The Firefly (MMAD_5) Digester System is a small-scale, modular, on-site waste management system that has been specifically designed to meet the needs of commercial waste producers. Applications include universities, shopping centres, military facilities, remote mine sites, zoos, amusement parks, small farms, and small food and beverage factories.

With a waste throughput of 200–500 t/year, the system uses dry anaerobic digestion/aerobic composting technology to produce biogas, biogas and compost, and compost.

The 20 x 20 m modular plug-and-play solution is easy to expand with the capability for two to eight modules. The unit is configurable in multiple ways to meet users’ requirements and it has an optional compost module for digestate treatment (pending confirmation of EOW requirements).

Features include: empowers businesses to divert organic waste from landfill; transforms organic waste into energy; produces a fertiliser substitute; the CHP (combined heat + power) generator has the capacity to generate electricity + hot water; and integrated SCADA system control panel for automated operating and data collection.

Suitable for vegetable and fruit scraps, bread, rice, grains, egg shells, paper/cardboard, cooked meat, newspaper, small cooked bones, coffee grounds, and hair and nail clippings, the system is compliant with all Australian standards.

The product is expected to be launched by early 2023.
