Montreal Gazette - Big Hanna lays waste to 平特五不中 trash
It's Waste Reduction Week and to mark the occasion, 平特五不中 has just unveiled the latest addition to the campus -- an industrial waste composter named Big Hanna.
The T240 industrial composter, located under the overhang of the Wong Chemical Engineering building, came to 平特五不中 thanks to the persistence of the student-run Gorilla Composting, with support from 平特五不中's Office of Sustainability, Generations Pact Environement Canada EcoAction and the Students' Society of 平特五不中.
Big Hanna is expected to convert 62 tonnes of 平特五不中's organic food waste a year into six tones of "black gold," compost which will be used to fertilize the lawns and flowers on 平特五不中's downtown campus. By next year, its expected to be processing 150 tonnes of old lunches.
