Failure of the Buyer to reject the Initial Product before the end of the Rejection Period shall constitute acceptance by Buyer of the Initial Product.

(c)            After the Initial Product, Ecos must deliver and install each additional Product sold to Buyer hereunder within ninety (90) days of the date of the purchase order. Title and risk of loss to each Product shall pass to Buyer after completion of installation of the Product.

Products are considered Non-Conforming Products if damage renders them unsuitable for their intended purpose, unless the damage is a result of a Customer's failure to use the System in accordance with the Operation Manual.

2.5            Rights with respect to Non-Conforming Products.

(a)            Buyer will have the right to reject any Non-Conforming Products within a reasonable period of time after installation, or with respect to declaration by a Governmental Authority within a reasonable period of time after such declaration.

(c)            Buyer, in its sole and absolute discretion, may require Ecos to repair or replace the rejected Non-Conforming Product as soon as possible, or cancel the applicable purchase order for the rejected Non-Conforming Product. If payment has already been made for the rejected Non-Conforming Product for which the purchase order is cancelled, then Ecos will promptly refund such payment to Buyer.

(b)            During the Warranty Period, Ecos will provide all replacement parts, including the Critical Components, to Buyer without any charge. During the Warranty Period, Ecos will at all times maintain a reasonable and continuous spare parts inventory of Critical Components at each location with a Product. If Ecos fails at any time to maintain the spare parts inventory as required herein, Buyer may procure such inventory from another supplier and invoice Ecos for 125% of the aggregate cost of such inventory to Buyer, which amount shall be immediately due and payable by Ecos upon receipt of the invoice. In the event that, during the Warranty Period, a Customer is required to use Critical Components from the inventory to make repairs that are not subject to the warranty described in Section 3.2(a) above, Ecos will invoice Buyer for the cost of the inventory and repairs, if performed by Ecos. Buyer will pay the amount of the invoice within 15 days of receipt. After the end of the Warranty Period, Ecos will work with the Buyer to establish a supply chain through which Buyer can obtain Critical Components and other replacement parts.

(c)            During the first year of the Warranty Period, Ecos will service the Products and make repairs required without any charge. Ecos will provide all such services within a reasonable time after receiving a notice from Buyer.

(e)            Notwithstanding the foregoing, Ecos is permitted to invoice Buyer for the reasonable cost of any repairs made to a Product required as a result of a Customer's failure to use the Product in accordance with the Operation Manual.

3.3            Insurance. Ecos shall maintain, at its sole cost and expense, a comprehensive general liability insurance policy, from a carrier reasonably acceptable to Buyer, with coverage for bodily injury, property damage, products liability and contractual liability with a combined single limit of at least $1,000,000 per occurrence. The insurance shall be issued on an occurrence basis. The insurance may consist of basic coverage plus an umbrella policy as long as the insurance aggregates $2,000,000 of coverage. The insurance policy shall name the Buyer and LRS as an additional insured, waive subrogation in favor of LRS and Buyer and include a provision for 30 days advance notice to Buyer in the

Description and Specifications

The Product/System redirects all organic MSW and yard waste from landfill and composters with the byproduct of organic fertilizer, chicken, or fish feed.

The process takes 7 days. Total time is dependent on water content. Ideal water content is 65%.

ECOS, Bio-Compost is the best technology for high-speed fermentation for organic waste that includes: organic MSW; fruits; vegetables; yard waste; all types of fats and meats; wood (must be in small chips).

The Bio-compost method can ferment organic wastes with moisture content up to 75% utilizing patented, aerobic fermentation technology and beneficial microbes.

The extremely fast fermentation bacillus process is further enhanced by the temperature being electronically maintained at 60 o ~ 70 O C, and monitored, with stirring action and continuous air injection. The Bio-Compost aerobic high-speed fermenter is a vertical sealed structure with a very small footprint. All processes are aerobic and no methane is produced. Thermal oxidation and other processes eliminate odors. There is zero leachate.

Organic matter is inputted either through a batch or continuous process. The inputs are stirred into the fermenter inoculated with our special aerobic bacteria. Fresh sources of oxygen keep the fermentation environment oxygen rich. The stirring, oxygen source and input (food scraps, yard waste, various sludge's, manure sludge, slaughter by-products) is an oxidation process, the heat evaporates most of the water which reduces the volume leaving the byproduct which can be an organic fertilizer or organic chicken, pig, or fish food depending on input.

Fermentation equipment processing quantity and consumed power






(2) Chicken manure quantity and overhaul calculation

a. Ventilation fermentation container capacity calculation
 
 - Water content of input raw material (%): Livestock manure +
(sawdust or dry chicken manure) =65%
 
 - Total volume of fermentation container input raw material (m3/day)
 
= Total weight of input raw material -- Weight
before fermentation = 12 - 0.65
 
= 18.5 m3/day

b. Calculation of input raw material content
 
 - Weight of input raw material dry solids (ton/day)
 
= (12 x (100 – 65))/100
 
= 4.2 ton/day
 
 - Water content of input raw materials (ton/day)
 
= Total weight of input raw materials - Weight of input raw
 
material dry solids
4

= 12 - 4.2
= 7.8 ton/day

c. Calculation of water content after fermentation
 
 - Weight of fermentation raw material dry solids (ton/day)
 
= Weight of input raw material dry solids/100 - water content after
fermentation) x water content                            after fermentation
= 4.2/(100-25) x 25
= 1.4 ton/day

d. Water removal after fermentation (ton/day)
 
= Water content of input raw material - Water content
after fermentation = 7.8 - 1.4
= 6.4 ton/day

(4) Pig manure capacity calculation and overhaul calculation

a. Ventilation fermentation container capacity calculation
 
- Water content of input raw material (%): Livestock manure + (sawdust or dry chicken
manure) = 65%
 
- Total volume of input raw material to fermentation container (m3/day)
 
= Total quantity of input raw material ± Volume before fermentation
= 10 + 0.65
= 15.4 m7day

b. Calculation of input raw material content
 
Weight of input raw material dry solids (ton/day)
= (10 x (100 – 65))/100
= 3.5 ton/day



Water content of input raw material (ton/day)
 
= Total weight of input raw material - Weight of input raw material dry solids
 
= 10 - 3.5
 
= 6.5 ton/day

c. Calculation of water content after fermentation
 
 - Weight of fermentation raw material dry solids (ton/day)
 
= Weight of input raw material dry solids +(100 – water content
after fermentation) x water content after fermentation
 
= 3.5 + (100 - 25) x 25
 
= 1.17 ton/day

d. Water removal after fermentation (ton/day)
 
= Water content of input raw material - Water content after fermentation
 
= 6.5 - 1.17
 
= 5.33 ton/day
