Method and apparatus for moving and stirring compost

Abstract

The invention concerns a method for operating a machine stirring (M) fermentable matter (D) in a fermenting installation. Said method is characterised in that it consists in stirring the fermentable matter (D) by turning it and blowing it to the rear of the machine (M) so as to gradually move it along said passage of a first feeding end (Ce) towards a discharging end (Cs). The invention also concerns the machine (M) consisting of a stirring member (300) comprising a propeller shaft (310) peripherally provided with stirring tools (320) arranged peripherally around said propeller shaft (310) in a pair of reverse pitch turns symmetrically arranged relative to the perpendicular median plane of symmetry of said propeller shaft (310). The invention is useful for producing aerobic fermented mixtures.
