Complexity
Plus, keeping disposal in-house reduces risk and complexity, so it is easier to meet regulatory demands.
ANCO’s rendering technology can adapt beyond traditional applications, creating sustainable waste solutions that benefit the environment and drive business growth. Our team can custom-engineer a streamlined composting system, integrating the Duracut Rendering Shredder and a mixer to create a seamless on-site process.

While many processors and producers are expanding into composting for the first time, ROC Rutledge of ACE Composting had been experimenting with traditional methods for decades before approaching ANCO for a custom solution.
