The system is vacuum operated and consists of three main units: macerator or shredder macerator feeding stations, a vacuum unit, and a food waste tank. Food waste is macerated in the galley area. A small amount of water is added to create a slurry, which is then vacuum-collected into the food waste tank for storage to wait for further processing.
The vacuum system is fully automatic and can be controlled from the engine control room. A vacuum system combined with macerating feeding stations means that it is possible to use piping with a small diameter, making for a more cost-efficient and flexible design.
