Abstract
Abstract An arrangement for mouldering organic waste material is disclosed, comprising a container in which an inclined path is provided along which waste material supplied to the container may slide under the action of gravity while undergoing a mouldering process. Liquid conducting means are provided to conduct urine and other liquid, which is supplied to the container separated from other waste material, to a region within the container located adjacent to the highest portion of the inclined path.
