2 OVERVIEW Animal mortality is one of the more difficult components of animal agriculture. Advanced Composting Technologies solution transforms this environmental liability into a renewable resource that adds value to any farm. 3 FIRST STAGE COMPOSTING DAYS In 2002, we began development of an innovative on-farm mortality disposal facility that quickly, efficiently, and safely turns dead to dirt in days. Forced Forced Aeration Aeration Is Is Key Key Advanced Composting Technologies has worked closely with farmers, integrators, regulators, USDA-NRCS and others to develop a long-lasting and environmentally friendly composting technology. The result is a simple, long-term, economical and proven solution that requires no fossil fuels. Being performance driven, we continually push the limits on loading rates, cycle times and pathogen kill that makes our system second to none. We ve combined all the pieces of the puzzle to guarantee it will work great for poultry, swine and cattle, even during spikes in mortality.

3 HOW IT OPERATES Increase Biosecurity Advanced Composting Technologies process is a simple to operate, biosecure system. Facilities are designed to accommodate tremendous daily spikes. You can even combine multiple animal species in a bin. Farmer-friendly for minimal grower involvement; daily operations and maintenance will not take much of your time. WE KNOW THE SCIENCE OF COMPOSTING 1 PRE-MIX We ve spent years learning the science so that you don t have to. Whether it is a technical problem or a simple change in technique, we have the answers. Our knowledge of the regulations, options and flow of animal mortality means we can handle whatever challenges your farm may encounter. TAKING COMPOSTING TO THE NEXT LEVEL Founded in 1998, the company put its biological engineering experience to task, developing a forced aeration technology for animal manure. In 2002, Advanced Composting Technologies broadened to include animal mortality and, more recently, food waste.

4 THE BASICS OF COMPOSTING Composting is a naturally occurring biological process where microbes do all the work. The key is to give them what they need, when they need it, in the right proportions and let them do the work. The process drives the system. SYSTEM STRUCTURE AIR Even Air Distribution Inside A-Frame Structure In-Line Shed Style Air Compressor Advanced Composting Technologies developed the optimum composting system which includes the structure, process and operation. The simple system includes proprietary compost mixer and aeration, concrete bins, roofed structure, customized recipes and automated controls. We put the system together right.
