Organic waste carbonizer

A method for transforming waste into carbon in a carbonization chamber, said method comprising:

• providing a carbonization chamber having an interior that is air-tight and sealable, and loading the carbonization chamber with organic waste materials;
• then performing aerobic digestion upon the organic waste materials within the carbonization chamber, with a first mesophilic aerobic inoculum at between 45° C. and 55° C. performed with constant mixing and aeration;
• followed by thermophilic aerobic digestion with a second aerobic inoculum at between 55° C. and 65° C. performed with constant mixing and aeration;
• followed by anaerobic digestion with an anaerobic inoculum at temperatures varying between 20° C. and 57° C., performed under conditions of low oxygen;
• then drying organic waste materials within the carbonization chamber under at least a partial vacuum, at a temperature of at least 200° C.;
• and
• then in a final carbonization step, heating the interior of the carbonization chamber to a temperature of between 300° C. and 800° C. so as to result in the carbonization of the biologically degraded and dried organic waste material inside the carbonization chamber.
