Green Cone Solar Digester System
You already recycle. You may even already compost your garden
waste. Now, with The Green Cone by Solarcone, you can eliminate your
kitchen waste which are not handled by traditional compost bins. Thus, reducing your family's trash by 20% and making your garbage easier to recycle.
The Green Cone Solar Digester System reduces food waste to its natural
components of water, carbon dioxide and a small residue. The
solar-heated garden unit safely eliminates all cooked and uncooked food
waste, including meat, fish, bones, dairy products, vegetables and
fruit.
The Green Cone System allows you to:
- Reduce your household waste by 20% or more.
- Dispose of food waste immediately.
- Keep your garbage cans clean and odor-free.
- Keep remaining household waste clean and ready for recycling.
But most of all, the Green Cone system is beneficial to the
environment. By using it, you can help conserve our precious landfill
space and reduce the use of garbage truck fuel. Most importantly,
you'll conserve our earth's precious natural resources, by decreasing
the workload of large-scale treatment plants. So a small lifestyle change can mean big benefits for the environment.
Whether you're an environmentally responsible
homeowner, a large family with significant kitchen waste, or the
manager of a community recycling program, the Green Cone System is an
invaluable tool to help you eliminate your food disposal problem...

The Green Cone is a four-part injection molded unit, comprised of:
Lower base unit basket, installed below the ground;Black inner cone; Green outer plastic cone; Custom-fitted lid.
The diameter of the outer Green Cone is 23 inches at its base and 11.5 inches at the lid end. The in-ground food waste digestion chamber is 17 inches deep. The Green Cone stands less than 28 inches above the ground.
Each Green Cone Kit Includes:
- Lower base unit basket, installed below the ground
- Black inner cone
- Green outer plastic cone
- Custom-fitted lid
- Kitchen caddy (1 Gallon) for storing and transporting food waste
- 1 package of BioWish Compost Boost Accelerator
How it works:
The Green Cone is designed to accept all household food waste, including vegetable
scraps, raw and cooked meat or fish, bones, dairy products and other
organic kitchen waste (e.g. tea bags, bread, etc.). There is a
convenient one-gallon Kitchen Caddy for collecting and carrying household food waste to the Green Cone.
The patented design of the unit utilizes a solar heating effect between
the inner and outer cones to promote air circulation, which facilitates
the growth of beneficial micro-organisms and the desirable aerobic
digestion process. The household food waste is converted into water,
carbon dioxide and a small amount of residue.
Because over 90% of the waste material in the Green
Cone is absorbed safely as water by the soil, the Green Cone only needs
to be cleaned once every few years when treated with care.
The Green Cone Digester works 365 days a year. The level of food waste may
rise during winter but should drop down when the weather gets warmer.
If decomposition slows during very cold periods, use the natural Green
Cone Accelerator Powder.
