The research in this paper aims to producing a home version machine that can dry and make biological waste into compact pellets. This product is made primarily for those who want to improve the environment and reduce the energy consuming process of separating the biological leftovers from other waste in the large processing plants and save money due to reduced pickups of waste. Since there is no commercially available product that does what we want to achieve we had to start from the beginning with both the design and the mechanical aspects. The result is a machine, that fits in our homes, and in an easy and inexpensive way reduces the amount of biological waste that needs to be collected by the public waste transportation system. This is done without reducing any of the energy in the waste and it can still be used to compost or by large-scale plants that use the waste to make electricity. The last aspect of drying the waste is that it stops bacteria growth; hence there will be no smell or decomposing.
