OREX is SFC’s proprietary innovation, designed to efficiently separate biodegradable organics from inorganic materials and lignocellulosic fibres from mixed municipal waste. OREX automatically segregates mixed municipal waste into organic (wet) and inorganic (dry) fractions in a single step reducing the need for manual oversight, translating into lower ongoing operational costs and promotion of reuse.

OREX is a multi-stage system designed to extract maximum organics from the mixed waste and preparation of de-gritted organic slurry for downstream digesters resulting into homogenous pulped slurry having >98% biodegradable material, largely free of contaminants and non-biodegradable fractions which enhance the bio-methanization process inside digesters. This technology is particularly adept at processing the typical municipal solid waste found in India, which characteristically includes a diverse mix of bio-waste, inerts, textiles, glass, wood, metal, rubber, plastic, paper, and miscellaneous items.
